Summary

Smuggler's Rebellion: Dawn of Defiance

Where stars stretch endless, freedom calls to the bold…

Jake Jones wants nothing more than to keep his battered freighter Lone Wolf flying and stay one step ahead of his creditors. No complications, no commitments—just the cold comfort of deep space and whatever smuggling job pays the bills.

But when a desperate princess and her defiant soccer-playing robot crash into his carefully constructed life, Jake finds himself caught in the dangerous slipstream between powerful empires. Princess Adara has fled the oppressive Ethnarch Kingdom with her soccer robot Number 34, both targeted by ruthless pursuers determined to drag them back to face execution. Reluctantly agreeing to transport them to the Women's Freedom Alliance, Jake navigates a treacherous course through asteroid fields and military blockades to reach the rebellion led by his former academy friend Ella Kuhn.

As they journey across the cosmic frontier aboard the Lone Wolf, their mission transforms when they uncover evidence of a devastating conspiracy that could ignite a galactic war. The unlikely crew forges bonds deeper than the void itself. The ship's AI co-pilot INCA offers wisdom beyond her programming, while Number 34 proves her worth with both soccer balls and courage. Together, they must outmaneuver Andrasian counterintelligence agents, brutal bounty hunters, and Adara's ambitious brother who will stop at nothing to recapture her.

For Jake, what begins as just another job transforms into something far more meaningful. As the lines blur between smuggler and revolutionary, he must confront the question that has haunted him since his academy days: what is he truly willing to fight for?

Smuggler's Rebellion: Dawn of Defiance is the exhilarating first installment in the Wild Frontier Chronicles, perfect for fans of The Mandalorian, Firefly, and The Expanse. This gripping space adventure blends high-stakes action with heart, humor, and a profound exploration of freedom's true cost.

Alpha Nicholas - Marked As Your...

Becky J

"The first night I saw you I fought every emotion, every instinct and I was a fool for doing it. The moment I laid eyes on you I should have claimed you, thrown you over my shoulder and brought you up to our room to mate and mark you. You should already be wearing my mark and officially be known as the Luna of this pack but I didn't do any of that. Instead, I walked away like a fucking idiot and worst of all I hurt you when I had no right to. Every day I wish I could go back to that day and change how I reacted but I can't, and so now I have to pay for my behaviour and that means waiting until you are ready to accept me as your mate and my Luna, until you are ready to wear my mark."

Brutal Desires - Enemies to...

Drew J Kyle

A star quarterback with a legacy to uphold. A fiery activist with a past to avenge. The line between love and hate is about to snap.

Caelen "Cael" Holt has spent his life a pawn in his family’s game, a golden boy with a secret. He's a star quarterback with a cold exterior, and the only thing he craves is to escape. But his carefully constructed world is shattered when a campus protest pits him against the one person who sees right through his carefully crafted mask: Rhys Thorne.

Rhys Thorne is driven by a need for justice, fueled by a deep-seated anger at the company that ruined his family. He sees Cael as the physical embodiment of the corruption he despises. So when fate forces them into the same dorm room, their rivalry explodes into a war of words, turning their shared space into a tense battlefield.

But in the quiet hours after the shouting, something else begins to simmer beneath the surface—a raw, undeniable attraction that defies logic. As their feud becomes a public spectacle, Rhys and Cael are forced to choose between the roles they’ve always played and a partnership that could change everything.

Step into the visceral, high-stakes world of Brutal Desires, a story where genuine connection can break down the most deeply ingrained biases. Told in a dual first-person point of view, you'll feel the sting of their witty insults, the heat of their rising tension, and the raw, vulnerable power of their love. For fans of enemies-to-lovers romance who crave a story with a powerful political backdrop, this book is for you.

Will their brutal pasts be their undoing, or will they finally find a future worth fighting for? Find out in Brutal Desires.

The Alpha Who Saved Me

Stacy Rush

They came in and wiped out my pack, leaving me an orphan at the age of fifteen, but then Alpha Declan came in and saved me, bringing me into his own pack. I've been living with the Storm River pack for three years now, training and learning how to fight, so when the time comes, I can kill the Alpha that took my family and pack away from me.But what do you do when you start to fall for the one who saved you to begin with? The one that took you under his wing when you had nothing left? The one who kissed you first, and made you feel things that you didn't feel before? I shouldn't be with him; he isn't my mate. I've yet to scent my mate, but Declan is too delicious to pass up. He's already saved me once, but can he save me from falling for him when I know my Goddess-given mate is out there somewhere?
 
I feel us moving and then I’m being placed on the hood of his Tesla. This puts me so my core is up against his hardness, and oh my Goddess, he feels monstrous! It’s a good thing that I’m not his mate, because I don’t think I’d be able to take it. It doesn’t stop me from rubbing against it, though, as tingles begin to form, and I moan.“That’s it, sweetheart, rub yourself against me and come for me. I want to see what you look like when you fall apart in my arms.” His command washes over me and I come instantly.
