Flip Miller was a man about the universe, surviving one harrowing escapade after another and seeking for the lucky break that would make his fortune. Finally he had found in in a scrap of a map to a lost mine on Venus. Only he was foolish enough to search it out in the steaming jungle of that mud covered planet. But it was true and unbelievable riches were soon to be his. Well, as soon as he could get a ride out of the mud island where his plane had broken down. The one thing he was never afraid of in all his adventures were women. Were there women on this planet that might just might not fall for his rugged looks and boundless self confidence. Of course not. Captain Vixen, the princess of Venus may just be a type of woman he hasn't met before and one worthy of his mettle. If he loses this battle of the sexes, then of course he will die. Will he teach even this fierce wild woman what if feels like to be a true woman in the arms of a strong man? Listen and find out.Show book
This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. An ethereal tale ... 'The Hands of Pahl' 'The Hands of Pahl' have literally been my hands, allowing me to express a story of this `timeless young man' and his epic journey. In the world of matter and time we live in, we are often judged by our hands and what they can or can't produce. But imagination is timeless. I sincerely hope that you, the reader, gain some strength and joy from these words. Forty years have travelled swiftly by since my first draft of Pahl and yet it seems nothing more than the flutter of a butterfly's wings. And in reality ... time has no meaning in the ethereal worlds. It is simply energy without hands.Show book
I hated the military…and now I’m an alien’s pet! I hated the Terran military. I didn’t volunteer, either. Like so many others, I was drafted as cannon fodder in the senseless Terran war against the Algonquans. Not like I had much of a future ahead of me, though, without a rich family to pave my way or even pay for me to have a wife. Now, my entire ship’s been captured. If what we’ve been told about the alien race is true, I’ll never be seen again. I hope they don’t eat me. Turns out the truth is far different than we were led to believe. The Algonquans aren’t vicious, insectoid monsters, either. We’re now their pampered pets…and they’re using us to help replenish their population to win the war. You know, maybe this isn’t the worst life after all. This standalone MMMM, sci-fi romance features humans as aliens' pets (and more), m-preg, a touch of power exchange, and…interesting alien tech. This book was previously published under my Tymber Dalton pen name. It has been revised and expanded for re-release.Show book
“They’re huge, easily half again the size of a normal human male—and, they’re bipedal as well as obviously intelligent,” Devin offered. “Or, they wouldn’t have gotten this far. They’re reptilian looking with green and brown coloring and wart-like bulges protruding from their skin. They appear to communicate with each other—although that’s not a big surprise.” He paused for a moment. “And, they seem to be mean sons of bitches. Did I miss anything?” Brian McCullough’s On the Edge of Now: Book V—Jagged Edge transports readers to a time and place where humans must forfeit their freedom, forever doomed to unspeakable slavery and personal atrocities. Immersed in a cruel, corrupt, conquered society, the Travelers find themselves face-to-face with the overlords of a massive, reptilian military whose sole purpose is to conquer the world. Armed with advanced Wave technology, the Lizards seek and destroy anything in their path—until they come face-to-face with Tag, Rose, Claire, and Devin. It’s only then things begin to change.Show book

A classified research facility has been sighted with the presence of illegal cargo that relates to what they found on their previous mission. The problem is the system is controlled by the Fredorian Defense Force, a group who dislikes Earthborn of any stripe. The facility is operated by the Dorostatic Initiatives Corporation, which is recovering from a genetic engineering scandal and hates any government intrusion, Earthborn or not. Getting to the facility is one challenge. Dealing with a new crew problem while doing it is another. To make matters worse, brutal, bug-like Rogundan mercenary slavers have been spotted in the system. Blake and crew will do all they can to investigate the facility while navigating both internal and external threats. If there’s one thing Earthborn can do well, it’s adapt, and Blake and crew will show everyone how it’s done.Show book
