  Kiran Grace and Andrelis Rossen meet as cadets at the Officer Training Academy of the Union of Independent Worlds and, despite the rivalries and suspicion between their home planets, Akna and Parabellum, they can't deny the attraction they feel. Kiran's competence and flair impresses Andrelis and challenges his assumptions about Kiran's people. For his part Kiran is attracted to the martial society Andrelis comes from, but not their stiff-necked attitude and cultural conservatism. After they graduate and go back to serve their home planets, they know they will probably never see each other again. They can only hold on to the happy memories of that intense academy affair.
  But several years later, both are serving as officers aboard starships which are the first to reach the scene of a devastating explosion at a remote Akna mining colony. The two crews work together for days to help the victims of the disaster, and the connection between Kiran and Andrelis is rekindled. Both confess they've never been able to get the other out of their minds.
  But when evidence comes to light implicating Parabellum in sabotage, the two worlds go to war, and Kiran and Andrelis are torn apart again. Only after years of war will there be a chance for them to reunite to end the conflict ... if they can get past a betrayal that's left a bitter rift between them.

  If you've ever had someone try to arrange a marriage for you … 
   
  If you have so many cousins you can't remember all their names … 
   
  If your parents only show love through food and unsolicited advice … 
   
  If your 'roommate' has been around for five years and your family still think it's just a great friendship … 
   
  Then this book is for you. 
   
  And if you've never experienced any of this? Well, aren't you just a little curious? 
   
   
  Meet Daniel Nour: Egyptian and Australian; loud and painfully awkward; conservative and very confused (especially about other boys). He's never quite pulled off normal, but 'not-normal' is where the best stories are. Now he's made his peace with that and is ready to share his wisdom. Told as a series of snapshots from Daniel's life – from 'How to Be Born' to 'How to Die' and everything in between – this is a sharply funny tale of culture, family and trying, but not always managing, to come of age. 
   
   
  At turns wildly absurd, sharply insightful and disarmingly heartfelt, How to Dodge Flying Sandals and Other Advice for Life is a fresh take on growing up in Australia.

  “Some men command obedience. He taught me to crave it.” 
  Fresh out of law school and desperate to bury the trauma that nearly broke him, Samuel’s only goal is simple: keep his head down and survive. But that becomes impossible when he’s placed under Gael Wise, the firm’s most feared senior partner whose reputation alone is enough to break seasoned attorneys. 
  Gael picks up on Samuel’s tells instantly. The too-fast apologies. The rigid posture. The instinctive compliance no one else has ever questioned. And soon, what should have been a professional hierarchy shifts into a volatile, magnetic pull that exposes every defense Samuel has left. 
  What starts as curiosity becomes something darker. 
  Desire turns razor-sharp. 
  And Gael’s interest threatens to pull Samuel into a world he isn’t sure he can survive—or walk away from. 
  With old wounds rising fast and lines blurring beyond recognition, both men must face a truth neither expected: 
  Some obsessions don’t stay hidden… and some connections can break you long before they save you. 
  A dark, age-gap, BDSM-charged MM romance — The Associate is the first book in The Crimson Knot series.

  Some treasures are meant to be uncorked. 
  Auction director Austin Gillespie has one chance to save his career: authenticate the legendary “Lee bottles”—a cache of priceless vintage Madeira rumored to be hidden in the cellar of the decaying Georgia mansion known as Ballineen. 
  What he doesn’t expect to find is Jeff Brady. 
  Jeff is a sharp-eyed, stubbornly private PI with his own reasons for prowling Ballineen’s shadowy halls. One intoxicating night between them turns professional curiosity into something far more dangerous. Unfortunately, they want different things. Jeff doesn’t believe in love at first sight—and he certainly doesn’t believe in coming out of the closet. 
  When fraud, deception, and a suspicious death bubble to the surface, Austin discovers that not everything buried in Ballineen’s cellar is what it seems. And trusting Jeff might be the biggest gamble of all. 
  Because in Georgia, secrets age slowly… 
   and love can be as volatile as vintage wine.
