Commanders Log, DS9: Star Date 46379.1: Bajor below. The cosmos above. Bloopers Everywhere! How long is the wormhole? In "Emissary," it is 70,000 light years.

Pages : 3010
Book Description
Wolves and cougars and dragons--oh my! There's more to love than meets the eye with these eight hunky heroes of the night. Count on these shapeshifters to know just how to break out of the mold--in bed and out of it. The Cougar's Pawn: When alpha were-cougar Mason Foye sweeps up Ellery Colvard at a campsite, the last thing he expects is a woman who knows all about shifters. She’s a scary witch herself who isn't convinced fated mates exist. If Mason can't persuade her they're destined for a life of excitement together, he's doomed to spend the rest of his days in his cougar form. A Certain Kind of Magic: When NYPD police detective Morgan Reilly discovers a lamp and frees the djinn, she thinks she's hallucinating the merman he conjures, thanks to her recent head injury. Exiled years ago, Mere needs her help to rescue a stolen dragon's hoard, but first he'll have to convince the gorgeous Morgan that he's very real. Secrets: When homeless cats start vanishing into thin air at Michelle Slade's rescue organization, Cats Alive, she's determined to get to the bottom of this mystery. Casey Mitchell, a secret were-lynx drawn to Michelle, helps investigate the odd circumstances and uncovers a diabolic design on her life. Will these two lonely souls find true love...or lose everything? Creatures of the Moon: After being attacked in the wild, Lydia Davis starts to change in a way that only journalist Ryan Williams can understand. Ryan needs to help Lydia contain her budding urges through the first cycle of the full moon or the curse will consume her soul. But how can he help her without revealing his own secret? Love's Prey: After four years of mental rehab, Isabelle Tunskill returns to the lodge where a wolf attack mangled her arm, now ready to confront her demons. But she attracts the shifters' alpha instead. Only Curtis Keene, the lodge's owner, can save her, but it will mean sacrificing his own standing in the pack. The Nymph's Labyrinth: Shapeshifting nymph Ariadne Papadakis must keep the truth of the nymphs' existence far out of reach from American archeologist Beau Morris. But will the task force her to sacrifice her own happiness? Secrets of the Sky: Sparrow Reed might look like an angel, but she's actually a witch who can change into a songbird. When her best friend's problems drop Sparrow in an underworld fraught with threats, Rowen Aerion of the Knights of the Fog has his hands full trying to keep her alive--and his love may be her biggest danger of all. Dragon Heart: In her haste to establish her own boundaries, leopardess Shay Barclay may have entrusted her heart to the wrong man--former Navy SEAL Drake O'Connor, a dragon shifter too dangerous to resist. Drake swore to protect his buddy's daughter to the death, so when his explosive chemistry with Shay finally boils over and they end up in bed, her family's political enemies are the least of their problems.

Book Description
The sons of the fallen angel Gulielmus thought they were just taking out some supernatural trash in Eastern North Carolina. A year later, the effects of their brawl reverberate half a country away in New Mexico. Fortunately, the trouble surfaces in the best possible place: on the ranch of one of Maria’s oldest shapeshifter families. THE COUGAR’S PAWN Cougar shifter Mason Foye’s father died, leaving him the heir apparent of the alpha position of a group of mutinous cats. Now the absentee goddess who originated the species is sending him on an ill-timed mate hunt. And for once, her message is clear: convince stranger Ellery Colvard to become his mate, or else. THE COUGAR’S TRADE Hank Foye can’t find the logic in the goddess La Bella Dama pairing a shapeshifter group’s second-in-command with a meek and quiet human nurse. Given the chaos at home on the ranch and inside the Cougar group, Miles Bennet is a liability. He may have escaped being cursed, but he still has to get his house and heart in order. And Miles isn’t going to make it easy for him. THE COUGAR’S BARGAIN Hannah Welch doomed cougar shifter Sean Foye to spend the rest of his life in his animal form when she refused to accept him as a mate. To make peace with her new community, she bargains with La Bella Dama to free Sean from his furry affliction. The price? Finding him a more suitable mate. But now Hannah’s not so sure she should give him up. THE COUGAR’S WISH A desperate entity trapped in a hellmouth pleads for cougar shifter Belle Foye’s help. Former soldier Steven Welch’s job is to keep her away from the hellmouth by any means necessary. It’s just his luck that the bold and reckless alpha’s sister has taken a shine to him…and that his own secret supernatural situation could compromise everything they’re working for.

