"Terrific romantic science fiction"

Mute nine year old Jana Jasper saved the life of a boy she called Peter (after Peter Pan). Afterward he grants her three wishes; the first being able to speak surprisingly occurs; the second kissing Peter also happens; the third is that one day he will marry her when they grow up. However, just after that Peter vanishes without a trace, she wonders if a lonely girl hallucinated up a friend as her sister, grandfather, and parents insist.

Several years later she next sees her Peter in a grocery wearing odd grab that would be more suited for a romantic fantasy novel. This time Peter does not disappear. Instead he explains to great orator Senator Jana Jasper that he is Cavin Far Star from a planet far way. He has come to earth to warn the natives that his people are coming to invade with a powerful armada on the way. However, someone else from his planet has arrived with the mission to kill Cavin and any allies he has made especially the earthling he loves.

YOUR PLANET OR MINE? Is a terrific romantic science fiction tale that is filled with action from the moment that Jana sees the odd boy in the tree outside her window and never slows down as they try to save the earth with a dose of self-deprecating humor. The literally star- crossed lovers are a likable pair that enable the audience to believe in Cavin's world and the magic so eloquently explain by grandpa in everyday life.

It's Bridget Jones' Diary meets War of the Worlds when a scandal-plagued California state senator finds out that her "imaginary" childhood friend is anything but when he tracks her down twenty years later in an aisle in the grocery store, a sexy, armor-clad interstellar warrior demanding her help in averting an imminent alien invasion.

Summary

He had her at "Greetings Earthling."

Think the grocery store is a great place to meet men?

Hunky interstellar fugitive, aisle 5

With outrageously false accusations piling up against her famous political family and an ex-fiancé in hot water determined to take her down with him, the last thing Jana Jasper needs is more trouble—especially man trouble. But when she heads to the grocery store for an ice cream fix, not only does the muscled hunk in the frozen foods section ranting about spaceships and invasions look crazy, he looks...familiar.

Cavin of Far Star has never forgotten the girl he met during his weeks spent on that quaint little world, planet Earth, the girl who didn't believe he was real. And now he'll risk his future to save her. All she has to do is take him to her leader. Simple enough plan—although Jana isn't so easily convinced. Hell-bent on charming his way past her defenses, he's determined to stay one step ahead of the galaxy's most feared assassin—and may just capture his favorite Earthling's heart in the process.
