Cowboyby William Bahl

Before the End Game, people live their everyday lives, doing simple things and being human.
Cowboy isn’t like most people. As an elite hitman, his days are anything but routine. His work takes him all around the globe. His targets are influencers, CEOs, and people in powerful positions of authority.
As Cantor Biotech’s CEO, Carly Hennington oversees a behemoth corporation’s machinations. But that’s just her day job. Carly is a member of The Group, a secret organization bent on global domination.
The Group has tasked Carly with managing the development of a formula that, once unleashed, will prompt a total meltdown of civilization. There is a schedule. Members of The Group have secured refuge for themselves and those doing their bidding on the outside.
A sudden attack on The Group’s secret facility in Belgium puts all plans in upheaval, leaving the members scrambling for safety.
Chaos is racing toward them, and everyone else as nations fail in a global domino effect of pandemonium.
Outlaws, murderers, and strange mutants quickly assert a new hierarchy in the law-and-order vacuum.
Cowboy, unknowingly executing targeted individuals at The Group’s behest, receives a cryptic warning from his handler. With little time, he rushes to secure his own well-being.
Unaware of the full extent of his unique abilities, Cowboy begins to experience strange sensations he cannot explain as mutated berserkers spread across the country.
Facing a world overrun with the bizarre and terrible consequences of The Group’s misfortune, Cowboy, Carly, and others must navigate a new reality where death or worse lurks around every corner.

Sometimes a Lady Needs a Villain.

Welcome to book 3 in the bestselling series Always a Scot from USA Today Bestselling author Jade Lee.

A LADY IN TROUBLE

Iseabail Spalding is on the run, desperately searching for a man who can stand up to her uncle. She’s hiding in London, pretending to be an empty-headed debutante, but someone has discovered her secret. The villainous seducer Reuben Bates demands she bend to his will or be exposed.

A SCOUNDREL WITH AMBITION

Reuben means to marry into the aristocracy, and if that means leveraging Miss Spalding’s secrets to his advantage, well, that’s her problem. Until she surprises him. The clever beauty matches him scheme for scheme. Better yet, she sees his merit even though he is nothing but a gutter rat with big plans. Then she runs out of time, and he’s sworn to abandon her.

CAN A BLACKGUARD SAVE A BEAUTY?

Reuben must give up the future he’s always wanted to help the angel who’s caught his eye. It won’t work unless Iseabail trusts him completely, and trust is the one thing she will not do. But she can love, and he can adapt.

Together they’ll risk everything, including their lives, to face an entrenched evil in Scotland.

Master of the Dawnby Kathryn Le Veque

A flashy knight with a scandalous reputation and a much-pursued heiress find themselves tangled up in an unconventional love story.

But all is not as it seems.

Will hidden secrets destroy everything?

1195 A.D. – Sir Galen Burleson (from Guardian of Darkness) has a love ‘em and leave ‘em reputation. Enormous and powerful, he is the captain of the army at Hexham Castle. Galen is in control of his life and his future until his dying father, tired of his son’s roving ways, demands he marry. But Galen isn’t allowed a choice – his father already has a wealthy bride in mind: Lady Lorica de la Beauvriere, the sole heiress of the St. Nicholas Court Castle fortune.

Aside from thinking that his father is mad, Galen has no intention of pursuing a woman who, by all accounts, is much-pursued already. He doesn’t need, or want, the competition. St. Nicholas Court is a powerful castle with old Norman money but Galen would prefer to chase women of his own choosing. However, his father finally confesses his reasons for the St. Nicholas Court heiress choice – the Burleson wealth, once substantial old Saxon wealth, is gone. But the reason why it is gone shocks Galen to the bone.

Now, he has no choice but to pursue the wealthiest unmarried woman he knows – Lady Lorica.

Lorica de la Beauvriere isn’t an ordinary lady. Highly educated and highly trained in a variety of feminine and non-feminine pursuits, she’s the smartest person in the room when suitors come to call. Her wit is biting, her manner brusque and superior, and Galen walks into a deluge of resistance and insults right from the start.

But that only serves to intrigue him.

And with that, a very unconventional love story is born.

Join Galen and Lorica on an adventure of a lifetime, where all is not as it seems, where dark secrets can crush, but also where love can repair the damage and divide. When Galen is called to battle and a young life is cut short, it’s Lorica who finally understands what it is to love and be loved.

And Galen who decides that Lorica is the only woman for him.

(Note: this book is tied to Guardian of Darkness and all three de Reyne brothers make an appearance)

Stowaway Star Runnerby C.G. Harris

Who knew babysitting an alien would be so hard?

Ben and the crew have set course for an alien planet, but the inhabitants are far from what they expected. They have answers that could get their baby Viraquin home but Ben isn’t sure he’s willing to pay the price for the well guarded secret.

En route to the planet, they receive a distress call from a crippled ship and are bound by law to help. The life support system onboard is failing and the crew is dying. Ben and Lois are their last hope. The power couplings needed to ensure their survival are easy enough to get, they just have to be plundered from another ship. A perfect way for Ben and his crew to break into the space pirate business. Too bad they’ve targeted one of the most ruthless aliens in the galaxy as their mark.

It’s a race against time to escape destruction, save the crippled ship and learn the secret that can safely deliver the baby Viraquin home.
