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 113+ titles featured this week):
CLAIMED BY THE ALIEN BARBARIAN (BRIDES OF THE ZULDRUX WARRIORS BOOK THREE) by Ava Ross
Kerry: After I’m taken from Earth and dropped in an alien forest on a distant planet, I resign myself to never going home. There went my dream of finding someone to love. Then a gorgeous, blue-skinned and severely wounded alien stumbles into my campsite and collapses on the ground beside me. As I nurse him back to health, I start wondering if this seven-foot-tall, muscle-bound guy with shadows flickering in his teal eyes could be the one. Nevarn tells me he was traveling to the clan he grew up in, that he was banished for a crime he didn’t commit, and that he’s going to prove his innocence. When he asks me to help him, I realize there’s no place I’d rather be than at his side. Nevarn: After I was banished from my birth clan, I created a new life for myself in the forest far from home. But my banishment is over, and I’m determined to find out who framed me and find justice. On the way, I’m attacked and left for dead, and a beautiful human woman, Kerry, saves my life. When a symbol appears on my wrist, I know she’s my fated mate. She agrees to travel with me, and I see this as my chance to show her all a Zuldruxian male has to offer. But someone is following us, and it’s clear they’ll do anything to keep us from reaching our destination. I’d burn the world down to protect Kerry, but will we survive long enough to fall in love?
GUARDED BY AN ALIEN ASSASSIN by Honey Phillips
When Julie’s past comes back to haunt her, she finds an unexpected savior in the form of a towering, blue-skinned alien with a fierce scowl and muscles for days. She should be terrified. Instead she wants to get closer – much closer – to the brooding warrior, and not just because of the safety he promises. Q’tar’s mission is simple: eliminate his target and get the hell off of Earth. His bodyguard role is only temporary – until he’s ordered to protect a tiny, adorable female. Now all he wants is Julie – in his arms and in his bed. Forever. He’s finally found the mate he never thought he’d have, but can he keep her? Or will the truth of his identity destroy their chance at happiness?
