If only her past would leave her alone. When she runs into an unscrupulous mercenary who ‘saved’ her from slavery, Gert wants nothing to do with him. No matter how sexy or funny he might be. Zeik knows that Gert is in trouble. Her new employer isn’t who she thinks. The little Terran is quiet and obedient – his opposite in every way – and it triggers his protective instincts. When she offers to help him on his mission, she both impresses him and takes him by surprise. But can he agree to the scheme when it risks her life? Despite her best efforts to ignore the irritatingly handsome alien, Gert finds herself falling for his jokes and his protective nature. Could there be more to an alien mercenary after all? Zeik is Book 4 in the Rescued by the Alien Mercenary sci-fi romance series. Featuring adventure, a sexy, possessive alien hero, and a strong heroine, sparks are bound to fly! This novella has no cheating and no cliffhangers, but a guaranteed HEA!

Indigenous Children’s Survivance in Public Schools examines the cultural, social, and political terrain of Indigenous education by providing accounts of Indigenous students and educators creatively navigating the colonial dynamics within public schools. Through a series of survivance stories, the book surveys a range of educational issues, including implementation of Native-themed curriculum, teachers’ attempts to support Native students in their classrooms, and efforts to claim physical and cultural space in a school district, among others. As a collective, these stories highlight the ways that colonization continues to shape Native students’ experiences in schools. By documenting the nuanced intelligence, courage, artfulness, and survivance of Native students, families, and educators, the book counters deficit framings of Indigenous students. The goal is also to develop educators’ anticolonial literacy so that teachers can counter colonialism and better support Indigenous students in public schools.

When Kenyan born Crimson Hail miraculously survives a train crash that plunges him into the depths of the sea, he did not expect to be washed up on a strange, undiscovered futuristic island he later finds out is called Valour. Valour is a place where most of its indigenous inhabitants have one of three superpowers: the ability to fly, teleport, or have super strength. Those without powers are forced into manual labour in terrible conditions which Crimson falls into. After the brutal death of a close friend by a Valourian Crimson, Marx, Ronan, and Nisbah swear to fight back and overthrow their oppressive leaders, free themselves from the island, and find their way back home. The odds are stacked against them, not only because of their few numbers but also their lack of superhuman abilities. However, unbeknownst to Crimson, he becomes the first-ever non-Valourian native to develop superpowers, not just one but all three. With fast-paced action, incredibly creative scenery, and a twist that will have you on the edge of your seat, Crimson Hail and the secrets of Valour is a feel-good, sci-fi action-adventure story that will leave you wanting more.

As an immortal mercenary and all-around badass, Axeviathon Saphyrius has spent the last two centuries in service to a fearsome dragon lord, while biding his time awaiting his fated female – the one woman he is destined to claim and love. He never expected to be cast into a nightmare fraught with shadow-walkers, sin-eaters, and lethal pagan enemies – he never expected his chosen mate to be up to her eyeballs in the same malevolent cult or to be used as an unwitting pawn in an epochs-old rivalry. So when his amulet heats up and her eyes turn sapphire blue, he knows he is in for a wild ride. This won’t be an ordinary claiming. Amber Carpenter’s life may as well have been cursed. From her rocky upbringing in the foster-care system to her terrifying abduction at age fifteen by a ruthless pack of thugs, she has learned to play the hand life deals her. And somewhere along the way, she has even made peace with her tragic fate. When a gorgeous, yet savage warrior strolls up to her teller line in King’s Castle Credit Union, Amber knows right away that something is wrong… The way he looks at her… The way he approaches her… The fact that he already knows her name. And his unnatural, hypnotic eyes—raven-black pupils surrounded by sapphire irises, a hidden fire blazing in their depths. Amber knows he’ll be back. When the savage demands of a dragyri male collide with the tragic misfortune of a human woman’s life, a race against time begins, and two very different worlds erupt into fire, passion, and devastation.
