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):
TREASURED BY THE ALIEN ROGUE (BRIDES OF THE ZULDRUX WARRIORS BOOK TWO) by Ava Ross
Stolen from Earth, I was sent to a distant planet to become the bride of a big blue alien. Do I dare let this gruff guy inside my heart? Amanda: With my boss out to kill me, I run, only to be abducted by robocops. They knock me out and the next thing I know, the tiny pod I’m riding in crashes into a purple lake and a loincloth-wearing alien with lots of muscles, tusks, and a sardonic smile rescues me. Xax takes me home to his clan and announces I’m his new mate. There goes my dream of opening a tea shop in a cute little coastal Earth town. But between building me a tea shop and protecting me from every scary thing that comes near, I’m finding Xax hard to resist. Xax: Our plant god has gifted me with a mate, and I’m going to do all I can to satisfy her in every way possible. I’ll pluck leaves in the forest to make tea. I’ll call vines to construct a structure to house her new business. And I’ll tame a wild creature if it will make her smile. But all of this may not be enough. Can I convince Amanda to remain on Zuldrux as my bride?
THE EDGE OF DAWN: DARKSTAR MERCENARIES BOOK EIGHT by Anna Carven
Since the accident, Jade’s world has become so loud. Something’s wrong. The voices of hundreds of souls echo loudly inside her head. The doctors, the administrators, and even those closest to her are convinced she has a condition. They say she needs to be under the care of the authorities. Nobody listens to her. Nobody believes her. She has no choice but to run. Her once-predictable life is in tatters. All she knows is chaos and fear. They’ll catch her soon. She has nowhere to go. Until she encounters a stranger in her dreams. Not just any stranger, but an alien. A Kordolian. Silver-and-dark. Honed like a weapon. So obviously dangerous. One of the very beings that threatens the future of the entire human species. Or so she’s been told. But what if salvation comes in the most unexpected form?
