We hope you agree with us, rather than with Brenda, that it’s a useful addition to the debate.---Credits:Viral Tribe Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Calista is happy with her life of scientific research. She doesn't need love, she has her books, her friends, and her work. Things are fine until her ship is attacked by space pirates and crash lands on a desert planet with heat so intense she and her friends can't survive without help. Ladon is a Zmaj warrior resigned to a life alone, who only desires to protect his treasures. His hopes for a mate faded long ago, yet when he meets Calista something stirs. It takes only one look to know that she belongs to him.

I guess I'm one of the last survivors of the human race, and I'm stranded on this hell of a desert alien planet. Sucks to be me. Our ship crashed months ago, and those of us left are struggling to survive the boiling heat in barbaric living conditions. The only reason we're not all dead is one of my friends got knocked up by a native alien, and he lets us live in his ruined city.

Before the generation ship crashed on this desert alien planet, I was a vagrant. Unplanned and unwanted, struggling to survive. Now, we're on Tajss, and if not for the natives, seven-foot-tall dragon-men with wings and tails and scales, we'd all be dead. My new friends are finding love, and I couldn't be happier for them, but I want to fit in, I want to have a place and a purpose. Strangely enough, the only one who might understand is one of those scaled dragon-men. I wanted comfort and attention, but it turns out "one-night stand" doesn't translate into Zmaj.

Like being stranded on a desert alien planet wasn't enough.... All I ever wanted was someone to love. Now my best friend is knocked up by the only hunky alien-dragon available and I can't tell anyone how totally jealous I am. The handful of humans who survived our ship's crash are locked in a struggle to live in sweltering heat with dwindling supplies. The others are taking the life giving, addictive epis but if I take it that means I'm stuck here. Forever. Which also means the chance of being rescued by a knight in shining armor would be zero.

A Dragon Hunter for me? No way. Olivia thinks it's impossible that the outrageously tall Zmaj with steely blue eyes would fall for her. A former data analyst, now she's just another human crash survivor on the harsh and alien desert planet. Smart, curvaceous Olivia doesn't feel like she measures up but that doesn't stop Ragnar from eyeing her luscious curves. He's the best hunter for the Tribe, driven and single-minded. Ragnar has always put the needs of his people over his own and never once regretted it, but now the dominant alpha male has his heart set on a different treasure.

While on a college-sponsored field trip to experience a real archaeology dig, Missouri University student Quinn Cameron is separated from the rest of her class by a heavy fog. A fog that transports her back in time, to 1592. Something that even her 3.8 GPA and sarcastic wit won't be enough to help her survive. Now she's in a primitive world she has only studied in books. History, she learns, is a far cry from the comfort and security of her former life. And her only safe harbor from politics and violence is Duncan MacGregor, a valiant, brooding, and mysterious Scottish warrior.

On a trip to Scotland, Highland Mists transported me to the past where I met the Highlander, Duncan MacGregor. The man who stole my heart. The Fae I met there say I have a destiny. Either save or end magic. Save this world or replace it with another. They label me "Destroyer". Now I've been pulled back to the modern world. The Fae are silent, but all I want is to get back. Back to the Scottish Highlands and the man who holds my heart.

I thought returning to the past would be the hard part . . . I make it back to the past but when I get there, the trouble has already begun. The MacGregor name has been outlawed. Those who bear it are being hunted like animals. The Clan MacGregor is driven from their lands and retreat to the Highlands, their ancestral home. All I want is to find Duncan, but when I finally get news of him, it's not bad, it's terrible. He's been captured by Lord Nicholas. A Scottish noble known for his dark, evil acts before the troubles and what he's doing to MacGregors is unspeakable
