Excerpt

Do not feel sorry for the werewolf, Tessa.  

But no matter how I reprimanded myself, I felt a twinge of sympathy go through me. 

What if Helen was right and Niko Savas hadn’t committed these murders? 

What if he was innocent? 

It’s not my job to figure that out, I reminded myself. Hell, it wasn’t even really my job to catch him. I’m just doing this so I can get enough money to make it until I can get a real job. 

Preferably one that didn’t involve hanging out in clubs that got firebombed or getting kidnapped in my own home by homicidal werewolves. 

Except this werewolf did not seem homicidal.  

If I had any sense at all, I would call the police now. 

After I handcuffed him. 

It was all I could do to keep from thwacking myself in the forehead.  

Handcuffs.  

I had handcuffs threaded with a silver chain in my pocket. I could have slapped them on his hand when he was showing me those claws, and this would have been done with. 

What the hell is wrong with me? 

I mentally measured the distance across the table. Would I be able to get the cuffs out, get them open, and slide them on Savas’s wrists—or even one wrist—before he could do serious damage to me? 

If Savas had been a regular human, maybe. But I’d seen those specials on the news programs where they showed videos of shapeshifters running. 

Those fuckers were fast.

Meet Tessa Fury: accidental bounty hunter of all things supernatural, dangerous, and outside the law.

Twelve years ago, the supernatural world revealed itself to the rest of us. Vampires, werewolves, fairies—all real.

Twelve hours ago, I accidentally took a job as a supernatural bounty hunter, tracking down the worst of the things that go bump in the night.

And twelve minutes ago, I’m pretty sure I died.

I had absolutely zero plans to become a monster hunter.

I got okey-doked into it. You know—those times when a friend is outlining a plan for the day and you’re just going along with it like an idiot, saying yes to everything…right up to the moment you realize you’ve just said “okey-doke” to going after a feral werewolf with nothing but a butcher knife and a Tootsie Pop in your pocket.

If I survive this werewolf hunt, I’m changing jobs.

Maybe.

It just pays so damn much…

If I catch the bad guys.

And assuming I live through the night.

If you can’t get enough of books by Patricia Briggs, Ilona Andrews, Kelly St. Claire, Annette Marie, Shannon Mayer, Leia Stone, Jaymin Eve, and Linsey Hall, then you’ll love this urban fantasy, paranormal mystery adventure series.

Hello, everyone!

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.

What Next?

I’m already planning out my next couple of projects—but I’d like to get your input on which one(s) I should set up as Kickstarters first! None of these will go live before the current Alien Bride Lottery Kickstarter is done, of course, but I’ll need to start gathering up the extras that I’ll be giving away as bonuses during the Kickstarter run.

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.

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.

EXCERPT

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?” 

“I didn’t say that. And stay out of my thoughts.”

Celebrate with Hot New Alien Romances & More

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:

1. 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!
2. 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.
3. Watch a movie about UFOs or aliens. There are lots of great movies about UFOs and aliens out there. You could watch one that is based on a true story, or one that is completely fictional. Some possible choices include Cowboys and Aliens, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, and The War of the Worlds.
4. Take a trip to a place where there have been UFO sightings. Some possible choices include Area 51 in Nevada and the Roswell UFO Museum in New Mexico.
5. And of course, my favorite: Read a book about UFOs or aliens!

While you’re at it, be sure to check out The Alien Bride Lottery Kickstarter here and preorder your copy of Alien Warrior Seduced here!

Evading the Alien Bride Lottery

A brand-new Khanavai Warrior Bride Games book!

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.

Available only on Kickstarter.
