Dylan was more than just my best friend, my childhood sweetheart, my lover. He was my soul mate. We were carved from the same whole—destined to be together forever. Until he changed. And I believed I was no longer good enough. Until he shattered me so completely, it felt like I ceased to exist. I’d never experienced such heart-crushing pain. Until he leveled me a second time, and I truly wanted to die.

Apparently, there is a high demand for entertainment across the galaxies, and humans are rare. I would think that's a good thing, but it's not.

Brandon Cannon. A rising hockey star with a future he might not want. My best friend since childhood—the guy I could always count on. He could rely on me too—the girl he’ll forever see as a tomboy. Which is why he asked me to be his wingman to get the girl he wanted.

If I could use my hacking expertise to fly through the academy’s courses I would, but that doesn’t work in hand-to-hand combat. And this guy? He’s determined to turn me into a soldier. Except I’m more suited to being a nerd than a killer. I’m not here to learn those skills, only enhance my knowledge of alien technology, and it doesn’t include the Lokarian anatomy.

With a devilish smirk and wicked blue eyes, Austin steps back into my life to be my plus-one for a summer filled with weddings and events. Should be fun and effortless, right? Then why the need for rules? And why do I crave his touch at the small of my back and wish for his kiss on a moonlit beach?

Life for a Greek God isn’t as heavenly as one might think. Bored and frustrated, Ares defies his father’s orders and escapes to Earth, where he plans on meeting a few ladies and having a generally good time.

Because, his sister’s plans involve a different sort of excitement than Ares had in mind. Now, he’s in the fight of his life, desperate to save the entire planet. He can't do it alone.

He's a defenseman on the academy’s hockey team–a well-known player on and off the ice. It’s a reputation he wears proudly…flaunts, even. The only one he has to look out for is himself. No one expects anything else.
