Book Description
Damekio Gardner was the girl who had it all: designer clothes, lavish jewelry, fancy cars, and a few streetwise hustlers to provide it all. After dating Miles for a while, her life became a continuous, vicious cycle, dating one thug after another, all of whom wanted to live their lives in the fast lane. Her life was consumed by street drama, destruction, and tragedy. For many years, Damekio struggled against constant animosity, the slandering of her name by jealous women, and constant battles with her lovers. She was beginning to feel she was running out of options. She finally reached her breaking point in response to the death of her son's father; that's when she resolved to seek the guidance of God. Damekio now knows that every experience of her life the positive and the negative was a lesson. Making mistakes and learning from them helped her to become the strong, passionate woman she is today. She now hopes to share her testimony to give hope to others who may be facing the dilemmas she did.

Book Description
Peleng is a planet ripe for the plucking, and Drake Maijstral is an Allowed Burglar rated in the Top Ten by the Imperial Sporting Commission. But what should be a simple case of breaking-and-plundering turns into an intergalactic crisis when Maijstral steals something so rare, so valuable, so utterly desirable, that everyone wants it— including well-armed Imperial spies, gun-toting human militias, a homicidal maniac with a very large sword, and a fanatical countess with a really, really nasty croquet habit. The Crown Jewels, by award-winning author Walter Jon Williams, is sophisticated science fiction comedy at its best.

Book Description
"So, where's the human?" Olivia pursed her lips at the disrespect. "Her name is Haisley, and she's in the room next to your old room." Roman stiffened, remembering the sweet scent from that direction when he came up earlier. It couldn't be. "How old is your friend?" Olivia raised her eyebrow at the question but answered despite it. "She's a year older than me, but her birthday is in a few months, so she's still 26." Roman nodded slightly at that as he stepped out of the room. "I'll see you at dinner." He walked towards his bedroom and could hear the shower in the shared bathroom. He was itching to see her face. Haisley. Why was her scent so intoxicating? Mangoes and coconut. The smell dominated his senses, and he was having trouble focusing. He needed to check to be sure himself. Without overthinking it, he barged into the unlocked bathroom. Stupid girl. He muttered to himself as the intoxicating scent filled the whole bathroom. He knew what this meant. But it wasn't possible. Could it be? Haisley screeched as she held the towel tighter around her, just stepping out of the shower, but she had accidentally grabbed one of the shorter towels in the closet. It barely covered her ass, and Haisley felt very vulnerable standing naked across the man who barged in rudely while she was in the shower. It clicked, then. It was Olivia's brother, one of her older brothers. She stood there watching him; she felt too intimidated to even raise her voice at him. What is wrong with me? Do something, idiot. Don't just stand there. She looked at Roman and let out a scream, hoping Olivia would hear and come running to save her from her brute of a brother. But before the sound could even echo, he pressed her into the glass shower doors. A hand pressed firmly on her mouth. Strange sensations spread across her body, clouding her judgment as she stared at Roman with the same confused look in his eyes. However, unlike him, she recovered quickly, pushing him hard, almost losing her towel, and ran to the door that led to her room. MATE! Roman's wolf growled in his head as Haisley slipped away from him. No, this can't be. She's human, and I'm the Alpha King. She can't be. * * * Haisley, a small-town girl with big dreams lives with her roommate and best friend, Olivia for the past six years in Liverpool. They just graduated as Veterinarians and for their last summer together before they part ways, Olivia invites Haisley, her maid of honour, to her small town, Magnolia Springs, Alabama, where she is getting married. However, Haisley didn't know she was stepping into a territory filled with Supernatural beings. From the moment she stepped into the town, she was met with cold shoulders. Will Haisley survive the summer? Will she uncover the secrets of this Mystic Town? And why does Olivia's brother take a sudden interest in her?
