Doom (Xian Warriors Book 1)

By Regine Abel / Genre: Military, Romance

Doom (Xian Warriors Book 1)

The Battle for Earth has begun.

Victoria’s dreams of a cozy life as a small-town doctor come crashing down when the monstrous Kryptids make first contact. The alien invaders have only one goal: to turn Earth into a breeding ground. As she fights to protect her patients in their makeshift hospital, an even more fearsome alien and his beast enter the fray. She should be terrified of the male ominously named Doom. But she’s mesmerized.

As a genetically engineered war machine, Doom lives for a single purpose: eradicating the Kryptids. Coming to Earth with his brothers to save the humans should be a straightforward matter. But years of bloody battles throughout the galaxy have not prepared him for the fiery Victoria. Enchanted by the courage of that wisp of a woman, Doom offers her his protection and that of his fearless war beast, Stran, as she attempts to rescue other wounded humans. After disaster strikes their homeworld, the Xian Warriors now also face extinction.

Will the Kryptids finally defeat their only real threat, or will the delicate human that has stolen both of Doom’s hearts also be the Warriors’ seed of hope?

BEAST: Lords of Carnage MC, Book 6

By Daphne Loveling / Genre: New Adult & College, Romance

BEAST: Lords of Carnage MC, Book 6

He’s huge. Dangerous. And angry. And I can never love him again.

BROOKE

I left my hometown for a reason.
Coming back was never part of the plan.
But the job I came here to do is more important than my tortured past — and everything I left behind to escape it.
Now I’m a federal agent, working a case deeply rooted in the community,
And his club is in the middle of an investigation I’m about to crack wide open.

We almost happened when I was younger.
I was vulnerable.
Innocent.
Until it all got taken away from me.
Since then, I’ve learned how to protect myself. How to size up danger and neutralize the threat.
But Beast is an alpha male who won’t take no for an answer. And my heart isn’t listening to my head.

I don’t want to fall for him again. I can’t get hurt again.
But the harder I fight this attraction, the harder it becomes to resist.

BEAST

She left me and took what was left of my damn heart with her.
Seeing Brooke again is something I swore I’d never do.
But when she shows back up in our hometown, I can’t f*cking resist.
I fell in love with her for a reason.
And this time, she’s not f*cking running away from me.

But Brooke is putting things in danger.
She’s uncovering sh*t that’s hidden for a reason.
My club, Lords of Carnage MC, could explode if she keeps f*cking digging.

My d*ck wants her but my mind is stubborn, forcing me to keep my distance.
I knew she’d get under my skin again.
I knew I wouldn’t be able to resist after the first taste.
I knew once my hands touched her f*cking skin I’d turn into the Beast she’s so afraid of.

Except I’ve never followed any man’s rules.
Not even my own.
Brooke is my f*cking property.
My responsiblity.
My damn woman.
And I will do any-f*cking-thing to keep her safe.

No last names. No life stories. Those were the rules.

Once upon a time a cocky, copper-haired tourist sauntered into Zara’s bar. And even though she knew better, Zara indulged in a cure for the small-town blues. It was supposed to be an uncomplicated fling—a few sizzling weeks before he went back to his life, and she moved on.

Until an accidental pregnancy changed her life.

Two years later, she’s made peace with the notion that Dave From Brooklyn will never be found. Until one summer day when he walks into her coffee shop, leveling her with the same hot smile that always renders her defenseless.

Hockey star Dave Beringer has never forgotten the intense month he spent with prickly Zara. Their nights together were the first true intimacy he’d ever experienced. But the discovery of his child is the shock of a lifetime, and his ugly past puts relationships and family out of reach.

Or does it? Vermont’s countryside has a way of nurturing even tortured souls. The fields and the orchards—and hard won love—are Bountiful.

The doctor? Well, he’s in on this sham. Isn’t he?

Except his gaze is so steady. His voice is so warm.

And maybe I’m not all alone.
