Birds were her only passion... until she met him. Rin has dedicated her life to the study of birds. When the military uncovers a lost project that results in a new avian species, they hire Rin to investigate what they've created... and how to best use their newest assets. Rin wants more for her subjects than a life of risk and servitude, but keeping secrets from the military is a dangerous game... especially when playing alone. This cyborg thought he was better off on his own... then he found her. Infantry scout. Prisoner. Unwilling test subject. Axe has been many things in his life, but most of it he spent alone. Freedom hasn't changed that. He protects the colony from a distance-patrolling the wild places others avoid. He thought he had everything he needed until a chance encounter changes everything. Now he's got a psychic hawk in his head and a bright and cheerful scientist sneaking into his heart. She needs his protection. The psy-hawks need his help. And Axe is about to discover that a life of solitude isn't what he wants after all. **Publisher's note: This story was previously released as part of the Pets In Space 8 Anthology.

A new home and new challenges are just what she needs to kick-start her time of self-discovery. At least, that's what she thought... Haven isn't as peaceful as its name implies.

Two alien healers who cannot mend their broken hearts are about to meet their cure... Tariq and Sulat are Vardarian anrik, blood-bound brothers destined to share their lives, a family, and a mate. When a tragic accident claimed the life of their mahaya, grief shattered their lives and ended their hopes for the future. Joining the exodus to Haven seems like the best way to move forward and rebuild what remains of their family. Their new home is indeed a haven, but one under threat from outside forces and the pressures of traditions best left in the past. Three healers willing to risk their lives to protect their patients... but do they have the courage to risk their hearts?

Ce devait être le plus beau voyage de sa vie... et maintenant elle essaye juste de rester en vie. Rissa n'en revient pas de son coup de chance. Elle a gagné une croisière de rencontres tous frais payés sur un vaisseau luxueux. Ce n'est pas l'amour qu'elle cherche, mais quelques semaines à se faire dorloter et de confort cinq étoiles, tout en visitant d'autres planètes, semblaient un plan idéal... jusqu'à ce que tout dérape.

Atterrir en catastrophe sur une prison carcérale ne fait peut-être pas partie des vacances dont elle rêvait, mais il se pourrait bien que cela s'avère être le plus beau "pire" jour de sa vie. ** Attachez vos ceintures ! Ce roman d'amour et de science-fiction présente un extraterrestre à toison, crocs et cornes, avec une attitude très possessive lorsqu'il s'agit de la femme qu'il a décidé de s'approprier.
