Over the weekend, we reached our second stretch goal! That means everyone who backs the campaign will be getting pirate- and witch-themed stickers.
And our next stretch goal is the additional villain origin story, featuring the vampire Thomas Le Baron. We’ll share our cover for that with you soon.
Bonus Books
Remember, if you pledge before the end of the day today, you will get A History of the Pyrates and The Witches’ Dream Book and Fortune Teller--plus any other bonus books we offer between now and the end of the campaign!

First of all: Thank you so much for supporting The Alien Bride Lottery Kickstarter! I’m absolutely delighted to let you know that we have hit the fourth stretch goal!
Stretch Goal #4: Unlocked
I have commissioned a second brand-new Alien Bride Lottery artwork—check it out!
Surprise Bonus: Unlocked!
For this week’s surprise bonus, I’ve added two different printable bookplates. I’ve designed them to fit on a standard Avery template and will include instructions when I send the files.
I’ll also be adding new stretch goals over the next week or two, so be sure to keep an eye out for all the fun bonuses that are headed your way.
Right now, I’ve got six possible series ideas. Five of these are connected to new series: Alien Guardians, Alien War Brides, Abracadabra Apocalypse, Shadow Chronicles, or Borrowed Wings. OR I could use Kickstarter to finish out my Star Mate Interstellar Shifters series. You can see some of the covers from the projects below, and I’d love it if you took the quiz to let me know which one I should start with!
Again, thank you SO MUCH for your support and encouragement! As the campaign continues, I’ll continue to share more surprise bonuses to celebrate and share with you, so be sure to spread the word.
And I know I’ve asked this in every update, but now that I’ll be adding some additional stretch goals, I’d love to know: what are your favorite kinds of bonuses to receive when backing a publishing Kickstarter campaign?
If they can stop arguing over every decision, they might prevail.
He’s the leader of his clan, accustomed to being followed without question.
She’s the top salesperson in her company, used to negotiating every transaction.
Welcome to the Galactic Gladiator Games, where the toughest aliens in the galaxy fight for the most prestigious titles. But these games come with a twist: every alien warrior is mentally and emotionally bound to a potential Earth mate, forced to work with her to overcome their enemies–and sometimes each other.
Fans of Ruby Dixon, Evangeline Anderson, and Grace Goodwin will adore these hot alpha aliens and their sassy human mates.
I spent my entire professional life dealing with overbearing men who thought they were smarter than me, better than I was at the same job that we both did. I wasn’t about to let this one get the better of me—even if he was not exactly a man. Not a human one, anyway.
“Do you have anything in that case of yours that might help?” He gestured at my pharmaceuticals samples case.
Unfortunately, mostly what I had in there were weight-loss medications. I doubted either of us would be needing those. I suspected we would be lucky to get enough food to survive, much less eat so much that we’d need diet pills.
However, I also kept a selection of other types of medications, as well, just in case the doctors I visited wanted them.
“Nothing that will help deal with my shoe issue,” I finally said aloud. “But I do have some other things—painkillers, antibiotics, probiotics, even a few opioids and some massive anti-inflammatories.”
The alien frowned at me, clearly sorting through my words—and probably my thoughts, as well.
“I do not need to lose weight,” he finally said, glancing down at his ripped abs and trying to pinch any fat on his side.
No, no he didn’t. He might be an overbearing son of a bitch, but he was definitely fit.
He cocked an eyebrow at me. “You like my form, do you?”
Hello! Since my last update, we have continued blasting through all my expectations for The Alien Bride Lottery Kickstarter campaign. I’m so excited about this project and will continue adding more bonuses as we go!
First of all, I’m adding a new printable bookmark for everyone featuring the Evading the Alien Bride Lottery cover art. I’m also ordering a giant pile of the new bookmarks, so if you’d like a signed bookmark mailed to you, they’re available as add-ons exclusively in this Kickstarter campaign!
In addition, we unlocked the next stretch goal today, so every single backer will be getting another fun Alien Bride Lottery bonus scene in addition to the Evading the Alien Bride Lottery ebook.
Third, if you’re one of the first 50 backers for this campaign, you’ll get an “I Love Alien Romance” pin.
Thank you SO MUCH for your support and encouragement! As the campaign continues, I’ll be adding more surprise bonuses to celebrate and share with you, so be sure to spread the word.
While I continue to work on getting everything ready to send to you, I’d love to know: What else would you be interested in seeing as a bonus on this (or any) campaign? (My decision to add a signed bookmark option came directly from a suggestion–I’m listening to what you’d like to see.)
Today is World UFO Day–time to celebrate all things UFO!
I’m spending my day reading hot new alien romances. How about you? Need some ideas? Check these out:
Have a UFO-themed party. Decorate your house with UFO or alien-themed decorations, and serve snacks that are either UFO or alien-themed as well. You could have a UFO cake, cookies that look like aliens, or anything else you can think of. Be sure to have lots of fun games to play, too!
Make a model of a UFO. There are lots of different ways to make a model of a UFO. You could use a balloon, a styrofoam ball, or even a simple paper plate. You could also use different materials to decorate your UFO, such as paint, stickers, or glitter.
Since my last update, we have continued building on our original success, and The Alien Bride Lottery Kickstarter has hit the second stretch goal.
So once again, I’ve decided to celebrate with two bonuses!
As I promised, I will now send a vinyl alien sticker to everyone who backs the campaign.
Second, I’ll be including a printable alien-themed coloring page for every backer.
Thank you SO MUCH for your support and encouragement! As the campaign continues, I’ll be adding more surprise bonuses to celebrate and share with you, so be sure to spread the word.
While I continue to work on getting everything ready to send to you, I’d love to know: what are your favorite kinds of bonuses to receive when backing a publishing Kickstarter campaign?
I meant for him to steal me away. I never intended to allow him to steal my heart.
When the Alien Bride Lottery revised its rules to allow human women who wanted to marry aliens, it was supposed to change everything—no more unwilling brides, only eager participants.
That was the theory, anyway.
But when my best work frenemy signs me up for the Lottery without my knowledge and my name is actually drawn, no one cares that it wasn’t my choice—not Earth officials, and certainly not Vos Klavoii, the Games Director who’s determined to make sure his people survive.
Besides, Klavoii believes a surprise contestant now and then will improve his show’s ratings, and that’s what he truly cares about.
So I do the only thing I can think of: bribe a hot Khanavaii pilot to sneak me off Station 21.
Now I’m in a race for my freedom—but I’m beginning to think that gorgeous alien might be the biggest threat to my independence yet.
Fans of Ruby Dixon, Grace Goodwin, and Laurann Dohner will love this steamy new series featuring gorgeous, bright alien heroes and the sassy human women they choose as mates!
Every book in the Khanavai Warrior Bride Games series is a standalone romance and part of an interconnected series. Join these brides as they find a whole new world of happily ever afters.
Hello! Since my last update, we have absolutely smashed all my expectations. The Alien Bride Lottery Kickstarter was awarded the coveted “Project We Love” by the Kickstarter staff and we have hit the first stretch goal!
So I am celebrating with not one, but TWO bonuses!
First of all, as promised, I have created a brand-new digital sticker for everyone who backs the campaign.
Second, to celebrate having been named as a Project We Love, I have put together an ebook collection of early sci-fi stories written by women during the “Golden Age of Science Fiction.” This ebook will also go out to all backers.
Thank you SO MUCH for your support and encouragement! As the campaign continues, I’ll be adding more surprise bonuses to celebrate and share with you, so be sure to spread the word.
While I continue to work on getting everything ready to send to you, I’d love to know: What would you be interested in seeing as a bonus on this (or any) campaign?
