I swear I can&apos;t get enough of her books... onto the next one.&quot;</div><div></div><div>&quot;Scorching hot storytelling, when can you be abducted by an alien and find the only one meant for you.&quot;</div><div></div><div>&quot;She loved animals. Lol. Every dragon wanted to eat her babies. Lol. Hilarious and fun this book had it all. Loved it!&quot;</div><div></div><div>&quot;I am so in love with all of S.E Smith&apos;s books the love stories and humor are literally out of this world! I&apos;m so glad I read her books.&quot;</div><div></div><div>&quot;Great series of books. The books are all woven together, but is about the women individually.&quot;</div><div></div><div>&quot;Ariel and Mandra&apos;s story is just as good as the others in this series. Love the humor in the story lines as well as the strength shown by the women. I also like how the stories intertwined.&quot;</div><div></div><div>&quot;S.E. Smith writes books that kept me reading till the early hours of the morning.&quot;</div><div></div><div>&quot;I was looking forward to this book, and it didn&apos;t disappoint. The fun of her animal obsession, and it&apos;s effect on the carnivorous dragons around her.&quot;</div><div></div><div>&quot;Loved how all the characters intertwined and developed their own story lines.&quot;</div><div></div><div>&quot;I am new to S.E. Smith, but found I totally enjoyed &quot;Ambushing Ariel&quot;. I enjoyed the lightheartedness of the story and the relationship Ariel developed. Ariel is a great character.&quot;</div></div>

   **Acknowledgments**
  
  I would like to thank my husband Steve for believing in me and being proud
  enough of me to give me the courage to follow my dream. I would also like to
  give a special thank you to my sister and best friend Linda who not only
  encouraged me to write but who also read the manuscript.
