    During the day, he’s a South Chicago high school janitor, slopping a mop around from nine o’clock to three o’clock five days a week.

    Through the Internet, Church, volunteer groups, or even singles bars. Or, you can do it the way Luna Meadows did--by rescuing an alien from his crashed intergalactic spaceship on the side of a remote mountain in the Rockies just ahead of a three day blizzard.Then, there are lots of ways for a newly-met couple to get to know one another: outdoor activities such as hiking and canoeing, couples’ encounter groups, and exploring hobbies of mutual interest have worked well for millions. If none of that works, there’s always the path taken by Luna and the alien whom she rescued, Raj of the Melina Tribe of the Kyun people, fighting off enormous genetically engineered monsters equipped with searing blood, boiling saliva, and even in the case of one, the ability to breathe fire. And that’s all in just the couple’s first day together.It doesn’t get any easier, either. In order to come together, Raj and Luna must navigate through their physical and cultural differences, their inability to speak each other’s languages, a long period of separation, political intrigue, murder plots, stalking alien predators in a dense jungle under the light of a distant sun, and mysteries about Luna’s background that are so deeply hidden that, in some cases, she didn’t even know a mystery existed.Fortunately, the couple is well-suited to these adventures. Luna has speed, agility, sensory abilities, and other gifts that set her aside from every woman on Earth—abilities that her widower father taught her from her earliest childhood to hide from the world. Raj is a magnificent specimen of the male of his species—seven feet of solid muscle and dense bone, razor sharp claws, cat-eyes, superhuman strength and speed, and drop-dead effing gorgeous. And, he’s well-equipped for love.“Luna of Earth” is the 167,000 word first installment of a two volume mega-novel from Laura Jo Phillips. It has the passion, the adventure, the excitement, the consuming emotion, and the burn-the-bed-to-smoking-cinders eroticism that her fans know they are going to find in Laura Jo’s writing, but with the added depth that comes from a focus on a single couple. The second installment of the series, “Luna of Kyun” is already written. It’s currently being edited and prepared for publication, and should be in readers’ hands only a few weeks after publication of “Luna of Earth.” Accordingly, fans won’t have long to wait to bring the story to a conclusion.“Luna of Earth” is a wonderful treat for fans of Laura Jo who have been with her for years since the “Soul-Linked Saga,” and—because it and its sequel are a stand-alone story—is a great place for new readers to enter the astonishing universes that dwell in the fertile imagination of the incomparable Laura Jo Phillips.

    Chosen by a Beast (Book 1) I’ve been abducted. Twice.Currently I’m in the midst of a group of primitive gargoyle aliens running around in loincloths. Which doesn’t hide much, let me tell you. There’s one gargoyle alien in particular who watches my every move, and as much as I’d like him to rescue me, it looks like I’m on my own. Maybe I shouldn’t have flipped him off...but how was I supposed to know I’d need his help? Now, I’m going to have to tap into my survival skills or I’ll be dead by morning. May the odds and the aliens be ever in my favor. Or something. Tamed by a Beast (Book 2) I hate this place. Not that my life on Najarie was great, but at least I didn’t have a beastly alien trying to get me into bed all the time. And when I say all the time, I mean all the freaking time. I haven’t forgotten Earth or the loved ones I’ve left behind. In fact, I’m willing to use any means necessary to get back to them. However, when the alien that claimed me offers to help in exchange for my body I find myself torn. Either I’m nothing more than a breeder to him or he’s trying to find a way to persuade me to stay. And I’ll just say if that’s the case, his method is working… Seduced by a Beast (Book 3) He wants me. And this male is used to getting whatever he demands. The only problem is I don't want to be bothered. Especially not hot and bothered. But he's not getting the hint. He thinks I'm his and that he needs to claim me. But I've been given my freedom and I have no intention of giving it away to this alien. No matter how handsome, strong, and kind he is. Just because he makes me feel things doesn't mean they're real. Or are they? Taken by a Beast (Book 4) He's a thief. And what did he steal? Yours truly. I get it that women are a hot commodity on this planet, but why me? It's not like there weren't others to choose from. Besides, I've just found my sister and I have no desire to be away from her. But this alien doesn't take no for an answer. And the more time I spend with the infuriating male, the harder it is to plan my escape. Assuming he will stop touching me long enough for me to properly think. Loved by a Beast (Book 5) My marriage is in trouble. Jaxar and I didn't exactly have a regular romance since he abducted me and then sent me on a journey that could've resulted in my death. But that's neither here nor there. And what doesn't kill you, makes you bitter. I mean, stronger. Anyway, the point is that my husband, who I adore, is becoming distant. That, plus my hormones, are turning me into someone I don't recognize. With war imminent, now is not the time to be insecure and emotional, and yet tell that to my pregnant self. All she wants to do is eat and cry. I need to figure out how to save my relationship with Jaxar, as well as lead my people or I won't be just dead emotionally, but physically as well. And I didn't travel all across the galaxy to just give up now.
