MY ALIEN BODYGUARD (ALIEN ABDUCTORS BOOK 5) by Calista Skye

Freya – I’m stuck in an alien trap, running from a monster. It’s a deadly tunnel overgrown with weird plants and swarming with strange, lethal lifeforms. The monster I’m running from is called Tocran. He’s eight feet tall and looks like an iceberg about to explode with fire from inside. He claims to be my bodyguard. All I know is that he caught me in a net and abducted me from Earth. And that he has a really big bulge in his crotch, one that twitches every time he looks at me with those hungry, yellow eyes. There are crazy movements and sweet, heady smells and pheromones everywhere. Because in this crazy world, it’s Mating season. And it’s starting to get to me.
If Tocran catches me, I know what will happen. And what scares me the most: I’m not sure I’ll fight him that hard…Tocran – She’s running straight into deadly danger. I should let her run and save myself. But I’m her bodyguard. And she’s too alluring to leave alone. I will catch her. And when I do, there must be some consequence. I think it could turn out very pleasantly for me. For her, the delight may be less. But that doesn’t bother me. After all, she is only a possession.     Amazon KU

FRIAK’S SPARK (CHILDREN OF THE DEADFALL BOOK 4) by Susan Trombley

Friak – I spent years in a parallel dimension, jumping to serve the whims of a female I’d believed to be my one true mate. Then I learned the truth about her the hard way after failing to complete a mission she’d given me. I discovered that she had only been using me—and turning me into a monster in the process. After my actions led to my Uncle Gray having to destroy the Nexus dimensional portal, it ended up stranding a human woman named Valerie in our world. When I sought her out to apologize for her circumstances and my unwitting part in them, I was stunned to feel my flame stirring in the ashes left behind by my former spark. It seemed that I had somehow been given a second chance at love with a new spark. Such a thing was unprecedented for my father’s people, the Histri’i, and could only be a gift of fate. The only problem was that I could not accept that gift. I was unworthy of my new spark after all that I had done for the previous one. Valerie deserved better than me, and the only way I could convince her of that was to make her hate me enough to keep me at a distance. When fate proved determined and thrust us back together again in a situation we couldn’t escape, I realized that all my efforts to deny my spark were futile. I needed her, more than I needed my next breath, and I couldn’t resist her any longer. I had to claim her as mine—and once I did, I would never let her go. Even if it meant reconciling with my cousin—who had threatened my life the last time we spoke.     Amazon KU

Finding his mate, a beautiful human female with exceptional fighting skills and a talent for obtaining items that don’t belong to her, has never been part of his plans.

Bear Shifter Executive Assistant – Spilled coffee, dropped files, and scheduling issues were the hallmark of my career as an executive assistant for a billionaire dragon shifter, Sean. As soon as I laid eyes on him, butterflies exploded inside of me, and my heart stopped. He was the sexiest dragon shifter I had ever seen in my entire life. He fired me, but then rehired me after he discovered that while I was a terrible executive assistant, I was great at running his life. I was a bear shifter, but he thought that I was a regular human. I figured that he didn’t need to know, so I never bothered to tell him. If only I had known how that would complicate things later. Can a fake engagement with a dragon shifter end with real love? Dragon Shifter Billionaire – I left the shifter world to avoid the conflict between my father and my brother.

My father wanted me to take the title of Alpha, and at the same time, choose a mate. My personal assistant, Kaiya, seemed like a good choice. No one had to know she was human. I would hire her to be my fake fiancé, and then use a spell from a witch friend to make her forget everything when we returned to the human world. How was I to know that my “human” fake fiancé was a bear shifter who grew up in the same shifter world? How could I guess that my parents would grow to love her – and so would I?

MIST AND MARROW (BREAKING TRADITION BOOK 2) by Mary Calmes

Linden Van Doren is in a strange position. He’s an emancipated omega holding down two jobs, so he should be out from under anyone’s thumb but in reality, there are still weird lupine rules to follow. For instance, if an alpha wants to court him, he’s not allowed to say no. If that same alpha asks for his hand in bonding, however, as there’s no contract that anyone holds but him, he can certainly say no to that. And would. He trusts no alpha to keep their word even though they’re the only ones who could make his dreams come true. [SNIP] Wade has never actually met anyone who needs someone looking out for them more and really, no one but Wade can be trusted to do it and keep their hands off the tantalizing man. When the FBI comes knocking because omegas have gone missing, Wade finds out that Linden has been far more active in the fight to help other omegas than he imagined. When both men are drafted to help, they are suddenly thrown together in a situation where, for once, neither of them can walk away. Wade’s been great at making excuses and Linny’s been fantastic about hiding his feelings. None of that works anymore. Linden knows he wants Wade—he knew the night the possessive human carried him out of hell—but loving someone who can never return his feelings is stupid and Linden’s finished with that. Wade’s never been attracted to a man before and perhaps it’s not desire or lust, but simply his protective instincts gone wild. If neither of them can be brave, there’s no hope for the future. But perhaps just winnowing through the mist of confusion down to the marrow where the truth lies will set them both free.     Amazon KU

