About book Healing In His Wings (2010)

I've meant to read this for a long time now, and lately I've been on a SF kick, especially an interspecies union kick, so I thought I'd pull this one out. Though the writing is solid, it wasn't much for me. There's very little little world building and the aliens weren't very alien, just humans with wings. What I like about the alien/human pairing in these stories is working through the differences, the culture shock, the alien world... whatever it is as long as it is actually alien.The romance is really quite sweet and I imagine that most people will enjoy it. There wasn't enough of a connection for me between the characters to make up for the lack of the other elements I was hoping for -- so I was ultimately disappointed and ended up skimming a few parts (the sex) because I just didn't feel it. The premise of this book was very interesting - future space travel where the crew of the spaceship contract a deadly plague and connect with aliens on another planet (winged, human-like beings) who can help them overcome the disease. Due to the relatively short length of the story, it wasn't possible to develop the alien world and story as deeply as I would have loved to see, but it still made for an interesting premise. There really wasn't a lot of angst to deal with between the main characters, Ryan and Juo. Ryan does end up getting ill, but it seemed to go quickly and never drew me out emotionally to feel any despair about the situation. I enjoyed the aspect of courtship that was important to Juo before consumating their relationship. The whole notion of a winged, human-like man seemed pretty sexy to me!Overall, I really enjoyed the book and hope to experience more of these two in the rest of the series!!
