She’s a force to be reckoned with… Marisol Medina is all about the hustle. Reporting for duty with a shiny new business degree, she’s not only the first Medina to go to college, she’s also the knight in shining hoops that literally everyone is counting on to take their struggling family bar and turn it into the profitable taqueria of their dreams. Why? Because tacos and tequila solve everything. Obviously. There’s just one problem. She’s hit a snag. A big, sexy, bearded, six-foot-plus snag. This isn’t how he’d planned on getting her attention… Sy Ransom, owner of Symon Says Sweets, ran out of room in his bakery about two seconds after he opened it. He needs to expand, and putting in an offer for the empty building next door seems like a win-win situation. He’ll be able to double his size without having to leave the location he’s come to love. The building isn’t technically on the market, but he figures it won’t hurt to ask, right? Wrong. He is so wrong. The result…a Mexican standoff. Now locked in a bidding war, his thriving bakery and her family’s struggling taco shop are contracted to cater the town’s most anticipated anniversary shindig. Can they keep things professional or will the oven mitts come off once the lime wedges come out?

Before long, his fellow warlords, Sparx of Fyeir and Matrix of Gunninng, arrive to remind him that Hamuir isn’t the only tunnel city in search of mates.

Book Description
K’hor, Warlord of Hamuir, was stuck between a rock and hard place… Literally. On Djaromir, a remote and desolate mining planet, K’hor and two fellow warlords rule a rugged, but desperate people. With few females remaining, the miners of Djaromir must find new mates or face extinction. When the opportunity arises to rescue Earth-women kidnapped, K’hor sees a new future for his people. With the new brides under his protection, he hopes that a little time alone with his men will be enough to convince at least some of the women to stay —specifically the one he realizes is his mate. Juniper wanted a family, not a kidnapping and hostage situation... Applying for the Bridal Pact had taken every ounce of courage Juniper had left in her compact 5’2’’ body. High hopes for a new future had burst into flames the moment she realized her bridal liaison was nothing more than a wolf in sheep’s clothing—or in this case a human trafficker in a cheap dress suit. Waking on a harsh alien world, Junie knew her plans had gone poof. Blaming it on her bad luck, she’s ready to throw in the towel and admit defeat when he walks in. Unable to deny a strange and powerful attraction for her Warlord rescuer, Juniper has some tough decisions to make. Even though it makes no sense, Junie can’t shake the feeling that she belongs here—with him. Djaromir was offering her everything she’d ever wanted, topped with one deliciously alpha, panty-wetting Warlord. Was she crazy or could this be fate’s plan all along?

Book Description
A woman on a mission… Petal Jane, PJ to her family, is on the way to rescue her big sister—whether she wants her to or not. Or at least that was the plan her parents had come up with. “Don’t worry,” they assured her. It was supposed to be foolproof. First, sign up for the Djaromir volunteer program. Check. Second, catch a Phaeton spaceship to the distant planet where her sister had disappeared to. Check. Last, grab her sister and get the hell back to Earth before one of the big guys think she’s there to get mated, sexed up, and pregnant like all the other fools she’d arrived with… And that’s where she runs into a snag. He’s more than a little rough around the edges… Shuddre doesn’t talk much—if at all. His penchant for silence, combined with his mountainous size, makes others uncomfortable. Taller and wider than all of his brethren, his bulk is both a blessing and a curse. His massive size and abilities are valuable assets to Gunninng, yet when he’s within the tunnels of the city, he feels suffocated. It’s one of the reasons why he’s determined to answer his warlord’s summons, find out what Gunninng needs, and then get the hell back to the mines as quickly as possible. He never thought there’d be anything to keep him here… Until he saw her.
