The drinking, the dancing, and the partying...those things kept me distracted from all the things I didn’t want to face. I had lost my mother, my relationship with my father had seen better days, and I had absolutely no sense of purpose. It was hard to feel motivated about anything with all those things weighing me down.
I wanted to be a better woman, no doubt about it.
I just didn’t know how to go about it.
“Oh my God,” Lisandre snorted, discreetly pointing to somewhere behind me. “Can you believe that?”
I turned on my chair to see a small girl of five pestering a tall Valorni. He was hunched over a table in the corner, quietly drinking from a tall cup of coffee, and the young girl seemed fascinated by the alien’s size. She was peppering him with a thousand questions and, even though he was enormous in size, he was patiently answering her, a wide smile on his lips. The kid’s parents watched a table to the side, amused with the situation.
“What about it?” I asked Lisandre, and she just cocked one eyebrow up.
“Are you serious right now? Like, her parents are completely irresponsible, don’t you think? They’re letting a kid talk to one of those monsters. Like, if I had a kid, I would never let her alone with one of them, that much I can tell you.”
The other girls nodded their agreement, and I just looked at them not knowing what to say. “Please, don’t tell me you’re into that anti-alien stuff as well,” I finally breathed out. “Don’t you have anything more important to think about?”
“This is important,” Lisandre insisted. “My father tells me these things are taking our jobs, and God knows what else they might be planning to do. I mean, they handle a lot of security in the city. Doesn’t it make you feel like you’re a prisoner?”
“That’s so stupid,” I snapped. “Do you really think these guys want to hurt us? Just take a look at them. If they wanted to, they could’ve taken over all our cities already. And have you forgotten they were the ones stopping Kaster from turning into a pile of rubble during the war?” I shook my head then, more to myself than to them, and found myself going up to my feet. “You know what? I think I’m going home.”
They called my name as I walked out of the coffee shop, but I just ignored them. My headache was slowly returning, and I was in no mood to discuss the sociological implications of having aliens in our cities. If I wanted to be bored out of my mind, I could’ve stayed home with my father. Besides, why the hell were people so obsessed with the damn aliens? Sure, they looked scary as hell, but all they seemed to want was a regular life. That was a curious thought: these aliens wanted the exact same thing I did.
Maybe I had more in common with them than with my group of my friends.
Don’t Miss the Star Breed!
Given: Star Breed Book One
When a renegade thief and a genetically enhanced mercenary collide, space gets a whole lot hotter!
Thief Kara Shimsi has learned three lessons well - keep her head down, her fingers light, and her tithes to the syndicate paid on time.
But now a failed heist has earned her a death sentence - a one-way ticket to the toxic Waste outside the dome. Her only chance is a deal with the syndicate's most ruthless enforcer, a wolfish mountain of genetically-modified muscle named Davien.
The thought makes her body tingle with dread-or is it heat?
Mercenary Davien has one focus: do whatever is necessary to get the credits to get off this backwater mining colony and back into space. The last thing he wants is a smart-mouthed thief - even if she does have the clue he needs to hunt down whoever attacked the floating lab he and his created brothers called home.
Caring is a liability. Desire is a commodity. And love could get you killed.

Craved: Star Breed Book Five
Compassion. Kindness. Caring.
Not really part of my skill set. But for her, I might have to learn.
Geir
I run advance reconnaissance, collecting intel the Pack needs to execute our operations.
In and out, hard and fast.
And I don't need help.
So when a gorgeous woman saves my life, I'm knocked more than a bit off my game.
That's all it is.
Not the shy smile I hunger to coax from her lips, not the sweet body she keeps hidden. Not the mysteries that haunt her eyes.
And certainly not the bewitching scent that stirs me in ways no mission ever has.
I crave her like nothing I've found before.
Even if she might be the enemy, I'll make her mine.
Valrea
He can't save me.
The secrets of the Compound are too tangled. The nightmares in my blood can never be erased.

About the Author
I love old movies – To Catch a Thief, Notorious, All About Eve — and anything with Katherine Hepburn in it. Clever, elegant people doing clever, elegant things.
I’m a hopeless romantic.
And I love science fiction and the promise of space.
So it makes perfect sense to me to try to merge all of those loves into a new science fiction world, where dashing heroes and lovely ladies have adventures, get into trouble, and find their true love in the stars!
