    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.

That all changes the day that Joi Young marches into his office building. Joi is a creative, talented, independent, snarky, full-figured, brown-skinned beauty and Angelo’s mate. Knowing she belongs to him does something to Growl and he’s determined to claim her, bond with her, and possess every inch of her. Just the way the spirits intended. However, Joi has other ideas.

     Academy Investigator. Top agent at the Magic Elite Investigators Department. If only my real biography were half as glorious as the one in my head. Instead, I’m Willa Silvers, a clumsy, disaster-prone eighteen-year-old and daughter of two powerful M.E.I.D. agents. Naturally, expectations are high as I, the Infinite Level Mageri Mage, embark on my investigatory career, but I’m already running into complications. With my unwieldy magic that has a mind of its own, and being paired with the powerful, sexy, rich jerk who couldn’t care less about "partnership", I hope completing our assigned mission is no problem. Silly assumption. Our mission? Locate four ancient daggers, hidden in the depths of four of the most elite academies in the world. It’s our job to dedicate one year to the search for each mystical dagger by attending the various schools and blending in as students. The catch — because there’s always a catch — is that we're not the only ones after these legendary weapons and if each one isn’t retrieved within the designated year, the entire world will be annihilated by eternal life-sucking smoke. Daggers and smoke...a lethal potential future for all of us if I make a single mistake. All Written Work by Quinn Ashwood X Avery Song are NOT Reverse Harem. This is a YA/New Adult M/F romance
