I have a new release this week too!
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):
DARIK’S QUEST: A BADARI WARRIORS SCIFI ROMANCE NOVELLA (SECTORS NEW ALLIES SERIES) by Veronica Scott
Long mated, Darik and Nicolle have had trouble starting a family and the stress of the situation has begun to fray their mate bond. Finally Darik asks the goddess for help. She sends him through space and time to the planet of the Badari ancestors, where he must fulfill a quest in seven days, which she promises will help him and all his Badari brothers and their mates. Darik faces great danger without the support of his pack and undergoes a life-changing event before he faces the final dangerous barrier to success. With everything at stake now, including his life, can he accomplish the task the goddess set for him and return to his own time and place? Or will Nicolle be left alone on the Badari Warriors’ world, with no idea what happened to her mate? This is a 28,000 word novella.
Author’s Note: Content Warning: There are references to a previous, early pregnancy miscarriage.
RESISTING THE ALIEN COMMANDER (BRIDES OF THE BOHNARI) by Erin Hale
Horek – As Commander of the Bohnari guards, my career is the one thing I care about more than anything. Even more than the mating fever afflicting our males that causes us to slowly descend into madness unless we find mates. When the crown prince of Bohna negotiates with one of the Earth leaders for willing human brides, I have no interest in one. No matter the risk. Until one of the females triggers my mating fever to burn out of control, and all I desire is Quinn. Except another male wants her as well. I’ll have to convince her she’s my heart’s fire before the madness consumes me. Quinn – Born and raised in the bottom tier, I know the upper tier will do anything to keep us down. When the President announces that we’re the only women eligible for the Bohnari bridal lottery, I’m suspicious. Not that I have any interest in becoming a bride and leaving my mother—and only family left—behind. Except, somehow, my name is called, along with my best friend’s. Once we arrive on Bohna, I manage to catch the attention of one of the younger guards. Too bad it’s the Commander who sets my blood on fire. When I learn the truth about the mating fever that affects him, I’m not sure I can trust what Horek feels is real.
