Kitty Katt, her lover, Jeff Martini and the Alpha Team are called to Florida to help figure out what has attached itself to the US spaceship that returned to earth after crashing into something. While trying to figure this out a second plot puts Kitty in the sights of a jealous woman who wants Kitty's old high school boyfriend. Then the whole team is threatened from another front. Nothing is ever quiet where Kitty is. This was a high energy spy action, alien adventure, political conspiracy, humorous romance. A little bit of heart-pumping fun. Love this series. (

Koch, Gini. Alien Tango. DAW, 2010. Katherine “Kitty” Katt 2.
Chick lit with sexy aliens and monstrous aliens Kitty calls “fuglies.” When the course of true love gets troubled, you worry that you will never be able to make love in a shower again. All the normal people you know turn out to be aliens. And, oh yes, men’s rooms in bus stations may be teleportation portals. Give Alien Tango three or four stars, depending on how guilty you like your pleasures. (

Alien Tango was jam packed with storylines, but not to the point where it was overwhelming or confusing. We've still got Jeff and Kitty's romance going on, we've got a threat to the A-Cs on Earth, we've got a stalker situation, we've got dirty politicians, and let's round it all off with several people competing for Kitty's attention and affection! Everything is so fast paced, there is never a dull or boring moment in this book. And OH, lest I forget, a High School reunion too??? Of course, if you've read the first book I can't imagine not having moved on to the second, but if you're putting it off for whatever reason??? Stop! I can't wait to get started on book 3. (

We're six months past when Kitty joined the A-C's and she's learned how to fly. Kind of makes sense since she's the Airborne Commander. ;-) Something weird happened on a manned shuttle and the Alpha Team is sent to Florida. Small hitch, they have to fly there not gate there. Plus its Kitty's 10 year high school reunion and Jeff wants to go. We get Brian the guy who popped her cherry, who is now an astronaut and Chuckie the best friend from 9th grade all enter the picture. Throw in getting to meet Jeff's parents and Kitty's having lots of fun! (
