Book Description
Dorina Basarab is a dhampir—half-human, half-vampire. Subject to uncontrollable rages, most dhampirs live very short, very violent lives. But so far, Dory has managed to maintain her sanity by unleashing her anger on those demons and vampires who deserve killing... Dory is used to fighting hard and nasty. So when she wakes up in a strange scientific lab with a strange man standing over her, her first instinct is to take his head off. Luckily, the man is actually the master vampire Louis-Cesare, so he’s not an easy kill. It turns out that Dory had been working with a Vampire Senate task force on the smuggling of magical items and weaponry out of Faerie when she was captured and brought to the lab. But when Louis-Cesare rescues her, she has no memory of what happened to her. To find out what was done to her—and who is behind it—Dory will have to face off with fallen angels, the maddest of mad scientists, and a new breed of vampires that are far worse than undead…

Book Description
The cyborg assassin and the single mom… Owned by a corporation and forced to work as an assassin, cyborg Mike Fury dreams of freedom and having a woman to call his own, someone to love, who will love him. He plots his escape and seeks asylum on planet Refuge, applying for a wife through the Cosmic Mates interplanetary matchmaking program. When his dream woman arrives, she comes with an unpleasant surprise—she is not unencumbered; she has a child. It quickly becomes obvious that she’s more committed to her son than she will ever be to him. It’s within his rights to send her packing, but when he hears of her plight he agrees to continue with the marriage until the end of the probationary period when they can both apply for new spouses. Single mom Verity Vale would do anything to protect her young son, even marry a stranger. When a rich, powerful family threatens to lay claim to her son, she knows the only way to keep him is to get him off Earth as quickly as possible. Figuring a woman with a child seeking a match through Cosmic Mates would send up red flags, she omits mention of her son in her application. She hopes that whoever the man is, he’ll have a heart big enough to accept a package deal. The marriage starts out strained and awkward, but Verity soon recognizes her husband’s innate kindness and goodness. Even more, he’s patient with her son who adores him. Nor does it hurt that he’s smokin’ hot. Their marriage of convenience turns loving and passionate, and both revel in their good fortune. But Fury knows his happiness is doomed. He can’t keep lying to Verity about his past. And when the protective mom learns she married a coldhearted cyborg assassin, he fears it will mean the end of his dream. * * * * The Cosmic Mates sci-fi romances are being released in “duets,” a two-book series within a series. Books one and two are a set, books three and four are a different set, etc. Kiss of Steel (Cosmic Mates 3) is the start of a brand-new mini-series. All the Cosmic Mates sci-fi romances can be read as standalones. Escape Clause (Cosmic Mate 1) and Help Wanted: Wife (Cosmic Mates 2) will be released on Google Play in mid-October and mid-November, respectively.

In the year since Rachel Underwood was blessed—or cursed—with legendary powers, her life has changed more than she could ever have imagined. Being transformed into a badass, crime fighting, femme fatale should be a dream come true for a bookworm like her…if it wasn’t such a nightmare. At odds with the ancient Greek Fury who shares her body, Rachel struggles to stay sane and avoid losing her identity. To make matters worse, just when her lifelong goal of obtaining an Ivy League education is finally within reach, fate brings Rachel face-to-face with a major distraction in the form of Ethan Graves. The former director of the FBI’s Extrabiological Investigations unit is the one man she hoped never to see again, and battling her attraction for the man who betrayed her is hard enough. Too bad she also has to fight the forces of evil that are hell-bent on starting a war of mythological proportions. With time running out and no way to tell new friends from ancient enemies, Rachel soon discovers that sometimes the only way to beat the enemy…is to join them.

For three long years after her husband, Nora Katsaros was on the run. And now that she’s finally found a place to call home, she’s not about to let anyone stand in the way of raising her daughter in peace – not even Charon, the womanizing, drop-dead-gorgeous former god who works at her restaurant.

Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
Long ago, confusion seized the common folk as magickal creatures wreaked havoc upon their world by introducing magick the people did not understand. Kingdoms were torn apart as evil wizards took over. Now, the peaceable people with delicate magick are being hunted and drained of their powers. They must bring down the imposing evil forces if they hope to restore peace and calm in their land. The prince of the commoner's realm, Alexander of the North, thought he had escaped this darkness until the death of his mother made him a warrior-and a hero with a dark secret. Even worse, he's prone to making mistakes. Promising his sister, Victoria, that she would be the new princess of the West is his first mistake; the second is falling in love with Myst, a fair maid from a misty pool. But Myst is more than just a peasant and has power beyond those of the mighty wizard for whom she is an apprentice. When Myst sacrifices herself to save the kingdom from war, Alex gathers an incredible group of people to save her from the clutches of evil. But will Alex's powerful secret come back to haunt him? I was so taken in by Ms. Victoria's prose/storytelling abilities. I found in The Quest for Myst a riveting, captivating, banquet of a tale from an author with an imagination not of this world. To further the enjoyment, just when I thought it safe to sit back and relax in the read, she would drop these lines, these witty pearls of thinking author's humor. It is not often that I suggest books to others, but with The Quest for Myst you simply cannot go wrong. FW Bosworth, Author Never Play Leapfrog with a Unicorn
