To save a galactic kingdom from revolution, Kindred mind-pairings were created to ensure each and every person would be seen and heard, no matter how rich or poor…

 

Joy Abara knows her place. A commoner from the lowly planet Hali, she lives a simple life—apart from the notoriety that being Kindred to the nobility’s most infamous playboy brings.

 

Duke Felix Hamdi has a plan. He will exasperate his noble family to the point that they agree to let him choose his own future and finally meet his Kindred face-to-face.

Then the royal family is assassinated, putting Felix next in line for the throne…and accused of the murders. Someone will stop at nothing until he’s dead, which means they’ll target Joy, too. Meeting in person for the first time as they steal a spacecraft and flee amid chaos might not be ideal…and neither is crash-landing on the strange backward planet called Earth. But hiding might just be the perfect way to discover the true strength of the Kindred bond and expose a scandal—and a love—that may decide the future of a galaxy.

D’Vaughn and Kris Plan a Wedding

D’Vaughn and Kris have six weeks to plan their dream wedding.

 

Their whole relationship is fake.

 

Instant I Do could be Kris Zavala’s big break. She’s right on the cusp of really making it as an influencer, so a stint on reality TV is the perfect chance to elevate her brand. And $100,000 wouldn’t hurt, either.

 

D’Vaughn Miller is just trying to break out of her shell. She’s sort of neglected to come out to her mom for years, so a big splashy fake wedding is just the excuse she needs.

 

All they have to do is convince their friends and family they’re getting married in six weeks. If anyone guesses they’re not for real, they’re out. Selling their chemistry on camera is surprisingly easy, and it’s still there when no one else is watching, which is an unexpected bonus. Winning this competition is going to be a piece of wedding cake.

 

But each week of the competition brings new challenges, and soon the prize money’s not the only thing at stake. A reality show isn’t the best place to create a solid foundation, and their fake wedding might just derail their relationship before it even starts.

The Nutcracker continues…but be careful what you wish for~

 

When I was a little girl I wished I was a fairy princess and my handsome prince would come take me away to our castle in a land far, far away.

 

Then the Captain of the Nutcracker Guard showed up and did exactly that. Except I’m not a little girl anymore and I’m falling in love with not one, but four fabled princes, who know exactly how to, uh… use their broadswords and keep me warm at night in this wintery land.

 

Now we’re on an adventure to find the seven crowns of the realm and save the land with magic and love. But we’re battling the Mouse Queen’s army at every turn and while I know it’s wrong, I’m developing a connection and a crush on the dark warrior who has me questioning who to trust.

 

Escape into the Seven Realms where every day is a holiday and in the Winter Realm there are lots of schmexy soldier nutcrackers devoted especially to you.


Just imagine… What if the Sugar Plum Fairy was actually a Dark Fae Prince?

 

What if Mother Gingerbread had a hot red-headed viking son?

 

What if the Mouse King was a shifter bad boy?

 

Your adventures continues in Stolen, Book Two of the Claimed by the Seven Realms series. Grab this why-choose-just-one-guy curvy girl romance and live the fantasy today!

The Nutcracker like you've never read it before... You want to know what I wish? I wish my father remembered who I am when he looks at me. I wish I didn't have to marry Drosselmeyer to save my family's fortune. I wish I could get a choreographer to quit judging me on the size of my tutu and let me dance. The silliest one of all - I wish someone would come to whisk me away from my dumpster fire of a life. But wishes aren't worth any more than the broken nutcracker I got on Christmas Eve. Until the old grandfather clock strikes twelve on Christmas morning when my handsome nutcracker comes to life and says ~ "I'm the captain of the Nutcracker Guard and it's our sworn duty to protect you, Princess." Escape into the Seven Realms where every day is a holiday and in the land of Christmas there are lots of schmexy soldier nutcrackers devoted especially to you. Just imagine… What if the Sugar Plum Fairy was actually a Dark Fae Prince? What if Mother Gingerbread had a hot red-headed viking son? What if the Mouse King was a shifter bad boy?
