Until she gives him a bad case of mating marks and all bets are off. Exploration yields an unexpected bounty… and a chance at love. Tarrick's duty to the Latharian Empire means little time for himself. Thanks to a genetic plague, the lathar have no females of their own, so a base full of human women is a bounty he can't ignore. Nor can he ignore the little human who defies him at every step. Then a dangerous rival challenges the K'Vass claim on Terran space and all its women. Tarrick can't afford to let any of the earth women be captured, especially not his little human, Cat. When she is taken from him, he'll do anything to rescue her. Up to and including starting an intergalactic war. .. less

Go to earth. Find a woman. Bring her back. Simple. The Emperor’s Shadow, Xaandryn, is not a warrior. He’s something else, whatever else, the Emperor needs him to be. An assassin, and, it seems… now he’s a delivery boy.

Find a woman. Bring her back. Simple. The Emperor’s Shadow, Xaandryn, is not a warrior. He’s something else, whatever else, the Emperor needs him to be. An assassin, and, it seems… now he’s a delivery boy. Sent to earth to retrieve the Lady Jessica’s sick sister, he’s anticipating an easy trip and, if he spends a little time getting to know the local culture… well, that’s just a perk of the job. Right? Human women though are endlessly fascinating, especially Jac Wright, the sick lady’s nurse. He’d thought the warriors who’d fallen for human women had defective genes, that there was something wrong in their makeup that allowed them to fall prey to their human mates. But Jac is… something else. Tiny. Delicate. Beautiful. When his mission goes sideways, and an attack puts a couple of them in danger, he escapes earth with not one, but two human women in his care. After all… she’s only one tiny little woman. What could possibly go wrong? Apparently… everything. He’s hot. Gorgeous. And a total liar…. When the hot ‘doctor’ who arrives to see her sick charge, Jac Wright knows he’s not on the level. No doctor looks the way Rynn does… hot, ripped and panty-wettingly gorgeous… not unless they’re on primetime TV. Then the shit hits the fan, aliens attack and she finds herself on an alien ship with her charge frozen into a giant blue popsicle. What’s a girl to do? Kiss the hot alien, then knock him out of course. The problem is, she can’t drive a car, never mind fly an alien spaceship. Which is a problem when other, bad aliens board the ship… with an assassin on her side though, breaking out of an alien brig is child’s play, but comes with a price: Rynn’s trust. But once on Lathar Prime her lover seems less than interested in bringing their relationship into the light of day. Will he realise what she’s offering, or will Jac be forced to go to extreme measures to claim her alien assassin’s heart? This is the fifth story in the Warriors of the Lathar series:. 1 - Alien Lord's Captive. 2 - Claiming her Alien Warrior. 3 - Pregnant by the Alien Healer. 4 - Alien Healer's Baby (Slice of Life story). 5 - Adored by the Alien Assassin. less

There’s just one problem. The very dangerous, and very sexy Risyn B'Kaar. He doesn’t like humans, and he’s her new boss…. War Commander Risyn B’Kaar doesn’t want to be on Earth, and doesn’t want to be part of the mate program. But he has his orders. At least all he has to do is set the draanthing thing up, then he can leave. He certainly doesn’t want a human mate of his own. No way, no how…. But when the program matches him with Raven, he can’t let her go. Not even when she betrays him. There’s a greater betrayal at work though, one that might take his beautiful little mate from him. Can he save her from the forces that conspire against them, before it’s too late? less

Escape. Locate. Claim. Condemned Izaean Berserker K’laus didn’t expect to find his fated mate in a medical bay. Or for her to be human. He certainly didn’t expect to have to watch her walk away from him. Escaping the station is easy. Tracking his mate down on a planet alien to him is a little harder. Claiming her heart might just take all the magic that Christmas has to offer. Especially when he can’t tell her he’s not the man she thinks he is…. No time for Christmas, she has a job to do... moreEscape. Locate. Claim. Condemned Izaean Berserker K’laus didn’t expect to find his fated mate in a medical bay. Or for her to be human.

Claiming her heart might just take all the magic that Christmas has to offer. Especially when he can’t tell her he’s not the man she thinks he is…. No time for Christmas, she has a job to do. One that doesn’t include falling in love. Holly was the best gen-modded predator keeper on the planet. Until one of her charges used her as a chew toy. Literally. Now the only job she can find is her personal nightmare; Deer keeper in a Christmas resort. Whatever. She just has to survive until Christmas. Which doesn’t include falling for the report’s charming, handsome driver. But he is cute and he seems familiar…. When her annoying ex drops the bombshell that her new crush isn’t who he says he is, can she see past the lie, and accept the truth in her handsome alien's heart? less

Asleep in the ice for eons, she’s woken by the prince she despises… Betrayed and forced into stasis after a coup sent her starship crashing onto an unknown planet, Imperial Navy Captain Lynara Varaant only expects to sleep a few years until rescue comes. Instead, she wakes 250,000 years later to find her lost crew evolved into the planet's inhabitants called humans, and the empire she knew changed beyond all recognition... moreAsleep in the ice for eons, she’s woken by the prince she despises… Betrayed and forced into stasis after a coup sent her starship crashing onto an unknown planet, Imperial Navy Captain Lynara Varaant only expects to sleep a few years until rescue comes. Instead, she wakes 250,000 years later to find her lost crew evolved into the planet's inhabitants called humans, and the empire she knew changed beyond all recognition. When she meets Cameron Murphy, the handsome president of Earth, she despises him for his resemblance to the prince who betrayed her. But she can’t get the sexy human, or the way his kisses make her burn, out of her mind…. He freed her from frozen sleep, but her right hook said she isn’t looking for a prince. The moment Murphy sees Lynara, he knows she's his. She emerges ready to fight, but he sees past that to the woman within. A man with a dark past, he knows he doesn’t deserve her, but he can’t resist her… But his world fractures when Lynara is kidnapped by an unknown enemy, and he learns he’s been decieved—Lynara's frozen ship held an apocalyptic superweapon, now stolen along with the woman from the past he’s in love with. To save her and stop humanity being wiped out, he must make treacherous alliances, confront the twisted plans of an ancient Latharian purist, and once again step into the shadows to become the dangerous man he left behind long ago…. less

