A Layperry’s Heart by Toby Wise

It turns out every sci-fi romance novel was wrong about the whole ‘alien moving next door’ thing.

Aldo didn’t know what to expect when he realized an alien had moved next door, but Gendry wasn’t it. The towering purple alien is awkward, kind, and unimaginably hot. Aldo had given up on dating, but that was when his dating pool only consisted of other humans.
With a promise to keep an eye on Christian, Gendry visits Earth. He wants to learn more about humans but in the process, gives his heart to one in particular. His visit is only a year long, but that’s more than enough time to fall in love with Aldo.

Will Aldo come back to Gendry’s home planet, or is their love destined to be cut short?
