Connor Masterson has finally managed to take some time off and go to Earth Con. For three days and nights, he's going to get his geek on without worrying about work or the latest edition of his science fiction manga. He never expected to find two men who embody all his dreams and fantasies there and certainly not right after signing in... moreConnor Masterson has finally managed to take some time off and go to Earth Con. For three days and nights, he's going to get his geek on without worrying about work or the latest edition of his science fiction manga. He never expected to find two men who embody all his dreams and fantasies there and certainly not right after signing in. Neither Valvik nor Zaraheed are looking forward to their current assignment: go to the Earth Con located in Austin, Texas and track down any and all rumors on the Ark scrolls, an ancient collection needed for the betterment of their dying people. Neither warrior expects to be drawn to a human, especially the same one. The two men are determined to stay as low key as possible while searching for the scrolls, but that might be hard to do when an intergalactic killer wants the scrolls for himself. Praise for Galactic Treasure "Space adventures? Check. Two hot aliens with a secret mission to find some mysterious artifact on Earth? Check. A slightly geeky guy who does not expect the impressive warriors (who he thinks are men dressed up in costumes for Earth Con, by the way) to give him the time of day? Check. Put these ingredients together, add a good dose of humor and, oh yes, a truly evil bad guy, shake well, and voilà, one portion of Galactic treasure ready to serve for your delight. It is certainly a recipe that worked well for me: very entertaining, more than a little hot, and overall a great story to read when you want to just sit back and relax for a while." -- Serena Yates, Rainbow Book Reviews less

Besides, Jody's a fantastic costumer, and she deserves all the attention she's not getting... moreJody's won the masquerade costume competition for four years running.
