'As sexy as it is nerdy, this book is perfect for anyone who has ever looked at the night sky and wondered what was up there' - Navessa Allen, New York Times best-selling author of Lights Out


A chance at love might not be out of this world in this astronomically charming romantic comedy from the USA Today bestselling author of Love and Other Conspiracies.

Los Angeles social media influencer El Martin seems to have a picture-perfect life. But what El wants more than anything is to find something real to make her heart race in a way it hasnโ€™t in years. She doesnโ€™t expect that feeling to come from capturing footage of an unidentified flying . . . thing, much less from the charming Man in Black who keeps following her around.

Agent Carter Brody is trying his best to keep the Private Intelligence Sector afloat by dragging their hopelessly out-of-date office into this century, even though what he really wants to do is follow in his fatherโ€™s footsteps by identifying and hiding extraterrestrial sightings. He gets his chance after being assigned to Elโ€™s case and is stopped in his tracks not only by her ingenuity and confidence but also by an unnerving coincidenceโ€”her sighting looks eerily like what Carter himself saw right before a family tragedy.

The deeper El and Carter fall into the mystery, the harder it is for them to ignore their growing chemistry as their own alien feelings become dangerously terrestrial.
