After my ex announces his wedding to someone other than me, I'm eager to leave town. A new life and a new job are just what I need to restore my mojo. On the way to my destination, I overnight at a hotel where edible unmentionables and a tattooed orc construction worker rock my world. I sneak out the next morning, figuring I'll never see him again. Until I walk into my new job. That hot orc construction worker? He's my boss.

I accidentally launched an escape pod on my miserable honeymoon—with me on it—and crash-landed in the middle of an alien jungle on a forbidden "emerging civilization" planet, breaking about a hundred Cosmic Syndicate laws. Oh, and I robbed a hot lizard guy with sexy black eyes, the most colorful scales I've ever seen, and a powerful prehensile tail that curls up like a cinnamon roll. Even though I can't understand anything he's saying, my new reptilian friend turns out to be as sweet as honey and spicier than the seasoning he used on the meat I stole from his camp.

I came to Voran for a job, not a husband. I’m not opposed to a fun, light fling, but Voranian men love hard, propose fast, and don’t do “casual.” Knowing it, I try to resist the attraction I feel for my Voranian boss, even as I’m falling for this man with his reserved nature, keen mind, and a kind heart. A Ravil from the planet Tragul would be perfect for a no-string fling, especially someone as charming and fun as Orin whom I meet at a Family Day dance. Except that Orin and I realize quickly that we both want more.

Lucinda Hayward Duvall, of the Designer-class Duvalls on Alpha-Prime, has never quite fit the mold in her noble family. Her four sisters are more beautiful, their behavior more acceptable and their bearing far more regal than she could ever pull off. Even so, she’s happy enough with her books and her routines and to fall in line with the marriage arranged by her demanding parents. Until a chance encounter with a handsome stranger at a galactic way station on a wild and wonderful colony planet makes her question everything she’s ever known.

An indentured human woman. An Imperial man on a mission. A fake marriage born in the stars. When my master died, I believed I’d be set free. Instead, I’m sent to a temple where I’m forced to continue doing the one thing I know—pleasing alien males. Until Gael the Returner arrives. Half-human and half-Imperial, he travels the galaxy, rescuing humans.

I was abducted by the alien puppy pound. Thrown into a cage and sold as a galactic pet. An alien captain has made me his beloved pet. Things have happened that I can’t live with. Things too terrible to mention here.

It's finally happening! After years of scrimping and saving, I have finally launched my landscaping business from the back of my garden shop. Oh, don't get me wrong—I adore making floral arrangements, helping people figure out their soil's right pH, and sharing a million other gardening tips...

Just when I think I'm at the end of my rope, the universe sends a gorgeous, talented, and oh-so-caring nanny to rescue me. What's the catch? Every morning I wake up and remind myself I was the one who decided to kick out my horrible ex, and it's my choice to raise my kids alone. This is less...

Sell over a million dollars of programmable hover vacs in a month, get a hefty commission check, and win an all-expenses paid trip to Ubaid Space Station. I came for the extraterrestrial experience, not the poorly cooked chicken parmesan in the Earth-centric resort restaurant. So, who can blame me if I slip my leash by bribing the tour guide to let me escape yet another mind-numbingly boring museum trip? I end up in a bar in the most dangerous sector of the Leisure Ring. I also meet the extraterrestrial of my dreams—at least, he can be for the remainder of my vacation.

Recently widowed, Jane, Duchess of Coleford, has retreated to an estate in Cornwall with her young daughter. There she meets her formidable neighbour, Brook Reeves—a man with a permanent scowl and a stubborn streak to match her own. He wants her gone, making repeated offers to buy the crumbling house she inherited from her late husband. Jane refuses, determined to stay… and not admit how much she is drawn to him. But one day, Jane ventures uninvited into his domain and discovers secrets she must never reveal. There is only one solution: at Reeves Hall, she must remain—his captive duchess.

I've been a single mom for sixteen years, and I know there's no place left in my life for fun. Right? I grew up in the South, where there are three things you're never supposed to ask: A woman her age, a man his salary, and a single mother how the duck she's managing to juggle a job, a mortgage...

Look, there are plenty of things I just learned about the gorgeous, seven-foot-tall perfect specimen of male living next door to me. Karnak can scent everything about me, including those times I thought I was alone in my hot tub and I decided to experiment with different water jet settings. He's really good at finding lost kitties (not a euphemism). In the four years I've lived next door to him, the orc has known—beyond a shadow of a doubt—that I'm his fated Mate. And apparently it's killing him to stay away.

After fleeing his hometown to avoid going to prison for defending his little sister, twenty-one year old Carter Reed lives a lonely life making subs for college kids. Yet when Allison stumbles into his shop while fleeing men in black, he helps her escape... and meets the girl of his dreams. Yet Allison isn’t just Carter’s perfect woman. She’s also a fugitive from another planet, and other aliens are hunting her. Despite the danger, Carter can’t bear to let her run alone, and soon learns Allison is as eager to be with him as he is to be with her. He is, in her words, her ideal partner.

Paz is tired of being the only single human on the planet. Ready for an alien mate of his own, he secretly ventures from the village to find the Maeleons who left on a "quest", only to discover that word has a very different connotation on Eukaria. When Paz is caught in a hunting trap and confronted by an aggressive Maeleon, he’s forced to put his diplomacy skills to the ultimate test—before the hottest alien he’s ever seen eats him alive.

Alison is looking forward to finally settling down in Fairhaven Falls. Surely, a town full of monsters will make it easier to guard her vulnerable heart. When she runs into a truck driven by a massive troll with a charming smile, she realizes it might not be so easy after all. Despite her attempts to avoid him, he keeps coming to her rescue.

When the aliens welcome them with open arms—and tentacles—Levi is wary. No strangers are that nice. Especially not seven-foot-tall teal dudes with more "feelers" than you can shake a stick at. But Levi's suspicion fades when the smoldering alien Zat'tor takes an unusual interest in him. He never got this much attention back on his own planet, and no human man ever made his heart flutter the way Zat'tor does. Amid their budding relationship, Levi discovers the shock of his life. Can he ever return to Earth? But more importantly, does he even want to?

My hunky orc neighbor, Vrok, who I'd love to get to know better, keeps ignoring me. But when he overhears me reading the draft of my steamy romance novel out loud, he tells me he has ideas to make the male point of view better. Yeah, sure. One thing leads to another, and soon, we're not only working on dialogue, but we're also acting out some of the hotter scenes.

I escaped a life of fear for the beautiful mountainous town of Monsterville. There, I meet Storm, a gorgeous wolf shifter. His wolfish ways and heady kisses draw me in, and the future he offers, one full of peace and love, makes me long for a life I never thought I'd find. He invites me to a wolf pack reunion, where things between us only get better. But my past haunts me, and if I don't flee, they'll drag me back and lock me up in a place where Storm will never find me.

I saw the bright lights of the UFO and then it took me. I was kept in a cage, then I sold. My story is like many other humans adrift in the galaxy. If only people on Earth knew…But it’s too terrible, no one would believe us. When the Imperials descend from the stars, they don’t come to conquer—they come to collect. In this emotionally charged series, humans find themselves entangled with an advanced alien empire and kept as “pets” by grey-skinned humanoids that both adore and exploit them.