Book Description
William Riker, former first officer of the USS Enterprise in Star Trek: The Next Generation, takes command of the new USS Titan in this white-knuckled adventure perfect for longtime and new Star Trek fans. After almost a decade of strife against foes such as the Borg, the Cardassians, the Klingons, and the Dominion, the United Federation of Planets is at the dawn of a new era. Starfleet is renewing its mission of peaceful exploration, diplomacy, and the expansion of knowledge. Among the starships spearheading that endeavor is the USS Titan, commanded by Captain William T. Riker and manned by the most biologically varied and culturally diverse crew in Starfleet history. But their mission does not begin according to plan. In the wake of Star Trek: Nemesis, Praetor Shinzon, slayer of the Romulan Senate, is dead. The power vacuum created by his demise has put the Romulan Star Empire, longtime adversary of the Federation, at the brink of civil war. Competing factions now vie for control of their fragmenting civilization, and if the empire should fall, that entire area of the galaxy may destabilize. To restore order to the region, Titan’s long-anticipated mission of exploration is delayed as Starfleet assigns Riker to set up power-sharing talks among the Romulan factions. But even as the first tentative steps are taken toward building a new Romulus, the remnants of the Tal Shiar, the dreaded Romulan intelligence service, are regrouping behind the scenes for a power play of their own. With no other help available, Riker and the Titan crew become the last hope to prevent the quadrant from falling into chaos.

Book Description
Classic fairy tales get an oh-so-modern update in this fun, value-priced collection. Waiting for your prince to come? Forget it! Today’s heroines are plunging into love feet first—nary a glass slipper in sight. With nine delightful stories, this bundle offers contemporary twists on beloved fables such as Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Goldilocks, Snow White, and Aladdin. Cloaked in Blood: Little Red Riding Hood knows exactly how to handle the wolf in this shapeshifter tale. To Selena Kurt’s surprise, her clan matches her to Marcin Ulf, the big, bad wulfkin who broke her heart years ago. However, first they’re drawn into a tournament where they must face off with one another…just as their romance rekindles. The Cougar’s Pawn: Beauty Ellery Colvard is camping with friends when she gets carried away—literally—by beastly were-cougar Mason Foye, who needs a mate to avoid his fate. But witchy Ellery doesn’t believe in soul mates. If Mason can’t convince her to be his, he’s doomed to spend the rest of his days in his cougar form. Best Laid Plans: Practical anchorwoman Violet Gallagher and hotshot photojournalist Jake Macintyre live in different worlds, until the night she catches his eye at a party and loses more than her dancing shoes to him. Is their one enchanted evening worth a lifetime of dreams? Protecting the Prince: Someone’s determined to stop Eliam Prince from taking over the family shipping docks. He needs a bodyguard, no matter how much the concept makes him grumpy. But security expert Winter Wyn soon learns that keeping this beautiful man safe from sabotage, blackmailers, assassins, and his own stubborn pride isn’t nearly as hard as protecting her own bashful heart. Catch a Falling Star: Brianna Daniels’s courageous ailing stepsister has one wish: she wants to go to the ball. Brianna makes it happen and Natalie meets her prince at the fundraising gala for the city’s elite. The problem is, Brianna falls for gorgeous patent attorney Matthias Gustafson, too. What kind of wicked stepsister would begrudge a loving young woman’s one shot at happiness? A Late-Blooming Rose: Bookseller Beau Landry boldly ventures to the estate of bitter and downright beastly hermit Eva Mitchum, determined to buy her rare collection. What he discovers is a lonely, hurting, wheelchair-bound woman who has forgotten how to love. When she challenges Beau to stay with her in exchange for the books, the offer will change both their lives. His One Wish: Special forces veteran Aiden Cooper is hired to track down Turhan Technologies’ missing technical genius, Jin Ru, who’s disappeared with the prototype for their powerful new software. But when his path crosses with the alluring heiress of Turhan, Jazlin Morgan, sparks fly. Can they save her family’s company from her greedy uncle’s clutches? Music to her Ears: When blonde, bubbly Hannah “Goldie” Loxley gets a housesitting gig for the Rievaulx Trio, world-famous concert musicians, she accidentally ends up in the bed of middle brother Mike. Confusion soon leads to an undeniable attraction. But will their whirlwind romance falter when reality settles in? Fairy Trouble: When her new charge Cindy finals in an art competition in New York, fairy godmother Esmeralda must step into her slippers to attend Murphy Enterprises’ costume ball. She doesn’t expect to catch the eye of handsome, unassuming heir Ryan or fall for him. However, convincing this skeptic that magic is real and she’s not just a con artist will be no easy feat.
