  Tyler Collins has always been the object of my affection. I've spent years admiring him, fantasizing about him, but never once making a move. That is until I see him across the room, already a few beers in and drunkenly decide to press my lips to his. Now I'm trapped at a beautiful resort with the man I so desperately want to avoid, to celebrate the nuptials of our dear friends. 
   
   
   
  The fear of rejection is too strong for me to mention the kiss. That night is on constant replay in my mind. I often wonder how he would react if I could confess that to me, our kiss was not a drunken mistake. 
   
   
   
  Tyler 
   
   
   
  One unexpected kiss, and now all I can think about is her lips pressed to mine. I've managed to avoid attachments, keeping things casual and enjoying one day at a time. Yet, a timid blonde marches across a hazy bar and grabs hold of my hair, giving me the kiss that changes it all. Changes me. 
   
   
   
  She might want me to believe the kiss was forgettable, but we both know better. That moment with her wasn't nothing. It was everything. It was the turning point and the start of something I know without a doubt will be more than we both ever could have expected. 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  A Rare Recording of Navajo Code...

  Dan Akee was part of the Navajo code talker units of the US Marine Corps that relayed radio and phone messages in their native dialect during World War II operations.
   
  The method was fast and indecipherable to enemy eavesdroppers, as Navajo is an unwritten language of extreme complexity - with its syntax, tonal qualities, and various dialects - making it unintelligible to anyone without extensive exposure and training. It has no alphabet or symbols, and is spoken only on the Navajo lands of the American Southwest. By one estimate, at the time of World War II, the Navajo language was understood by fewer than 30 non-Navajos.
   
  Approximately 400 Navajo code talkers took part in every assault the US Marines conducted in the Pacific from 1942 to 1945. They served in all six Marine divisions, Marine Raider battalions, and Marine parachute units, transmitting messages by telephone and radio in their native language. The code was never broken by the Japanese, and its security has been credited with contributing significantly to the capture of Iwo Jima in 1945.
   
  The following are two recordings from code talker Dan Akee.

  On Alien Love Island, the days are hot, but the nights are scorching... 
  It's not every day I tie up an alien warrior king. It's because, in part, he put his hands down my pants to retrieve a top-secret package. Hey, where else was I going to put it? For some reason he's not telling me, he wants this mysterious package. My orders are to deliver it and not to him. 
  But when we're both kidnapped and dropped onto a deserted island, my plans for ringing his neck and then day-drinking shoot out the window. 
  Only the island's not so deserted. The alien king and I have just stumbled onto the set of the first season of Alien Love Island, an intergalactic reality TV dating show. 
  Big, sarcastic yay. 
  One of the many, many problems with this? We never agreed to appear on the show. The producer makes it clear that we have no choice though. 
  To stay alive, we play our parts. But when the cameras aren't rolling, the alien king and I must work together to find out what's really going on. 
  Is this mysterious package the reason we're here? What's the alien king hiding? Who invented sizzling-hot alien kings I can't take my mind--or my hands--off of anyway? 
  The answers just might change us both forever.