WOMAN, EATING: A LITERARY VAMPIRE NOVEL by Claire Kohda

Lydia is hungry. She’s always wanted to try Japanese food. Sashimi, ramen, onigiri with sour plum stuffed inside – the food her Japanese father liked to eat. And then there is bubble tea and iced-coffee, ice cream and cake, and foraged herbs and plants, and the vegetables grown by the other young artists at the London studio space she is secretly squatting in. But, Lydia can’t eat any of these things. Her body doesn’t work like those of other people. The only thing she can digest is blood, and it turns out that sourcing fresh pigs’ blood in London – where she is living away from her vampire mother for the first time – is much more difficult than she’d anticipated. Then there are the humans – the other artists at the studio space, the people at the gallery she interns at, the strange men that follow her after dark, and Ben, a boyish, goofy-grinned artist she is developing feelings for. Lydia knows that they are her natural prey, but she can’t bring herself to feed on them. In her windowless studio, where she paints and studies the work of other artists, binge-watches Buffy the Vampire Slayer and videos of people eating food on YouTube and Instagram, Lydia considers her place in the world. She has many of the things humans wish for – perpetual youth, near-invulnerability, immortality – but she is miserable; she is lonely; and she is hungry – always hungry. As Lydia develops as a woman and an artist, she will learn that she must reconcile the conflicts within her – between her demon and human sides, her mixed ethnic heritage, and her relationship with food, and, in turn, humans – if she is to find a way to exist in the world. Before any of this, however, she must eat.      Amazon     AB     Apple Books     Kobo

The question is, can I figure out what’s going on before it all blows up in my face? Sledge and Claw is an MM Urban Fantasy with triggers for the horrors of slave trafficking and consent issues.

VS: The next book up in my STAR CRUISE backlist:

STAR CRUISE IDOL’S CURSE

An unusual bequest….

Juli Shaeffer, the Nebula Zephyr’s cruise director, receives a mysterious bequest from the estate of a longtime passenger – a lump of rock taken from a reef on the planet Tahumaroa. Legend states anyone who steals from the ocean gods will be cursed. The passenger’s will requests the rock be returned to the beach so his heirs won’t be affected by the bad luck he believed he’d incurred. Juli doesn’t believe in superstitions and she agrees to carry out this small favor on the ship’s next stop at the planet in question.

Until the rock disappears from her office…

When the rock disappears and reappears in various locations around the ship, and seems connected to a steadily escalating series of mishaps, Juli turns to Third Officer Steve Aureli as the only one she feels she can trust. Along with Steve and his elderly Aunt Dian – a passenger aboard the Nebula Zephyr for this cruise – she investigates the strange series of malfunctions plaguing the interstellar luxury liner. Steve and Juli enlist his Aunt Dian’s dog, Charrli, a retired Sectors Z Corps canine, to help them track the missing rock as it moves about the ship.

Juli and Steve must find the rock, hang onto it and transport it to the planet’s surface, before the alien idol’s curse turns deadly. The attraction between the two of them grows as the threat to Juli becomes more and more focused. Can she carry out her task while he keeps her safe from the alien curse? Will the capricious alien idol bring them good fortune…or disaster?

This is a re-release of the 42,000+ word novel I included in the Pets in Space® 4 anthology, which is no longer available. No revisions or additions have been made to the original novel for this re-release. I have also now included a 4,000 word prequel story Butterfly Hair, in which the diva Azlaya arrives on board the Nebula Zephyr. This short story was a free reader magnet available only in the time before the anthology was originally published.

“New” is generally plus or minus a week or two. I try to catch up on ones I missed in recent months.  And I may mention ‘special items’.

I do NOT cover every single new release in SFR/FantasyR/PNR. I never have. That would be an impossible task for any human! I assemble my list by hand every week based on various informal inputs, and I do curate the list to some extent…

Some authors aren’t in KU but still don’t list books with Apple or other platforms. This report is very time consuming to prepare so I’ve always had to limit myself and cannot go and look up every book on all the platforms. If an author gives me their other buy links, I include them here but generally I develop the post on my own, not from author-supplied information. I curate and prepare this post individually every week to help connect readers/books/authors and I have to be very careful not to give it so much time as an activity that I don’t write my own novels! Thanks for the feedback and happy reading!

I check and verify all the buy links at the time I create the post  but after that I’m not responsible.
