For 15 years, she’d been the leader of a resistance force and one stubborn, arrogant and frustratingly gorgeous alien claiming she’s his mate isn’t going to deter her from that vow. Especially when being a mate to these guys meant being kept pregnant and out of danger. No matter how much she’s drawn to him; Jax is determined to fight her feelings and stay as far away from the mate business as possible. For 1400 years, Reven Debreskii had resigned himself to a life of loneliness. As a hardened Valendran military commander, second only to Ivint Torenson, Reven was used to his commands being followed without question. So when he tells Jax that she’s his mate, he’s perplexed and frustrated when she not only doesn’t listen to him, she does her best to ignore him at every turn. However, fate did not bring Reven to Earth solely so he could be tortured by a mate he couldn’t claim. With neither one prepared to give an inch to the other in their battle of wills, they will be thrown together for a fight neither expected, but neither is willing to lose. As two young lives rest in the hands of the stubborn, seasoned warriors, they will all have to learn to trust and compromise or none of them will make it out alive. less

And as a river guide in Colorado, she was able to live her dream of having the best of both worlds. Solitude and outdoor living. Until one very large and very strange man came along and wrecked her peaceful life. Forced together under desperate circumstances, Rebecca and Gracus will be caught in a life and death game that neither of them had been prepared for… and neither may survive.

The soldiers and deputies blocking the road didn’t look quite right, and everything in his instincts told him something was wrong. The last thing he remembered was a flaming alien craft headed straight for him. Mikey awoke in a military hospital and believed he was safe, but it didn’t take him long to realize just how horribly wrong he was. After two tours in Afghanistan, he’d seen the horrors of war, and brought them home in his mind. Still, nothing he’d seen on the battlefield compared to the insanity, pain, and rage he endured. Only one thing helped him cope—the beautiful eyes of the only person kind to him. Dr. Lauren Campbell had rarely been out of Fiorn’s Folly, but when she was called to try and help the damaged soldier, she found herself drawn to him in a way she never expected. His pain and loneliness called to her own and she soon set aside any reservations she had about getting close to a patient. Rescued by what he thinks is the enemy, Mikey will do anything to restore his good name with the military and rid himself of the alien disease, and Lauren will have to use every skill she’s ever learned in order to prevent the mentally broken man from turning against them all and destroying the only chance for them both to find happiness. less
