Banished by his parents to the third planet in the Sol system, Prince Harht'ngh'chaali of the Second Grand Clan is completely fascinated by its inhabitants. Assuming the human name "Harry," he tries to pass for a human to survive, but being human is so much harder than Harry expected. Humans are so confusing. Adam Crawford isn't looking for love. Financially secure and good-looking, he's in a good place in his life. He doesn't mean to fall in love with the quirky guy working at the coffee shop near his office. Harry is ridiculous--and ridiculously endearing. He wears ugly shirts and flowers in his hair, and he has a kind word for everyone. Adam falls hard and fast.

Book Description
Living in a town full of shifters, witches, vampires, and other mystical creatures, she thinks she’s seen everything. She was wrong. Marian When I was offered the job as head librarian in a small town in Colorado, I was thrilled. (Yeah, yeah, I’m a librarian named Marian, cue the musical jokes.) Sure, I’m one of the only humans in this magical little part of the world, but the residents welcome me with open arms. At least I thought they did, before someone tried to play an April Fool’s joke on me. There’s no way the hot younger guy flirting with me is into a middle-aged woman like me. Oh, and the fake blue skin is taking the joke a little too far…but I can’t help but wish this was real. Also, why am I suddenly having prophetic dreams since this guy showed up? Edfollopxen (or Ed, to his new friends) When I left my home planet of Genervia in search of my fated mate, I had no idea I’d find one as perfect as the curvy little human they call Marian on the very first planet I visited. It may take a while to win her love, but I’m willing to put in the work. I’m reading about her culture, getting a job with the wolves, and making it my mission to keep her so satisfied that she forgets how different we really are. Can a grouchy librarian and a cheerfully naive alien really find love? Alien Feeling is a steamy midlife paranormal romantic comedy featuring a woman with burgeoning psychic skills who doesn’t believe in fated mates, a big blue alien who doesn’t believe in personal space, and a town full of nosy matchmakers determined to help them find their happily ever after. About the “Magical Midlife” series: Just outside the shifter town of Greysden sits Rosewater Manor, a place shrouded in magic. The Rosewater women and their friends all have special gifts, although sometimes they’re a bit glitchy. At least until they find true love… keywords: alien romance, paranormal romance, midlife romance, fated mate, rejected mate, instalove, love at first sight, psychic, witch, shifter, shape shifter, small town, later in life romance, seasoned romance, rom-com, romcom, romantic comedy

Book Description
The #1 New York Times best-selling author of Infected delivers medieval carnage as a pre-industrial society fights extinction at the hands of a massive infestation of Xenomorphs. Ataegina was an isolated world of medieval castles, varied cultures, and conquests, vibrant until the demons rose and spread relentless destruction. Swarms of lethal creatures with black husks, murderous claws, barbed tails and dreaded "tooth-tongues" raged through the lowlands, killing ninety percent of the planet's population. Terrified survivors fled to hidden mountain keeps where they eke out a meager existence. When a trio of young warriors discovers a new weapon, they see a chance to end this curse. To save humanity, the trio must fight their way to the tunnels of Black Smoke Mountain--the lair of the mythical Demon Mother. Alien: Phalanx TM & © 2019 Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation.

Book Description
The critically acclaimed author of Alien: The Cold Forge takes readers to a rogue colony where terror lurks in the tunnels of an abandoned Weyland-Yutani complex. “Shy” Hunt and the tech team from McAllen Integrations thought it was an easy job—set up environmental systems for the brand new Hasanova Data Solutions colony, built on the abandoned ruins of a complex known as “Charybdis.” There are just two problems: the colony belongs to the Iranian state, so diplomacy is strained at best, and the complex is located above a series of hidden caves. Charybdis has a darker history than any could imagine, and its depths harbor deadly secrets. Until their ship can be refueled, the McAllen team is trapped there. The deeper they dig, the more Shy is convinced there's no one they can believe. When a bizarre ship lands on a nearby island, one of the workers is attacked by a taloned creature, and trust evaporates between the Iranians and Americans. The McAllen integrations crew are imprisoned, accused as spies, but manage to send out a distress signal... to the Colonial Marines.

Book Description
"We sometimes feel disgusted by-even alienated from-our desires. Suppose I feel alienated from my persistent desire to smoke, and disgusted that the thought of dying while my children are still young isn't enough to extinguish that desire. I could talk to my friends about my predicament, confident that they would sympathize at least to some extent. If I were so inclined, I could also consult work from many distinct philosophical traditions, written in many different centuries, to learn what philosophers have thought was the best way to characterize someone in my condition; what they have thought someone in my condition ought to do; and what philosophical problems they thought could be illuminated by considering conditions like mine. I might learn that reflection on such cases could help in developing accounts of self-deception, wishful thinking, moral motivation, the nature of agency, and the boundaries of the authentic self. We also sometimes feel disgusted by-even alienated from-our experiences. More specifically, we sometimes feel alienated from a perceptual or sensory experience of ours because we are troubled by its evaluative shading. Many people, if you press them and they trust that you won't immediately turn and berate them, will acknowledge that they have experiences like the one I am about to confess. A woman walks by, and my visual perception of her includes the content fragility, and on reflection I realize that this content is positively valenced in my experience. And I don't just perceive her as fragile in the sense of floaty or graceful, but fragile in the sense of breakable, or erotically consumable. I am disgusted with myself because no one is breakable in that sense. How could I be such that a fellow human looks that way to me? Yet if I look again, my moment of anguished self-castigation doesn't shake the way she looks to me. She still looks fragile, and in a pleasing way. Such experiences-and alienation from them-are, I contend, disturbingly common. Yet if I were to try and read some philosophy to help me understand this predicament, as I might have done in the case of my alienated desire, I would find almost nothing. Philosophers in many different centuries, and in many different traditions, construe sensation and perception as passive. They talk about experiences in ways that would lead us to conclude that someone's feeling alienated from a particular experience, unlike her feeling alienated from a particular desire, is an odd neuroticism-not a phenomenon deserving of serious philosophical reflection. Within contemporary analytic philosophy, philosophers frequently argue for views of mind, self, and action on which many aspects of a human life can be understood as expressive of agency. And yet even in these approaches, we do not see experience treated in a way that would enable us to make sense of this common human response to it. We certainly don't see philosophers set it up, as a condition of adequacy for an account of experience, that it make room for the phenomenon of alienation from experience. (In contrast, a philosopher might treat the ability to account for akrasia as a condition of adequacy for accounts of belief and desire, or of practical reasoning generally.) And so of course no one goes on to ask what progress on other philosophical problems-like the nature of self-control; or the functions of ascriptions and avowals of experience; or the status of folk-psychology-might be made if we were starting from an account of experience that made room for alienation from particular experiences"--

The youngest prince of his clan, Seyn has been betrothed to the crown prince of another clan since birth. Everyone says he's so lucky to marry one of the most respected, powerful men on the planet, but Seyn knows better. He hates him with every fiber of his being. Ksar is a cold, uncaring, overbearing bastard who uses underhanded tactics to achieve his goals and who either ignores Seyn or criticizes everything about him. Seyn can't stand him, and he's willing to do anything to get out of the arranged marriage to a man he abhors. But the line between feverish hatred and passion can be very thin, and it turns out that freedom isn't as appealing as it once seemed. Is it messed up to miss a man you loathe? Is it sick to want his hands on you? Seyn knows it's insane. He knows he should stop going back. But knowing something and doing it are two different things.
