He’s only in Greenwater, along with his wife Jasmine and teenage son Lee, to settle an ancient family dispute. He believes he will spend no more than a couple of hours in the tiny, isolated town.

He's right. There’s something wrong with the residents of Greenwater. Something dangerous…

    Thankfully not. Super Dave is dumpster fire of regret and disappointment for anyone who relies on him. Colonel Ekaterina Varatchevsky of the Russian GRU doesn't want to rely on him. A deep cover agent operating in the US as Karen Warat, a successful New York art dealer, Karin is gifted with superpowers courtesy of killing a Threshrend Daemonum which attacks her gallery and eats rather a large number of Manhattan's 1%.

    One with countless accolades behind him.Now, he’s been relegated to oversee the Debiraan Embassy on Earth, a planet whose humans are ungrateful and ignorant of the risk they’d faced had he and his people not saved them from the threat of the Baza.The only good that had come of it, and he used that term loosely, was that these humans were reproductively compatible with his species, offering his fellow Debir’s hope that whatever the Baza had done to dwindle their population could be overcome.Still, he has no desire for such things, or worse...to find his huerta -his other half-, something all Debirs long for and cherish above all else.He isn’t sure what’s worse: that he found his huerta...or that she’s human.Such a thing should not be possible. Yet, the more he tries to deny it, the stronger the pull towards her, and he’s losing the battle to keep himself away.LeilaThe Debir had invaded Earth. Well, that’s what people said anyways. Leila wasn’t so sure, although she’d been one of the lucky ones who didn’t have her life upheaved at the revelation that aliens do exist.A chance walk has her coming to the aid of a Debir in need, an event that all but turns her life completely upside down.Suddenly, she can’t get a certain seven-foot tall, gray-skinned and golden-eyed Debir Commander out of her thoughts. What’s worse, there’s a song in her head that is apparently known as the Calling. Like some sort of guaranteed biological match-making service.No thank you.There is no love at first sight or instant compatibility, and she certainly had no need for a husband or partner. If only fate would cooperate.A security threat now has her stuck with a bunch of other humans. On a ship. In space. His ship.She isn’t sure what’s worse: that she’s experiencing the Calling for a man she doesn’t even know...or that he’s just as frustrated about being Called to her as she is. This is the first novel-length story in The Warriors of Debiraan series. All future novels in the series can be read as a stand-alone but will still be inter-connected. HEA guaranteed.If you’re looking for a semi slow-burn steamy story about strong, independent women and the sexy alien men, then you will not be disappointed.

Collecting test samples from a recently captured green-skinned beast that’s as tall as a mountain, a bit too growly for my taste, and could certainly break out of his cage if he wanted to.An orc. I’m to collect various bodily fluids from an alien orc.Deep breath. Don’t panic, Lou. Come on! You’re a professional. *sweat drop*
