You’ve Got Aliens
Alienn, Arkansas 1
Librarian and aspiring journalist Juliana Masters has a mystery to solve: Who am I? Armed with the truth about her past, she can leave her humdrum present behind and get on with her future. She just needs to complete one lucrative investigative writing assignment and she’ll be on her way. All she has to do is prove aliens live and work out of a secret facility based under the Big Bang Truck Stop. No problem. Getting her socks knocked off by the Fearless Leader isn’t part of the plan.
Diesel Grey worked for years to achieve his goal of heading up the family business in Alienn, Arkansas. Mission accomplished, but being Fearless Leader of a galactic way station comes with a lot more headaches than anticipated. It’s hard to consider the shockingly well-informed writer a headache, though, especially when she makes him ache in all the right places.
If he’s not careful, he’ll give her everything she needs to blow his family’s cover and expose to the human world that aliens do walk among them.
All he really wants to do is sweep her up in his arms and never let her go.
How to Lose an Alien in 10 Days
Alienn, Arkansas 2
Alexandria Latham Borne is supposed to marry into one of Alpha-Prime’s most prestigious families. Her unwanted future fiancé has wealth, breeding, social status…and that’s about it. She is less than wowed during their luxury get-to-know-you journey to Earth. Once the spaceship docks in Alienn, Arkansas, Ria jumps at the chance to jump ship and explore the colony of extraterrestrials hiding in plain sight.
Cam Grey takes his job as chief of security at the galactic way station and the Big Bang Truck Stop operated by his family very seriously, but even he needs a break. No one suspects the by-the-book enforcer’s secret refuge is the karaoke bar just over the county line from Alienn, Arkansas. It starts out as just another night of uncomplicated amusement. But no one is more surprised than the jaded Alpha when the gorgeous woman with blue-streaked hair sings her way into his bed—and his heart.
When he learns his sexy karaoke singer has defied colony rules, putting them all at risk of discovery by the unsuspecting earthlings, he knows his duty. What he should do is lock her in the brig. What he does do is ignore all the rules he’s spent his career upholding.
Cam’s also been burned by love before, but his mischievous Ria is a rule-breaker he can’t resist.
Is she a heartbreaker, too?
My Big Fat Alien Wedding
Alienn Arkansas 3
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.
Easygoing Axel Grey, second son and head of communications for the family business at the Big Bang Truck Stop in Alienn, Arkansas, doesn’t care a lick of spit for protocol or pompous off-world VIPs. On the other hand, he has all the time in the world for a captivating young woman with red-streaked hair, a mesmerizing smile and a contagious sense of wonder. One stolen dance in a convenience store doorway later and he’s ready to give Lucy anything…including his heart.
Lucy basks in Axel’s admiration, blossoming under his regard like a flower starved of sunlight. In their too-short time together, he makes her feel amazing instead of awkward, a treasure instead of an obligation.
Of course, a future together is impossible. Her mother has seen to that.

Biker
Despite the danger, there are some definite pluses to undercover agent Zak Langston’s current alias as a mechanic slash low-life criminal. He doesn’t have to shave regularly or keep his hair military short. He gets to ride a damn fine Harley. And then there’s the sweet, sexy lady next door who likes to sneak peeks at his butt. Yeah, that was a major plus.
Kaitlin Price has had the worst luck with men. As if her unearned reputation as a frigid tease isn’t enough, she also has to deal with her stepsister’s casual cruelty and taunting tales of sexual conquests she can only dream of. So Kaitlin has never been with a man. So what? So what…
So maybe the sexy bad boy next door would be willing to help her with that.
Gunfire, gangsters and a kidnapping weren’t part of her Deflower Kaitlin plan. Good thing for her bad boy Zak is very, very good. At everything.
Bouncer
DEA Agent Reece Langston has spent a year at the city’s hottest club, working his way closer to the core of a money laundering operation. Women throw themselves at him all the time, but there’s only one he’s interested in catching. And she won’t even tell him her name.
