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 90+ titles featured this week):
A PRIZE FOR CKZARR (TALLEAN MERCENARIES BOOK NINE) by Lynnea Lee
What’s worse than falling in love with my sexy, musclebound alien boss? Falling in love with my alien boss when I know I’m not his mate. That’s why I keep my emotional distance, even though we work side by side every day. Ckzarr has the body of a god and is a beast in the bedroom. How do I know? Because we’ve already failed compatibility testing. Multiple times. I’m not his mate. End of story. Too bad my body remembers his every touch, and when he tells me “Good job,” all I hear is “Good girl.” But when we’re captured by pirates and forced to spend every moment together as we escape and stay one step ahead of those who seek his bounty, Ckzarr’s protectiveness and possessiveness are dialed up to the max. How will I ever make it out alive without losing my heart?
CELENK (HOW THE ALIENS WERE WON BOOK FIVE) by Honey Phillips
Disillusioned by the war, Celenk now uses the skills he learned for profit. He takes whatever jobs are offered, no questions asked. Infiltrate a remote farming community to gather information? No problem. Finding someone to act as his mate is a little more difficult – until a quiet little waitress catches his eye. Lottie is tired of low pay, long hours, and the drudgery of her life in the city. When one of her customers offers her a chance to escape, she doesn’t hesitate – even if means pretending to be madly in love with a huge reptilian alien. They know very little about each other, but the more time that they spend together, the less their relationship feels like an act. But Celenk still has a job to complete, one that means betraying the female, and the community, he’s beginning to love.
