Summary

The planet Zaffre is known for two things: blue sand deserts and the fact it's number one in robots mechanics and AI software development. Eastyn Ptolemy, a human worker from Earth, patrols Zaffre's main loading docks during his night shifts. Ever since coming to Zaffre with his sister Genna, his life has been easier, but also far too quiet.
To break up the monotony on one of his shifts, Eastyn listens to the local radio station where DJ Milo does all-night requests. After many late nights spent with Milo on the phone, Eastyn realizes he is actually Milo Struthers, former guitarist and backing vocalist of the band Lightning Years. Only now, after a bad accident, Milo has been reduced to a sophisticated AI that runs the radio station, struggling for a proper body and autonomy.
Available since: 02/01/2025.

    Six months after the life-altering events whose impact affected his higher soul, Gabriel is struggling not to lose everything he has managed to carve out for himself in Vienna with Florian and Solomon. 
     
    Then Gabriel sees dark omens: the nature spirit Augarten's nightmares are coming. Gabriel knows powerful magic is woven into his very existence, and whether he allows the nature spirit access to that magic may very well determine whether Gabriel and his lovers survive the nightmares. Augarten holds their fate in her hands, and the bargain she is insisting upon is a tough one: it may even cost Gabriel his life and happiness. 
     
    Is there any path forward that will allow Gabriel to hold onto his joyful life with two men? Or will he be required to pay the ultimate price and lose their treasured love?

    'A sweeping story of love, loss and finding the courage to be your true self' Phillipa Ashley 
    ***** 
    When Kerensa is sent by her father’s auction house to catalogue a neglected house overlooking the sea in Newlyn, Cornwall, it’s a welcome escape. Once the home of two female artists, Harbour House is a treasure trove, but one painting in particular catches Kerensa’s eye – a hypnotically sensual portrait of a beautiful young woman which dominates the hallway. 
    Captivated and intrigued, Kerensa finds herself piecing together the enigma of Bathsheba Kernow, a fiercely talented young artist who left St Ives almost a hundred years before, eager to escape a society that wouldn’t understand her, and her sweeping journey from the underbelly of Paris to the heady luxury of Venice, where a chance encounter would change her life for ever, drawing her into the most dangerous and forbidden of love affairs. 
    For Kerensa, still reeling with a grief of her own and facing an uncertain future in love, Harbour House will have secrets that will change her life too, and in ways she could never have imagined…

Someone like the gorgeous man he spots tending bar—a man who makes Evan weak in the knees and sends his heart soaring just by saying hello to him.

    What happens at the swimming hole, stays at the swimming hole… 
    When Adler arrives at Second Chance Ranch, I know he’s trouble. Adler gets under my skin like no one else and threatens my quiet, orderly, ranch foreman life. 
    In fact, my body’s reaction to his presence is something of a surprise. When I have the chance to explore the chemistry between us while secretly skinny dipping, I go for it because I know all too well that city slickers never stay long. 
    Except Adler comes back… 
    And I’m tasked with training him to be a ranch hand. No matter how tempting Adler’s easy smiles are, I can’t risk a repeat encounter for several reasons: 
    I’m his boss. 
    I hate gossip, especially when I’m the subject. 
    And doing my job right will always be my top priority. 
    Adler challenges all of that with chaos, rescue dogs, and an attraction that refuses to quit. As the weeks pass, our connection deepens into a secret fling. My rodeo days taught me how to handle a rough ride, but Adler has me falling fast. 
    Landing in the dirt is going to hurt, but I can’t bring myself to end things. Adler’s everything I never knew I wanted, but he won’t be content with staying in the shadows forever. Can I be the cowboy he needs and deserves before he’s gone for good? 
    Keep You Safe is book two in beloved author Annabeth Albert’s small-town Colorado cowboy romance series with Yellowstone meets Schitt’s Creek vibes. This return to the ranch features a stoic foreman and a younger city slicker turned ranch hand. Grumpy/sunshine, fish out of water, age gap with mature main characters, reluctant coworkers, sensual exploration, hurt/comfort, found family, and big feels with a standalone HEA guaranteed!
