Lunar Uprising: Rogar Lunar Uprising Book Two by Cyndi Friberg

I received a copy of this ebook arc from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. 

This is the first book I have read by this author. It is the second book in this series and while it can be read as a standalone - the primary couple reaches an HEA; the over arching plot continues throughout the series and so the ending for that plot ends somewhat abruptly and obviously continues on to the next book however I would not necessarily categorize it as a cliffhanger. 

This is an alien - fated mate scenario but our heroine is also intelligent and has her own job to do and goals and strengths which can sometimes be lacking in this genre. 

There is mention of the cities and ships themselves being biological, autonomous and able to communicate. That was somewhat glossed over and I hope is explored further in a later book - because what a unique concept.

I enjoyed the characters, the banter and the world building. This is an open door steamy romance but there is more plot involving adventure and political maneuvering than steam. 

I did catch 8 typographical errors. Largely just misuse of similar words - what/want, if/it, etc. Not horribly distracting but as I believe this is not an uncorrected copy - could have done without. Therefore 4/5 stars.
