He’s a condescending alien jerk, and probably a criminal, so why do I keep ending up in his bed? UliFrom the moment I heard Caroline’s voice on a distress beacon, I’ve wanted her, but I know I can’t have her. She is a beautiful, broken woman; a weak-minded human who could never survive life on a Tholkon smuggling ship. My only choice is to ignore our intense sexual chemistry while we transport Caroline and her people to safety. But a man can only be so strong... moreHe’s a condescending alien jerk, and probably a criminal, so why do I keep ending up in his bed? UliFrom the moment I heard Caroline’s voice on a distress beacon, I’ve wanted her, but I know I can’t have her. She is a beautiful, broken woman; a weak-minded human who could never survive life on a Tholkon smuggling ship. My only choice is to ignore our intense sexual chemistry while we transport Caroline and her people to safety. But a man can only be so strong.And when our people are threatened by a dangerous force, Caroline may hold the answer to saving us all.CarolineI’d lost all hope as we floated through space on our destroyed ship, awaiting certain death. And when what’s left of my crew is miraculously rescued by a group of savage aliens, I’m sure we’re much better off.Until the monster that destroyed my ship gives chase, forcing the tholkons and humans to work together to save us all. Teaming up with a brilliant but aggravating alien named Uli is the only way to keep our people safe. His mind may hold the key saving our lives, but it’s his beautiful body that’s keeping me warm at night — and his very special anatomy is a great distraction, nothing more.Until he becomes so much more than a fling.Disclaimer: The Interplanetary Unity Council takes no responsibility for any of the alien smut found in this multi-author collaboration.

To survive, we’ll need to trust each other… which is the problem, really.HimariIf Aidro would stop wearing that stupid jacket and carrying that ridiculous axe around, I might take him a little more seriously as the leader of our ragtag group of survivors.

Right, so I completely lost my point the moment he walked by.
