Summary: Welcome to Andromeda Valley! Roswell of the North! Zane Healy I’ve always known aliens were real. Growing up in Andromeda Valley is all about the kitschy tourism and the moon-rock candy, but I believed, and I couldn’t wait to move back once I got my nurse practitioner’s license.. And now, one of them is living in my house. Technically, he’s my patient. A very bad patient. He’s grumpy. He’s resistant to treatment—and kindness. And he’s hot. He’s really, really hot. Did I mention that he’s hot? Now I’m tasked with nursing him back to health, all while ignoring my growing attraction. Humans and aliens shouldn’t mix. So why do I hate the idea of letting him go? Ja’Lin After our ship crashed, I am stranded on Earth. My lungs struggle to breathe the unfamiliar atmosphere, my body is weak, and I am being cared for by the worst doctor. Zane insists on feeding me healthy food, pestering me about my feelings, and caring for my every need. It is intolerable. I don’t care that my people first landed in Andromeda Valley a hundred years ago. I don’t care that there’s a town festival in our honor. I don’t care that Zane is kind and his touch awakens things inside me that I thought I had given up when I joined this expedition. But now some locals are excavating an ancient relic of my people, the first Andromedans to land on Earth. Their discovery might hold the key to going home. That’s what I want. Isn’t it? Heart like Blue-Black Night is a M/M alien romance novella, book 2 in a series that follows these otherworldly castaways as they find ways to fit into the quirky small town of Andromeda Valley. For fans of alien x human pairings, enemies-to-lovers, and fish-out-of-water stories.

Summary: Detective Sawyer Villeray has his hands full. He’s got a mercurial partner whose personal life is deteriorating, a semi-estranged family whose drama he can never fully escape… and now a series of murders whose only connection is their sheer weirdness. A serious crush on the county medical examiner doesn’t exactly simplify things, but at least it’s fun. Or, well, it would be if said M.E. didn’t adamantly refuse to date cops. Or if his assistant wasn’t quite so hostile to anyone who looked his way. Dr. Bashir Ramin would very much like to catch a break. A date that isn’t interrupted by death. A fellow pathologist who isn’t a cranky jerk. A forensic assistant who doesn’t gnash her teeth any time Bashir is interested in someone. And maybe, if he’s lucky, an autopsy that isn’t such a baffling puzzle, it leaves him wondering if he’s as good at his job as he thought he was. At this point, the annoying but cute detective is the one good thing in his world. Too bad Bashir doesn’t date cops. Right? But there’s no time for romance. As the bizarre murders keep piling up, Sawyer and Bashir need to work together to stop a killer. Ideally before one of them becomes the next target.

Summary:   Hephaestus, ancient Greek God of fire, metallurgy, and volcanoes, had lived a quiet life on earth, with the three cyclops his only companions. It was a lonely life, especially for one who'd never felt as though he belonged with his kin, but Hephaestus believed he was content. Until one afternoon, when he got blinded by a light, and right before his eyes, the one the Fates intended for him was sprawled on the road, all thanks to his inattention. Finding out later the little shifter was homeless, all compounded the guilt he was feeling. Landyn, a small Black Footed Ferret shifter, hadn't stopped running for two years.

When a random man finds him at the bridge he'd been sheltering under, he truly thought his life was done. But the Fates love it when two misfits find each other, and Landyn and Hephaestus find a connection, even when the only thing they have in common is the fact they believe their mate would be better off with someone else. Unfortunately, there are others who are not as happy with their mating, and they'll do anything to split the two apart. Can Hephaestus and Landyn overcome the odds, or will their dreams of belonging disappear into the flames of Hephaestus's forge?
