At the Mercy of Her Pleasure

She's addictive. He can't touch her. But what if he kissed her just once...
To free his enslaved brother from a cruel master, Senth, an all-party-fun-and-games thief, must take on the hardest assignment of his life: stealing from the Empress. If he doesn't, his brother's life is forfeit.
To make matters worse, Senth has no choice but to work with NarrAy, a by-the-book rebel captain whose addictive pheromones could jeopardize the mission and destroy his will. When the unthinkable happens and NarrAy professes her love for him, Senth must decide if what he feels is real.
Can he trust this woman? If he loves her back, can he still save his brother? Or will he end up at the mercy of her pleasure forever...

For Her Only

Kin ambassador Fawni Ruh visits the capitol planet of the empire and meets security expert, Khyff, a human. A death in her family forces Fawni to return home, but she can't bear to part with Khyff and takes him along. Her family demands she cast out the human, or abdicate her future rule.
When Fawni searches for an alternative, she stumbles upon Khyff's secret. The cover-up, if exposed, will betray her world to its enemies, and bare her family to open shame. Her duty is clear. She must shun this human. Yet how can she leave Khyff to suffer in the darkness that binds his heart?
To save his brother, Khyff must seduce and then betray an alien ambassador whose people devastated his family.
Hatred for the aliens burns within him, but unless he can learn to embrace the past, face the demons he swore he'd forget, and find a way to forgive, his brother will die.
How can he hope for a happy ever after, when his hidden truth is her people's hidden lie...

She permits herself no family and few friends. But when she meets Joe, she rethinks her rules.
The accidental death of Joe's parents reveals the truth about his parentage. Determined to uncover the truth, he seeks information about his birth mother, and hires Shohn.
As their unexpected friendship deepens into more, each mystery they solve reveals yet another hidden layer.
The truth they seek could immobilize interstellar commerce in the empire. To protect the Empire they both love, they must solve the riddle behind his elusive birth mother, and trust one another.
But how can they trust when the "truth" they've each been fed is a lie?

Surrender Love

Being dumped broke Luc's heart, but public humiliation crushed it. Online betting programs placed odds on how long it would take the wealthiest man in the Empire to find a new romance. He was betting on never.
As an alien working on a human world, Izzorah faced contempt and prejudice. Never mind that he was the drummer for an Empire-famous rock band, he was also undocumented, and if discovered, it guaranteed deportation to his homeworld, where he risked execution.
When Izzorah's band signs with Luc's company, the desire that flares between them is instant and irresistible. But resist Izzorah and Luc must, for to yield means becoming vulnerable, and sharing secrets far too painful to reveal.
They must focus on work and forget about love. Even when their hearts beg for surrender...

Forever Love

Izzorah has always been a Kin, part of a human-like race of fierce, rugged felines. Now he's a brand-new immortal too. When he learns the truth about his fiancé's immortality—and his own—the familiar world he knew vanishes. He must undergo a hunt designed by the immortal king. Fail and he's cast out, away from the man he loves. As if that's not bad enough, Luc is also the king's ex, and the king refuses to part with anything—or anyone—he once possessed.
Luc served the king with his whole heart, until the man destroyed an entire world. Allow this monster near his precious Izzorah? Not in a million lifetimes. But if they run, Luc must abandon the mortals he loves and protects. The king has summoned immortals from around the galaxy to hunt Luc's beloved. The only way out is through, so Luc must teach Izzorah every dirty trick he knows. Izzorah must win.
Fair? Never. But accept the challenge they must—and pass it— because for their love, even immortality won't be long enough...

Wulf

With his career threatened and his life at risk, Wulf must seek help from the one man he swore he would never trust again, Luc Saint-Cyr, a.k.a. the Harbinger. An enigmatic man whose legendary power makes him the most feared person in the empire. Trusting Luc was what got Wulf's father killed. So how can the man expect trust now? But to survive, it's all or nothing, and Luc is the best bet he's got...
For the Harbinger, saving Wulf is a simple matter of asserting his will. Luc's ties to the Thieves' Guild grant him access anywhere. He can protect Wulf without difficulty. Until Luc brings Wulf home for safekeeping, and discovers the real reason for the threats. Protecting Wulf has not only put his and Wulf's lives at risk, it's also risked the life of Luc's teenaged son.
This is beyond protection, now. To the Harbinger, this is personal...

Alitus

As a Better, an enhanced human, Alitus can touch no one -- his pheromones are addictive. He must touch no one. But how long can he deny his heart?
Ordered by the Empress to find out if the lover of a friend is having an affair, Alitus investigates. As Minister of Imperial Intelligence, Alitus has access to every camera and remote in the empire. Which is a problem, because Wulf's affair is with Alitus.
Isolated and under scrutiny, he keeps his affair with Wulf secret. They say cheaters never win and winners never cheat. But when you're addictive and no one may touch you, sometimes you have to break the rules.
Complicating matters, the empress reveals her immortality, and requires Alitus to prove his loyalty. Her test throws him straight into Wulf's arms, right in front of the empress and Wulf's lover. Hiding what he and Wulf are to each other has taken discipline and denial.
Now, it will take a miracle...

Jawk

All Jawk has to do is seduce Luc, the most powerful man in the empire. And then betray him. Easy mission. Until he discovers that Luc has a heart...
Jawk spies on the enigmatic Luc, known empire-wide as the Harbinger. People who cross "the Man" tend to disappear. Undercover as a waiter in Luc's favorite haunt, Jawk gets a break when Luc seeks to hire him for a one-night ménage with his current lover, Wulf.
Jawk agrees, and things go well until Wulf and Luc fight, and Jawk is dismissed. He must get back in the man's good graces.
When Luc seeks to make Wulf jealous by taking Jawk on a long trip, the means to gather intel is too good to pass up.
Meanwhile, a forbidden dalliance between Wulf and another Chosen tests the bounds of trust between the immortals and their humans. The illicit affair threatens to rupture the eons-old alliance forever, and subject every last mortal and immortal to risk...
Secrets. Risk. Possession. Heady whiskey, strip shows, and a shower in zero-gee.

After all, this is what he's always wanted. A family.
There's just one problem.
That brother holds him responsible for every bad thing that ever happened, and he can't wait to make Senth pay.
Senth might be invisible, but he can't hide from the truth...
