Here’s the weekly post from my author blog on the new releases I found to be of interest in my three favorite romance genres (which are also the ones I write in!), and related areas such as time travel, steampunk, paranormal cozy romances and more. I do sometimes cover other releases of note in science fiction and fantasy.
As always, I recommend sampling before you buy! I have not read most of the new releases listed (although I always end up one-clicking a bunch as I prepare these posts). I don’t pick up every single new release each week but try to provide a representative subset and lots of choices.
Here’s a teaser for this week’s first two books (jump to the blog to see the approximately 105+ titles featured this week):
SURVIVING SKARR (ICE PLANET CLONES BOOK TWO) by Ruby Dixon
VS Note: I love all variations on the Ice Planet!
Overnight, my life has changed to one of sheer survival. I wake up on a strange alien world covered in ice. I have no memories of myself, not even my name. And I’ve resonated to the biggest braggart on the planet. Skarr is a chest-beating alpha male gladiator with lizard genetics and an intense case of self-love. He tells everyone within hearing distance how amazing he is. Bleh. I want nothing to do with him, but according to the khui, we’re soulmates. This means we’re bound to have babies and live our lives out together…forever…Not if I have anything to say about it. To survive, I’m going to have to figure out who I am, what I am…and what to do about the man who won’t shut up about how incredible and perfect I am. It has to be an act… doesn’t it?
MY FAIR ALIEN (COSMIC CINEMA) by Honey Phillips
Can an alien professor decode the language of love? Professor Harak H’gin leads a peaceful life studying linguistics on his native planet of Plumeria. Until the day he stumbles across a bedraggled, beautiful human female. Dared by a colleague to transform the pitiful creature into a true member of their society, Harak takes on the challenge. Forced to eke out a meager living selling flowers, Liza is desperate to improve her situation. When a chance meeting offers the opportunity to become something more than a menial worker, she doesn’t hesitate – even though it means moving in with the arrogant, handsome alien. But somewhere along the way, the lines between teacher and student, human and Plumerian, begin to blur. Can Harak resist her newly discovered charms? And can Liza give her heart to an alien who only seems to think of her as an experiment?
