The cemetery is quiet. Peaceful. The perfect place for murder.

A woman searching for her lost memories is lured to the private graveyard. Remembering just the last ten years, she is killed before she finds answers.

When she resurrects in a secluded mansion, she has complete amnesia. The trio who bring her into their home are able to discover only her name: Zari Hunter.

Nickolas, his cousin Lucia, and lifelong friend Darius decide to help Zari recover her memories. However, Zari’s rescuers are not what they appear to be and have their own reasons for helping. They recognize Zari as someone with powers like theirs. But she also carries a dark energy that threatens them all.

Zari’s powers are erratic, dangerous and flare up whenever she is near the enigmatic Nickolas. Learning to control them before they consume her, as well as her new friends, is not an easy task. And seeking answers brings threats from quarters not even Nickolas Thane had considered. Threats that have plagued the unknowing Zari for years.

Threats that might make her next death her last.

FREE!Mari Yosoto has been keeping a dark and dangerous secret from everyone for the past three years. No one would believe her anyway, her ex-fiancé had seen to that. Instead of wallowing in misery, she stays busy, shuttling cargo to the Moon and back, enjoying the easy work and time alone.

Although Trevor Nash took the missing person’s job to help his former commanding officer, deep down he needed to see Mari again.

Life on Amargosa was supposed to be quiet for Cui Yun, better known by her call sign Suicide. 

But when a baby is dropped on her doorstep, the mother's disappearance leads her across the galaxy to a world of Neanderthals, a  devoted colony that worships Marilyn Monroe as a goddess, and a planet still in a post-apocalypse and rife with monster plants. 

She and her protege will find themselves above the galactic plain facing down an enemy that wants control of human evolution itself.

Excerpt:

The squat two-story shuttle surprised Suicide as it approached. Short, with a wide lower fuselage, it normally invoked fear in enemy troops. It meant another such craft had already disgorged a squad of Marines from orbit, and Navy or Border Guard Spec Force troopers waited inside to come swarming out. She knew. She had flown one of these during the liberation. The Gelt remaining on Amargosa had told her they did not like that many had been converted to civilian use.

She expected her visitor, however, to arrive by barrow, a ground vehicle favored by most of Amargosa’s rural inhabitants with two wheels in the front, a pair of treads in the back, and a long open bed behind the cab. Her friend had commandeered a military one for himself when the occupation ended, calling it, as so many of the liberators, resistance fighters, and stranded Gelt did, compensation for the war.

He normally came by barrow, the farm vehicle bouncing along the still-unpaved roads north of the Townships. That, or he would come by foot if he were in the Townships themselves. The shuttle, a type dubbed a “Falcon” by the Navy, told her he had been in one of the cities. Which meant he had been called to duty.

The Falcon bore the markings of the Amargosan Colonial Guard. Only lettering on the craft’s belly, “Property of Compact Navy,” gave any hint that it actually belonged to the Compact proper, not Amargosa. After two years, Suicide still did not know if she lived in the Compact or not. That civilian Gelt remained on the planet after their kind had trampled it for a year still surprised her, never mind Amargosa’s status in political limbo.

The craft settled in a wide section of thin, dry grass, its antigravs and maneuvering jets kicking up dust. Given the fuel a planetary hop would take, Suicide guessed her friend had been in the capital or had been shuttling to and from the surface. So much for bot wrangling.

The assault hatch fell open in the back, becoming a ramp as it lowered to the ground. Instead of a dozen hyped-up soldiers with KR-27 rifles lit up and racked, a single euro male strolled out wearing a civilian flight suit.

So, he’s Amargosa this time¸ she thought, not Navy. And not Hanar. This last, a polity started almost as an apology for a Gelt invasion elsewhere, had been making overtures to Amargosa to join with them. She had seen her friend in their uniform and in that of the Compact Navy since they both “retired” to this place.

He had been busy, a couple of days’ stubble on his chin, his already messy hair ruffled by wind, and matted with sweat. He had bags under his eyes, but he also walked with a bounce Suicide envied. Even rejuve could not restore that spring people had in their step before their twenty-fifth birthdays. Aging may have been stalled, even reversed in some cases, but it still took its toll in certain ways, just to remind humans that amortal still meant mortal.

