But, then a single glimpse of this exotic creature changed it all… The fearless, strong alien warrior swallowed hard as his eyes drank in this entirely strange creature in front of him. He wanted her for his own more desperately than anything he had ever known. It was not the strong desire to survive, but something else entirely; something so primal he didn’t think there was a word for it. Maxton stared at the creature still wilding, trying to get out of the place. It was the most interesting, entertaining, and scary encounter he had had in a very long time. He had heard about humans a few years back. They did not do well as slaves, and based on legislation a few years ago, they were considered an exotic animal that was not to be brought to the planet. The real question was how did a human end up at his planet? And more importantly, why does Mia matter more to him than just a warrior’s prize? Adults Only!

Rassan


Elle Harper - 2019

A rag-tag crew of (mostly) scientists, a spacecraft that definitely wasn’t going to pass any inspections, and the type of desperation that comes from living each day on a dying planet. Okay, so we didn’t plan for the space battle we found ourselves in the middle of. The sad thing is, when we felt our spacecraft falling apart after being hit, to a one, we thought: still better than life on Earth. Dying among the stars… there are worse ways to go. It’s not like any of us had anyone to go back home to, anyway. Rassan I rescued the tiny Earth woman. Plucked her nearly lifeless body from the vastness of space. And from the moment I saw her face, I knew I’d never be the same. The alien is making me feel things I’ve sworn to never feel again, want things I have no right to want. This is madness. When Harper wakes on an alien planet after nearly dying after her spaceship accidentally gets caught in the crossfire of a battle between two warring races, the only thing she knows is that it’s still better than what she left behind. And when she meets a giant, grumpy soldier who makes her heart race and her knees weak, who makes her laugh and tremble, who shows her the kind of respect she never thought she’d find, she realizes maybe love is possible in the most unlikely of places. Thrown together as Harper tries to be of use to her new alien neighbors, Harper and Rassan both face the demons of their pasts. Happiness is so close… if only they’re strong enough to risk it all.