FBI Agent Jessica Hayes doesn’t know much about the sexy stranger except that he’s tall, dark and gorgeous. Best of all, he seems just as drawn to her as she is to him—in other words, he’s the perfect man to show one kick-ass virgin what sex is all about. No names, no strings and no regrets.
Their one-night stand turns into two. Then a date. Then…maybe more.
Everything is going deliciously well until Jessica’s boss orders her to use her lover to further an FBI operation.
Everything is going deliciously well until Reece’s handler orders him to use his lover to get closer to his target.
Is their desire enough to match the danger and deception?
Bodyguard
The baseball stadium is torture for Chloe Wakefield, from the noisy stands to the slimy man her colleague set her up with.
Too bad she isn’t with the sexy stud seated on her other side. He shares his popcorn. Shields her from the crowd. And, when the kiss cam swings their way, gives her a lip-lock that knocks her socks into the next county.
Goodbye, vile blind date. Hello, gorgeous stranger.
Staying under the radar is pretty much a job requisite for bodyguard Deke Langston, but he can’t resist tasting Chloe’s sweet lips. Nor her sweet invitation into her bed, where the sensuous little virgin proceeds to blow his mind.
But someone doesn’t like how close they are getting. The thought that scares Deke the most is that another woman in his care might be hurt because of his past.
All of Deke’s skills are put to the test as he and Chloe race to solve the puzzle of who is plotting against them.
Chloe’s in danger and Deke has never had a more precious body to guard.
Bomb Tech
Bomb tech and firefighter Alex Langston has a reputation around the station as a bad-boy, love ’em and leave ’em type, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. He wants nothing more than a quiet life after a military tour that saw him in some very hot situations overseas. He garners more than his fair share of feminine attention, but hasn’t felt so much as a spark of interest for any woman since landing in Ironwood, Arizona…until now.
Schoolteacher Veronica Quentin was warned to keep her guard up around Alex. The last thing she wants is to be a notch on some sexy stud’s bedpost. She’s been used before, and knows well the heartache that can bring. But that was before she saw him. And before he rescued her from a mysterious kidnapping that saw her chained half-naked in the town square with a bomb strapped to her chest.
But is Veronica the real target? Or has someone set their sights on Alex?
Until they find out, they can’t trust anyone but each other. And the sensual flames that ignite whenever they’re together.
Bounty Hunter
Dalton Langston has a sixth sense when it comes to tracking his quarry. He has a talent for getting in his prey’s mind. Now, the only thing
he’s interested in hunting is some rest and relaxation in Las Vegas. The last thing he wants is to get dragged into chasing after some runaway rich girl.
Lina Dragovic has eluded everyone her parents have sent after her in their efforts to force her into an arranged marriage. She’s served her time as the Dragovic crime family’s cloistered daughter. Now all she wants is her freedom. What better place to hide than Sin City, where the bright lights offer the deepest shadows?
But there’s no outrunning the dangerously sexy bounty hunter…especially when getting caught by him is so tempting. And so deliciously rewarding.
Falling in love was never part of the plan.
Bandit
Miles Turner, a handler and operative with The Organization, a private security firm, is used to always being the man with the plan, the guy in control of everything around him. He can’t imagine any situation that would get the better of him—until he meets Sophie.
Travelling sales rep Sophie Rayburn has been burned by love before, but she’s determined not to spend Christmas Eve alone. When she spots sexy Miles at a run-down bar in a Podunk New Mexico bar, she decides he’d make the perfect gift to herself. Why shouldn’t she indulge them both with a little holiday cheer between the sheets?
Sensual sparks fly as soon as they come together, like they were made for each other, in bed and out. A kidnapping, a drug scam and a dangerous mole don’t stand a chance.
Sweet, sexy Sophie is enough to make even a good man lose total control. And Miles is not good. He’s all bad boy.
