Tamed: A Sci-Fi Alien Warrior Romance (Tribute Brides of the Drexian Warriors Book 1)

She’s been promised a dream wedding. The catch? She was abducted from Earth and her groom is a hot alien warrior with a bad attitude.

Taken to a high-tech space station designed to entice human women, LA socialite Mandy is anything but impressed. She’s not falling for their holographic fantasy suites, their promise of a dream wedding, or their gorgeous, brawny warriors. Especially not the arrogant, hot-shot commander she’s been matched with. He may be used to being obeyed, but no way is she following HIS orders. She could care less that he’s huge and ripped and drop-dead gorgeous. Right?

The last thing Dorn wants is a mate.

As a Drexian commander tasked with defending his people from a menacing enemy, he has no use for a frail human mate. Even if they are his species’ last chance for survival. Especially not one as spoiled as her.

But, unfortunately for him, he has no choice. Not if he wants to get back to his battleship and save both Earth and the Drexian race from extinction.

The Look of Love (The Book of Love 1)

When Lady Olivia Gosling finds The Book of Love in a musty bookshop, she is most eager to try out its love “recipes” on someone safe.

Did she say safe?

Well, Beast isn’t really safe, but with her odious guardian about to marry her off to one of his unsavory friends, Olivia needs her childhood friend to fall in love with her… fast. If Beast can love her, then any man she chooses will surely do the same.

Alexander Beastling, Duke of Hartford, is known as Beast among the ton. He is big and muscled, and there is a dark aura of mystery about him that he makes no effort to dispel. Now that he’s returned from battle, he’s appalled to learn of the marriage plans Lady Olivia’s loathsome guardian has for her. Beast has decided that he will help her find a proper husband, even if it means putting up with her ridiculous experiments taken out of a book she refers to as The Book of Love. Olivia calls them magical recipes for love.

Is it possible they actually work? Because suddenly, Beast can’t seem to get Olivia out of his mind… or his heart.

A Scot Mess: a comedy of errors (The Hots for Scots Book 1)

By Caroline L / Genre: Scottish, Historical Fiction

A Scot Mess: a comedy of errors (The Hots for Scots Book 1)

Laird Oliphant’s sons have no choice but to marry. Without an heir, he’s gathered his sons—his six illegitimate sons, all born in the same year—and declared whoever presents him with a grandson first will become the next Highland laird. Reactions are…mixed.

But to Finn Oliphant, this is exactly the news he’s been waiting for. You see, he’s already chosen his wife: the vivacious and intelligent Fiona MacIan, whom he fell in love with last year. She’s in love with him, so this whole “marriage ultimatum” thing should be easy-peasy. He’ll invite her to the Oliphant keep with her brother the laird, in order to sign all the betrothal contracts, and Bam! Done! They can get on with the babies!

Except…

It’s not that Fiona is getting cold feet, exactly. She’s fairly certain she loves Finn. Mostly. Well, verra likely, at least. But she’s never been the most self-confident of women, especially compared to her sister. Her identical twin sister, whom Finn mistakes for her upon arrival, which is super-awkward all around.

The idea of marrying Finn makes her warm and giddy—hopefully that’s just lust, not the ague—but how can she be certain he wants her? It’s hard enough to be certain of anything on Oliphant land, what with mad Aunt Agatha spreading rumors, five potential brothers-in-law offering terrible advice, and a mysterious ghostly drummer keeping them awake at all hours.

And mayhap Finn should’ve mentioned his identical twin brother, too? That would have saved everyone a lot of headache…and heartbreak. Finn and Fiona have plenty to learn about themselves and one another before they can be certain this marriage is a good idea. But unfortunately, they’re running out of time. Dun-dun-duuuuuuuun!

Bad Boys Don’t Die

By BB Easton / Genre: Dystopian, Science Fiction, Science Fiction & Fantasy

Bad Boys Don't Die

I swore I’d never step foot in this town again, but thirteen foster homes and a looming apocalypse later, here I am. Not because I’m having some emotional end-of-the-world crisis—like literally everybody else on this planet—but because the key to my survival is buried somewhere in these woods. I just have to find it before April 23.

All I need are some basic supplies, a place to stay, and a sucker willing to help me out, which is exactly what I think I’ve found when I rescue a local girl from an angry mob. Okay, I kidnap her at gunpoint. Regardless, I expect her to be so grateful to the handsome, tattooed stranger who just saved her life that she’ll do anything to reciprocate. Instead, she refuses to follow directions, runs away repeatedly, and nearly gets us killed every chance she gets.

The girl has a death wish, but … I can’t seem to let her go.

The more I get to know her, the more I realize that she and I are like opposite sides of the same damaged coin. Forged in dark secrets. Stamped with violence and pain.

One who will do anything to survive.

And one who can’t wait to die.

But no matter how badly I want to save her, doomsday is coming, and on April 23, only one of us will get our wish.

My baby.
