That means doing things by the book. Find salvage, turn it in, get paid. But everything changes when a retrieval mission lands him in a previously unknown sector. There, he finds the material he’s been sent to recover, along with something more. A brand-new form of ancient alien life.

Celia Kilis, the new captain of the Kayan hunter, the Kon, has found the developing planet and wants her brother back immediately.

West Golden - so easy to hate, yet so hard to resist. Don’t let that pretty face of his fool you. He isn’t the boy next door, or the kind you trust with your heart. He’s the devil in designer jeans, with all the charm of a bona fide psycho. Trust me. He swears I did something to cross him before I even stepped foot inside Cypress Prep, but it’s a lie. No one knows better than me that I’m all out of chances. His money, status, and the loyalty of his equally entitled brothers makes him seem untouchable. Only, I know better than that.

Tate Collins has betrayed United Earth for the last time. Noah and Kayan’s crew are on a mission to bring him to justice. All they must do is find him and defeat the betrayer’s stolen fleet of living warships and the most advanced drone swarm in UE history. Or so they believe when they begin the hunt. Unfortunately, the Seer are making their move and are determined to control Noah through the five powerful devices bound to his mind and body. His freedom and his life are on the line, but so is the fate of three galaxies.

Three years ago, I fell truly, madly, deeply in love. It was kind of hard not to when Cash Denton, the sexiest man alive, literally ran into me on the streets of Bordeaux, France, and kissed me. Best. Meet. Cute. Ever. That led to the best two months of my life. Or . . . so I thought, until Cash disappeared into thin air. At first, I assumed he was in a coma or had amnesia after a tragic accident, since there’s no way he would have left me. But that was just wishful thinking because, you guessed it, he ghosted me with a capital G.

Howdy, friend. I'm Rusty, and so is my big-rig's engine. When the old girl finally gave up the ghost in the middle of nowhere, I wasn't expecting to get a tow from an alien mothership. But the next thing I knew, me and my buddy Mike were halfway across the galaxy in an oversized hubcap full of the weirdest space creatures you ever did see. Turns out aliens are mighty friendly folks, but they can't fix their tech to save their lives.

When my husband died, he left my broken heart behind. He left another heart behind, too - his.
I know it's wrong. I shouldn't be contacting the recipient of my husband's heart. I don't even expect him to reply.... But there's a desperate, twisted part of me that hopes he will. No names. No personal details. Just a conversation. The only thing I have left of my husband is inside him.

Noah Gantz and Kayan's crew finally brought the Taliz swarm to the negotiating table and ushered in a new era Tytondom.

When Ryn, Scratch, and Cel disappear on their first mission, Noah and Kayan's crew investigate. Can they prevent a Masterless Tyton from springing a deadly trap, or will they learn what it means to become the hunted? By the end of the mission, they will learn what it takes to turn a Tyton colony into Terror Prime. Not all symbionts are friends, and teamwork may not be enough to ensure victory.

His end is the start of a new path. Tundra Fox, a cultivator of immense power and Sect Master of the Verdant Snow Sect, faces an eldritch god from beyond and dies. But that's only where his story begins. A time-artifact sends his soul back 10,000 years, when he was still in the earlier years of growing his Sect. With a second chance, Tundra will try to prevent family deaths, conflicts, and hopefully, try to raise descendants that don't become arrogant young masters.

Friends don’t let friends fake date alone. Oscar Wilde once said, “Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship.” Ha! Wrong. Dead wrong. And I can totally prove it. For the last seven years, I’ve been just friends with Jack Holiday—yes, that Jack Holiday. The swoon-worthy, ridiculously famous, self-proclaimed king of the silver screen. Passion? Love? Worship? Please. Unless you count how much Jack worships himself. Take that, Oscar!
