Leaving Earth was no longer safe as a human woman… Offered a trainee position in the Alliance, Hazel is on her way to Inea, the First Planet of the Alliance. She’s sad to miss the holiday season on Earth, and more than a bit concerned about the recent Krezlian attacks on spaceships leaving the solar system, but there’s no turning back now. When her worst nightmare comes true and the Krezlians attack the ship she’s on, Hazel can only put her trust on a beastly Ezak-X Alliance soldier... moreLeaving Earth was no longer safe as a human woman… Offered a trainee position in the Alliance, Hazel is on her way to Inea, the First Planet of the Alliance. She’s sad to miss the holiday season on Earth, and more than a bit concerned about the recent Krezlian attacks on spaceships leaving the solar system, but there’s no turning back now. When her worst nightmare comes true and the Krezlians attack the ship she’s on, Hazel can only put her trust on a beastly Ezak-X Alliance soldier. But why does she feel so drawn to him…? The word “vacation” didn’t exist in the Ezak-X vocabulary… Zeriq couldn’t have it worse. Just as he’s on leave from the military, unarmed and unprepared, the damned Krezlians attack the Alliance ship he’s on. Although he’d rather join the fight, a small human female tags along with him, clearly expecting him to get her to safety. He can’t just ignore her. But when their emergency shuttle malfunctions, they find themselves stranded on a frozen alien planet. Far from Inea, possibly even farther from Earth, they must fight the extreme conditions to survive. And although the temperature on the planet freezes, his body burns for the female… Miracle of the Beast is a steamy holiday romance set in the Mate of the Beast universe. Complete with a HEA and no cliffhangers. less

After a string of bad luck and rather poor choices, curvy Pippa Steele lands on an alien planet, in an unknown galaxy, where winter seems to reign supreme. When three handsome aliens save her from freezing to death, she hopes it won’t be that hard to convince them to give her a ride back to Earth. But first, she has to make them understand that no, she’s not an escaped slave, and they should definitely not return her to the slave trader who’d tricked her into boarding his ship... moreAfter a string of bad luck and rather poor choices, curvy Pippa Steele lands on an alien planet, in an unknown galaxy, where winter seems to reign supreme.

Trev, on the other hand, insists that she’s the key to ending the eternal winter on their planet. Whatever they decide to do with her, one thing’s for sure: the curvy Terran is nothing but trouble.

As the villagers close in on the demon, Reven races to find a way home and save the human female his heart desires. This is a standalone story in the Warlord Brides universe with a HEA, time travel, aliens, haunting gothic moors, and no cheating. less

Mads + Odessa = 4EVA Except forever ended when Mads kissed Odessa, bit her and then ghosted her. Twelve years later, he’s back and looking to pick up where they left off. Um, no thank you. Odessa has more to think about than her own heart. She’s now a single mom and can’t afford to get involved with a man with a track record of vanishing.

Twelve years later, he’s back and looking to pick up where they left off. Um, no thank you. Odessa has more to think about than her own heart. She’s now a single mom and can’t afford to get involved with a man with a track record of vanishing. It doesn’t matter that he’s haunted her dreams for years. Or that when they’re together, she feels like she can finally breathe. And it certainly doesn’t matter that her traitorous body craves his touch. Besides, Mads hoards secrets like they’re made of chocolate. One, he’s an alien shifter. Like he turns into a reindeer with antlers and everything. Two, that bite made them bonded mates. And the third secret is the most dangerous of all. How can they have a second-chance at love when the sins of the past threaten to tear them apart? The authors of Starr Huntress were given a challenge: give readers a reindeer shifter in your holiday story. We all agreed to call our shifters “reilendeer” and decided they bring good cheer to the world around them… and then we went crazy! You might notice differences about the world and abilities of the reilendeer from story to story, and that’s because each author has put her own spin on the challenge. Now it’s time to grab your eggnog, cuddle up by the fire, and enjoy these steamy alien shifters. less

Kaelar is committed to the season and the work that comes with it—even when it means working against evil aliens whose mission is to vacuum away all the joy the reindeer fight to keep alive... moreDashing through the snow is no fun when you're running for your life...

When I meet the gorgeous, curvy angel who was driving the car, I immediately want to put her on top of my Christmas tree.​ ​ But other aliens have made their way to Earth, too. The kind who destroys entire planets. The only way to protect Holly would be to leave her behind and force the monsters to follow me. That isn’t going to happen, though. Nothing is going to come between my mate and me.​ ​ All I want is a freaking jolly Christmas!​ My holiday cheer is put to the test when I’m robbed at work on Christmas Eve and forget about my parents’ anniversary party. Dashing through the snow, things take a turn for the worse when I hit something. Then the crazy naked man who’d been running through the woods yells at me. I’d kill him if I could stop myself from staring at his breathtaking body.​ ​ If this fool of a reindeer shifter thinks I’m going to let him save Christmas from the other aliens all by himself, I’ll have to kiss some sense into him. We’re like a good pair of winter mittens, complete opposites but a perfect pair when we're together.​ less
