Years earlier, Marine veteran and former Dallas Police Sergeant Jake Hathaway allowed federal government scientists to conduct top-secret experiments on his soldiers, and on himself. They were given supplements designed to transform them into "Invincible Warriors". Instead, the formula became tainted by some pesky, infectious prions. The result was a virus that transforms exposed humans, some more gradually than others, into frenzied, flesh-eating, cannibalistic zombies!

After seeing one of the women I was captured with carried off by a massive alien barbarian, and another one led up into the mountains to be traded away, I’m done waiting to see what my fate will be. So when I get a chance to escape the Uleki village, I take it, even though it means I’ll have to face the wilds of Xaath alone.

After being held captive by the Kruul for weeks, it’s a relief to finally be free. Or…mostly free. Instead of being locked up in a holding cell, I’m now stuck on a broken spaceship with a sexy silver fox who seems to hate me. Although it’s clear that Anzir intends to complete his rescue mission and keep me safe, I can tell he’s not happy about it. We get under each other’s skin, and I’m not sure why. Maybe it’s because he’s older than me, or because I’m an optimist and he’s the grouchiest, most stoic man I’ve ever met.

Cheating boyfriend. Check. Broken down car. Check. Four hot guys that want me to go on a road trip with them. Quadruple check. Couldn’t be worse than what I’ve already been through...could it? I mean, what could go wrong on a road trip with four hot men? The guys - Maddox, Lenny, Callan, and Alec. They’ve spent countless years searching, falling apart to almost nothing. None of them have much left to give, until they hit one lucky town. Friday is who they've been looking for, but how do they tell her? How do they tell her what they are…what she is?

After escaping from the cruel alien trader who kept me captive for years, I’ve been hiding out on a massive ship full of alien warriors called Zivonians. I’ve even found the perfect hiding place: a smaller ship tucked away in the docking bay. Except...maybe my hiding spot isn’t that good after all. How was I supposed to know that one of the Zivonian warriors would steal a ship, so he could go on a dangerous mission to track down his lost brother? How was I supposed to know he’d pick the exact same ship I did?

The Kruul who captured me and my sister promised me they’ll let her live if I do one thing for them: infiltrate the Zivonians’ ship and find a way to destroy it. I’d do anything to protect Maya, so I have no choice but to accept their bargain. The only problem is, the Zivonians are nothing like I expected—especially Siro, the gorgeous alien captain. And for some reason, he seems as drawn to me as I am to him. Getting close to him will give me the best chance to carry out my sabotage of the ship, but with every minute we spend together, I can feel my resolve wavering.

It’s been months since we crashed into the Zivonians’ ship and were offered a place to stay, and in that time, I thought I had explored every part of The Oasis. But I was wrong. There’s one new place I just discovered: the brig. I wound up down there by accident, and now I can’t stop thinking about the Zivonian prisoner with the mesmerizing eyes and the intense stare. I know I shouldn’t let myself be drawn to him. He’s behind bars, after all. The smartest thing would be to forget all about him. But for some reason, I can’t stop myself from going back to visit him.

As one of 50 teams, human Sadie and genetically engineered 1213 are thrown together with one mission: outlive the other 49 teams and make it to the finish line. Between brutal competitors, harsh terrain, and deadly predators, the challenge is as relentless as the feral passion and sweet affection that detonates between them after the sun sets each night. Can they put aside their differences, work together, and triumph against the odds?

When technical failures force us to abandon The Oasis, I end up alone in an escape pod with a dashing Zivonian warrior named Raza. If our situation was bad to start with, it gets a whole lot worse when the pod malfunctions, separating us from the others and sending us hurtling toward the surface of the planet where we’d hoped to settle.

Bound to steal her queen's magical bones, thief Lynne knows only one mistake equals death. And yet, she dreams of living in the forbidden world upon the surface, hating every minute in the Underworld. When she secretly develops a crush on a human, she loses a bone in his realm and has no choice but to strike a deal with the only one who could help—an evil witch. To save her life, she must earn the man’s love and bring back the bone in 99 days.

Traumatized as a teen by a brutal act of violence that would seriously scald his temporal lobe, young Niccolo Abruzzi was institutionalized for a while. After many months away restoring his mental wellness, he eventually learned how to cope with that past. Having inherited the family eatery in a quaint part of the Bronx, New York called ‘Little Italy,’ Nick assumed his new role of restaurateur.

I thought I'd escaped being given to an alien warrior. I was wrong. I was one hour away from washing out of the Alien Bride Games. None of the Khanavai warriors had chosen me, and I was scheduled on the next shuttle off the filming station. Then, a bright red alien passed me in a hallway—and the next thing I knew, we were all over each other. Bad enough that my name had been drawn in the Bride Lottery. Now, even though they're supposedly over, I'm back in the Games. And not the usual ones, either—a whole new set of challenges, just for me. Guess it'll make for good television back home.

I'm done being someone's second best. And I have the scars from my first marriage to prove it. Now that I'm stuck with a dragon shifter, it's going to take more than muscles as hard as a good D to convince me that they're serious. Of course, if it wasn't for my big mouth I wouldn't be in this situation to begin with. I was there when the ceasefire terms were presented by the dragons. They demanded eight women a year as tribute. My ex-husband, 'The General,' argued that we should never surrender. I said he was an idiot, and that we were losing.
