Research scientist Aly Percy has never been known for her looks, but she is passionate about saving wildlife. In fact, she'll do anything for her current project even if it means spending time alone with the sexy Cup Companion Arif al Najimi on his private yacht. A man who sets her nerves on edge, and makes her feel things she never has before. She doesn't know why he's interested in her, and doesn't trust his motives. Arif doesn't understand why the researcher is haunting his dreams. Maybe it's because she's beautiful and intelligent, and he loves her passion for her project. He also feels a need to protect her from the dangers of traveling alone to do her work. More than anything, he wants to show her how beautiful she is. They come from different worlds, and they have a difficult time trusting. The passion is explosive between them, but it may not be enough to bridge their worlds. Can the ugly duckling find true love with the Cup Companion?

But, then Maverick came, and showed her the way to her destiny, which led her to find the biggest secret of her life. He was nothing special he thought, but, he was her Royal Guard.

When an unknown man appears in Dunwall, leading the Whalers and seeming to possess powers once wielded by Daud, Emily and Corvo are plunged into a life-and-death adventure. Should they fail to stop this enemy, the result could be total destruction.

What you are looking for is not out there, it's in you... Stass had told her the story a thousand times. She was ten years old when he found her, lost and alone in the harsh wilderness of the Northern Cascades with no memory of who she was. For the past eight years, Amber has lived with him above his martial arts studio in Seattle, slowly losing hope that her family will ever come for her. Everything changes the day Stass is murdered.

The kicker: according to Raven, Amber is an alien princess exiled to Earth by a civil war that claimed the lives of her entire family. To regain her past and go home, she needs to find a relic hidden somewhere in the very mountains Stass claimed to have rescued her from. With the help of a former member of the Royal Guard and her distractingly attractive trainee, Amber and Raven race to find answers. But not everyone is who they claim to be, and a betrayal in a critical moment will put everything on the line. Can a girl without a past win the fight for her future?

Passion at 10,000 feet Hard missions and high altitudes, that's what Captain Mike Shafer, 10th Mountain Division, US Army, is all about. He never hesitates, not even when tasked with stopping a deadly virus from exploding in the Himalayas. At least, not until he finds out he's going in with a single partner—Lucy Merritt. A woman. Soft. Super-feminine. No military background, no combat training, armed with just a PhD in art history. Worst of all, she's gorgeous. Another word for 'deadly distraction.' Then Mike finds out that Lucy isn't a hindrance to the mission. She is the mission. He's just the muscle. Lucy Merritt has made a point of creating a life for herself that's safe, unadventurous. She's already paid her dues to the CIA, having lost both her CIA operative parents in Nhala, a small Himalayan kingdom, long ago. In her book, they've taken quite enough from her already. But they tell her that her country needs her. That she's the only one who can go into Nhala undercover, with the dour but undeniably sexy Captain Mike at her side, posing as her fiancé. It's a disaster waiting to happen. She's a strong, independent woman, and here she is, melting when a tough, sexy warrior smolders at her. She can't resist Mike's protective tenderness, and the blaze of attraction between them—though giving into it could cost her everything. Then all hell breaks loose in Nhala, and Mike and Lucy will need all their passion and power just to survive…because it's not just their own lives at stake.

The head of security for the royal family, I'm used to being in the shadows, but after eleven years I'm forced back into the spotlight. My family works to rebuild our country, while I'm pulled in a million different directions. But the only direction I want to look is to her: Lennox Briggs. She’s been a thorn in my side since she was brought in as the first woman on our security team. Getting involved with her would be a mistake. Lennix is more than qualified, but a distraction I can't afford. Too bad my heart—and other regions—aren’t listening. After so many years protecting the people I love, how do I choose between my heart and my duty? Because I definitely can’t have both.
