Author: Robin Martin
Pub. Date: April 28,

Publisher: Bennett Lane Press
Formats: Paperback,
eBook
Pages: 320
One super
intelligent, super hot alien Zoe can handle, after all she loves Rion. But two
spells trouble, especially when it's Pandora. This sassy alien has one agenda,
to have as much fun as she can before her people realise she's gone rogue and
materialised in human form. Pandora charms students and teachers alike as she
parties her way through the term, but still aces her studies. Even Rion is
influenced by her as she challenges his beliefs, and he begins to question
whether he is still more alien than human. He and Zoe are finally together, but
Zoe wonders for how long. She has other worries too, especially about her
mother's health. Everything is changing in this final year of high school. But
even though Zoe is crazy about Rion, can their new relationship last not only
the ups and downs of human problems, but alien ones too?
About books 1 and 2:
Title: THE ALIEN
WITHIN (Book Two of The Alien Chronicles)
Author: Robin Martin
Pub. Date: December 21,
2017
Publisher: Bennett Lane Press
Formats: Paperback,
eBook
Pages: 292
Rion has a secret that only Zoe knows. If only she could remember. But
he won't tell her because, well…who wants to be with a 4000 year old
alien? Even if he does look seventeen. When his totally unsuitable guardian,
Archimedes, forces him to return to East Valley High, he can't help but hope
the bond between them is still there. Will Zoe learn to like the human he has
become? Yet nothing goes the way he hopes, especially when Harry Crosby turns
up and starts turning heads. Maybe even Zoe's? And then there's Jas, who makes
it clear she still likes Rion and will stop at nothing to convince him they
belong together. As if. Rion's heart still belongs to the one person who seems
to have forgotten the connection they once shared. High school, relationships,
and dealing with embarrassing 'Uncle' Archimedes cause him more problems than
working out what's at the bottom of a black hole. Who knew that being human
would be so hard?
Title: MY
ALIEN (Book One of The Alien Chronicles)
Author: Robin Martin
Pub. Date: November 1,
2016
Publisher: Bennett Lane Press
Formats: Paperback,
eBook
Pages: 195
Zoe Brennan has everything sorted. Finally, she's good friends with the
ultra cool Jas and part of her popular group. She even has plans to make new
boy, Chad Everett, fall for her. But on one disastrous day at the beach all
that changes when she encounters Rion, an extremely annoying alien who informs
her they are connected - for life. Bossy and egotistical, he has no hesitation
in telling her that exercise, studying and green tea should take precedence
over boys, parties and fast food. Like that was ever going to fly. But the
trouble really starts when he turns up at East Valley High. Students, teachers
and parents alike fall under his spell. Only Zoe knows his secret and even if
she told her friends, no one would believe her. What is she going to do about
her alien? 'My Alien' is a humorous, yet touching YA book about two beings from
different worlds who, despite everything, not only learn about each other but
also about themselves.
Now on to the excerpt!
I sprinted up
those stairs like an Olympic athlete, just in time to see Tiberius exit the
room with an expensive-looking red stiletto in his mouth.
‘Uh oh, those
are Mummy’s Choo shoes,’ Emerson said as he followed the dog
into his own bedroom. The dog disappeared under the low, queen-sized bed.
‘Tell me that
isn’t a Jimmy Choo,’ I said, wondering if Mrs Stewart
would ever let me babysit again.
‘Yes, that’s it.’ He looked at me, wrinkling his nose
just like his mother did. ‘I think they’re kinda
expensive.’
‘Just a little,’ I said, hearing the despair in my
own voice. ‘We need to get that back off Tiberius before he damages it.’ But the bed was too low for me to
get under, and even for Emerson, it would be a tight fit. ‘I’ll get the broom and maybe we can
coax him out. You stay here and don’t let him out of this room or we’re both going to be in mega
trouble.’
‘Sure. I think
he’s calmed down
now. I can hear him chewing.’
Either I’d never babysit again, or I’d have to do it for free until
Emerson was grown up. And even then, I’d never be able to pay her back the cost of those
shoes.