Her friend needed rejuve. Never mind that he would not turn twenty for a few more months. The war and its aftereffects had changed him. The illusion of greater age that had served him as a ruse in his younger days now displayed the weight the occupation still had on him. He walked like a man whose burdens refused to leave.

“I came as soon as I heard,” he said. “Mom.” He winked.

The word “mom” brought a smile to her face, despite herself. Yes, it was a joke between them, but the word struck a nerve with her every time. This man was her son, if only by choice, and with no legal declaration. “JT, if I were your mother, you would have been spanked as a child.”

He took a pair of shades out of his breast pocket and put them on. The name “Lt. J.T. Austin” stood out on the pocket. “I’m glad I was never spanked until I was an adult.” He frowned. “Not that I’ve had much opportunity these days. You heard?”

“Governor Best? Yes.” She gestured toward the Falcon, the name Goldeneye stenciled on the side. “Yours?”

“The Colony’s,” said Austin. “Been flying over the pole the last couple of days, trying to rally some lycanth packs in case very bad things go down, and we’re on our own again.”

“What about our gray friends?” she said, referring to the Gelt. “Nervous? Hopeful?”

“They’re a bunch of scared settlers brought here against their will,” said Austin. “They’re just happy we’re not shooting them, and the lycanths aren’t trying to eat them. Well, the intelligent ones. We all need a shotgun and several boxes of shells to hold off the wild ones.” He glanced toward the hut. “You said you needed me. I flew straight here from my last run instead of to the farm. What’s happened?”

As if on cue, a baby’s cry sounded from the hut.

“Oh,” said Austin. “Well, that’s…”

“You know what the best part about considering you my son is?” said Suicide.

He gave her a half-smile. “It’s not real, and I was practically an adult when we met?” He gestured toward the house. “Lead the way.”

 Drake's Dream New Release & #Giveaway

Book Two in the Reyes Brothers Series is OUT!

UK Link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09B2J5W14 

Despite his family’s Psychic curse being broken, Drake Reyes doesn’t want anything to change, including his love life. He’s perfectly happy keeping things casual and friendly with whoever catches his eye. Then Rose shows up at the Halloween Fundraiser with her boyfriend and Drake sees his chance to get closer to her. He invites them both to his club for some risqué fun.

Rose Derby never expected Drake to be interested in hooking up after ditching her months ago in New York. His naughty proposition, however, has her mind spinning and heart racing. But things don’t go according to plan. She finds herself the target of some nasty Psychics, dredging up her painful past and infecting the present.

For them to have a future together, Drake and Rose must uncover the mysterious attackers while dealing with feelings neither has experienced before. When the danger hits close to home, Drake will stop at nothing to keep Rose safe, even if it means letting her go.

EXCERPT:

Sneaking into one of the server doors for the commercial kitchen, Drake nodded to a few of the men and waved at the women as he skirted through the catering staff, and rushed into the hallway.

He burst out of the secret passage in the library, startling a few of their guests. Drake apologized and focused on the secondary bar they’d set up, searching the group for her.

Having missed his chance to hook up with the fiery Empath back in New York during his summer visit, he was more than ready to try to get Rose into his bed now that she was in

London permanently. Rose had ‘gotten away’ once and he wasn’t going to let it happen again.

His eyes settled on a plump ass covered in black leather, one thigh strapped with a big Sci-Fi weapon. Drake’s backbone tingled. The curvy woman in the blue jacket turned around, her hazel eyes widening with recognition even with his mask on and lack of usual scruff.

“Hi!” she said, her Psychic block up tight, unlike the first time they met when she couldn’t take her eyes off him and her naughty thoughts ran free.

“Hey, hey, Rose Derby, so glad you made it,” he replied, lifting his hand, moving closer, trying to read her body language as she modeled the costume for him. She was still as fucking cute as the first time he saw her. Her fresh, freckled face and stunning smile lit up as he whistled at her outfit. “Trying to think…some bounty hunter?”

“Close,” she said with a laugh, shaking his hand casually, not coming in for a hug sadly, and brushing the curly raven hair from her shoulder in an obvious flirty move. “Dutch, super badass from this show when I was a kid.”

“Yeah, I…vaguely remember that. Sci-Fi, eh, not my favorite.”

“No? What do you like, Drake?” Rose’s smooth, tawny cheeks got darker, her voice dropped an octave, and those bright eyes glimmered.
