James Decker, captain of the living starship Farrago, has a mission: locate the seven symbiotes scattered across space. This mission will bring him credits beyond his imaginations, but it could also save the universe. He has found three, but there are still four more out there. All the while, the strange, faceless man from the Cloud Sea is never far away. He has his eye on this side of the void, and Captain James Decker might be the only one who can stop him.

Atticus Dupont is my stalker. My savior. My captor. He wants to keep me for himself. I was yanked from August's arms and thrown into the deadly underbelly of the criminal kingdom. Atticus is my only ally in this place, and he revels in knowing that I must rely on him if I want to survive—if I want to get back to my future husband. Atticus is dangerous, and I don't trust him. I despise him. I ache for him. The playboy billionaire has demons of his own. Somehow, I started to fall for him, and I can't leave now. Mighty is the sword. Violent are the crown's enemies.

Leo is afraid of heartbreak. My shadow. My protector. He doesn't want to share. The crushing burden of wedlock descended upon me, threatening to ensnare me in an unbreakable bond. I refused to accept my fate; I had to be courageous for my men. Filled with a burning passion, I declared myself the Bloody Queen and led my men in a daring struggle for their freedom. As we charged into battle, I knew that our victory would not come without great sacrifice.

I've been able to keep my personal and academic life separate for the last three years I've been at Newhouse University. Not even my best friend/roommate knows the truth about my past. I learned a long time ago the best way to survive is to be invisible. My hope of graduating under the radar goes up in flames when James Hart gets assigned as my journalism partner. Not only do we have to write an article together, but he also has to write a story about me. I don't see an easy way out of this one.

Rafael Huntsman, crown prince of a sinful empire. Possessive. Dangerous. Achingly beautiful. And consumed by a chilling past. When I was nineteen, he laid eyes on me like it was the very first time. From that moment, I was his. Although it wasn't until much later, under a moonlit sky in a vineyard awash with fairy lights, that I surrendered—and he disappeared. Then fate intervened. Now we're forced together in a treacherous criminal world. He's still dangerously seductive, but I'm not an innocent girl anymore. I have a secret that puts us both in peril—and there's no going back.

The aftermath of my parent's death was the toughest time in my life, but at least I had him. He was there every step of the way, wiped the tears I shed, and made me smile when I'd forgotten how to. Until he became the reason why I had to protect my heart with one simple rule—no more kissing. Six years later, because life had a great sense of humor, I found myself having to use that same rule on the man who inspired it. It's no surprise it didn't work. After all, my heart was never my own to protect—it belonged to Ares Hart the entire time.

All my friends are under the impression I'm only at Newhouse to chase women and play baseball. Those are two of my favorite pastimes. The truth is Newhouse is my chance to save my family's farm. If I don't get drafted, we'll lose everything we've been working hard to keep. Then I hear her sing, and she's all I can think about. It's messing up my game and putting my future in jeopardy. I need to get her out of my system, but this girl is playing hard to get.

The golden sun inked beneath the base of her neck is the reason for both. In Altaerra, it meant life as a Sunchosen, one of the twenty children branded by the Goddesses at birth to sit on the council ruling Altaerra. For Iris, it meant a fate confined in a glittering cage, forged and warped by power. Considered a traitor to the Divine after escaping the Bronze Palace as a child, Iris knows that maintaining her new life as an apothecary apprentice to the woman who saved her relies on remaining hidden.

With Egil the last male symbiote seeking to enter the Myrmidon System and destroy it, Captain James Decker and the crew of the Farrago have their work cut out for them. Egil is a being with more power than any other living creature, even James Decker with all his symbiote enhancements. But Decker has yet to complete his quest. There are more female symbiotes lost in space. If he can find them before it’s too late, he might just save the universe.

I should have seen it coming. But I was too busy drowning in her essence. Enjoying every lush curve. Hanging onto each duplicitous word that tumbled from her sultry lips. Even now, with the cards on the table and the secrets exposed, I crave her. Every traitorous inch of her delectable body. She's mine. She's always been mine, and I don't care if she's my ruin. Forbidden fruit has never been sweeter…