She’s a pilot, not a people person. What does she know about keeping a bunch of women alive on an alien planet? Even worse, said planet has alien cavemen intent on carrying them off to their lairs to… do whatever it is alien cavemen DO to their captives. Yeah, that doesn’t take a genius to figure out. When the women she’s trying to protect manage to get themselves captured, it’s up to Maeve to track them through an alien forest, with unknown dangers, and rescue them... moreShe’s a pilot, not a people person. What does she know about keeping a bunch of women alive on an alien planet? Even worse, said planet has alien cavemen intent on carrying them off to their lairs to… do whatever it is alien cavemen DO to their captives. Yeah, that doesn’t take a genius to figure out. When the women she’s trying to protect manage to get themselves captured, it’s up to Maeve to track them through an alien forest, with unknown dangers, and rescue them. But she didn’t count on becoming prey herself… or the handsome white-haired caveman who came to her rescue, and who insists on protecting her even if they don’t speak the same language. Sparks flare and she can’t keep away. What’s a little crash-landed on an alien planet romance going to hurt? But then his lies are revealed and she realises that the stakes are FAR higher than she thought…. He scares people. He doesn’t protect them. Until her…. No one goes to Parac’Norr. Not willingly. The ‘home’ of the Izaean Berserkers (read exile prison planet they’re dumped on), it’s a hard and brutal place where only the strongest survive. Then there’s the Northern Continent… where all hope goes to die. When a ship crash lands there with precious females aboard, Raalt, the leader of the Izaea, must race against time to save them. Because the Northern Continent hides the Izaeans’ best-kept secret…. But he has no choice. Once he heard her voice on the mayday call, he’ll move heaven and earth to find her. She is HIS, and he’ll kill everything on that gods-forsaken continent to protect her if he has to…. Even if it costs him his sanity and his soul. less

She's the best pilot in the galaxy. .. He's an arrogant alien duke. Major Zara Reid has one mission - prove human pilots can fly alongside the alien Latharians. She didn’t expect their arrogant Lord Starfighter to try and undermine her at every turn. As much as she tries to stay away from him, his chiseled features and amber eyes awaken flames of desire she can't ignore, no matter how much of an arrogant ass he is... moreShe's the best pilot in the galaxy. .. He's an arrogant alien duke. Major Zara Reid has one mission - prove human pilots can fly alongside the alien Latharians. She didn’t expect their arrogant Lord Starfighter to try and undermine her at every turn. As much as she tries to stay away from him, his chiseled features and amber eyes awaken flames of desire she can't ignore, no matter how much of an arrogant ass he is. He commands the empire’s fiercest pilots… He has no time to pander to fragile humans. As a royal duke, and the Empire’s Lord Starfighter, Traax doesn't have time for the human pilots foisted upon him by his meddling cousin. Distractions like the human pilot commander, Zara are unforgivable… no matter how beautiful she is, or how much he yearns to make her his. Until one night causes mating marks to appear, and binds them as fated mates. Now she's his to protect at all costs. When saboteurs strike and leave Zara stranded on an abandoned space station, Traax must put everything aside to rescue his fated mate. To reach Zara, he'll have to go up against one of the most dangerous enemies a Latharian can face--the vicious, carnivorous Krin. Willing to sacrifice his life for the defiant and beautiful human who sets his soul on fire, can Traax best the ultimate challenge for any warrior, or is their happily-ever-after doomed before it can start? less

She didn't sign up for some alien mail-order-bride thing, but she fell for the alien anyway. Trouble is, she fell for the wrong one…. Emily was a social worker, not a princess. She sorted donated coats, broke up fights over bunks, and went home to a grumpy cat. Then her mother forged her signature on a contract with the Latharian Mate Program, and Emily didn't just get matched, she got matched to the Emperor himself. The most powerful man in the known galaxy... moreShe didn't sign up for some alien mail-order-bride thing, but she fell for the alien anyway. Trouble is, she fell for the wrong one….

Then her mother forged her signature on a contract with the Latharian Mate Program, and Emily didn't just get matched, she got matched to the Emperor himself. The most powerful man in the known galaxy. And not one person gave a damn that she hadn't been asked. .. He was sworn to protect her. Not to want her. Raaevik K'Vass had one job: guard the Emperor's future mate. Shadow her. Sleep outside her door. Keep her alive. He was not supposed to notice the way she looked at him like he was the only solid thing in her world. He was not supposed to feel the word mine thunder through his blood every time she turned those beautiful, dark eyes on him. But the Emperor trusted him, and Raaevik would rather die than betray that trust. The problem was, dying might be easier. Then Purists took her. Which is when Raaevik stopped being a warrior and started being a problem…. less
