Book excerpt: Allison Harper has long lived with the constant reminders that Earth has become overpopulated. So, when she’s chosen to join a research team sent into space in search of a new planet to occupy, she’s eager and excited to start the journey. When she’s taken by a hostile group of the planet’s native people, however, she gets a lot more adventure than she ever bargained for. The Samou are a group of dragon shifters and Allison’s captors. Hakona, the man responsible for kidnapping her, is harsh, rude, and intimidating. But, when Allison finds herself trapped in a world filled with secrets, lies, and hate, she turns to the one person she shouldn’t for comfort—the man who took her. As the Samou’s lead warrior, Hakona will have to choose between the woman who’s captured his heart and the people he’s sworn allegiance to. The deeper they dive into their forbidden relationship, the more complicated their situation becomes. Sworn enemies, Allison and Hakona can’t fight the feelings quickly forming between them. The tension between the two opposing groups is building quickly, as the heat between Allison and Hakona grows, as well. Will she choose him over the safety of her own people? Will he risk losing everything to protect the one person he shouldn’t?

Download or read book Mythic Discourses written by Frog and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mythic discourses in the present day show how vernacular heritage continues to function and be valuable through emergent interpretations and revaluations. At the same time, continuities in mythic images, motifs, myths and genres reveal the longue durée of mythologies and their transformations. The eighteen articles of Mythic Discourses address the many facets of myth in Uralic cultures, from the Finnish and Karelian world-creation to Nenets shamans, offering multidisciplinary perspectives from twenty eastern and western scholars. The mythologies of Uralic peoples differ so considerably that mythology is approached here in a broad sense, including myths proper, religious beliefs and associated rituals. Traditions are addressed individually, typologically, and in historical perspective. The range and breadth of the articles, presenting diverse living mythologies, their histories and relationships to traditions of other cultures such as Germanic and Slavic, all come together to offer a far richer and more developed perspective on Uralic traditions than any one article could do alone.

Book excerpt: Atlas has long watched his friends and fellow warriors find their mates. He’s heard all about how it’s supposedly the most magical thing that can happen, how you feel complete and happy and whole, and he’s tried not to be bitter over the fact that he still hasn’t found his mate. It hasn’t been for lack of trying, either. With his skill on the battlefield, he’s highly sought after by the females of his kind and other kinds as well, but there has never been that spark. When he’s chosen to accompany the princess of their people to Earth, he thinks nothing of it. It’ll be a good distraction from things that aren’t going the way he wants them to, if anything. Certainly he doesn’t anticipate any kind of foul plot afoot with consequences that reach far beyond their own kind. He definitely doesn’t expect to meet Katlyn Pierce, bartender by night, student by day, with her sharp eyes and sharper tongue. By the end of his escort duty, Atlas is honestly not sure which is more surprising: that he’s fighting his own people to save a planet he barely understands or that he’s fairly sure he’s found the other half of his soul. But the princess isn’t above exploiting his newfound connection, and Atlas just might find himself fighting to save his mate as well as the rest of the world.

Book excerpt: Meagan Cooper has spent her entire life safely tucked away in her father's Court. As the President's daughter, her life has always been more or less decided for her. Just six months shy of marrying her fiancé Daryn, a high-ranking military man, she can't help but begin to feel trapped in her monotonous routine. But, when Earth is invaded by the Samou, a race of dragon-shifting aliens from one of the Empire's mining planets, her life suddenly takes a very drastic turn. Kidnapped by the human rebels who have joined forces with the Samou, Meagan is ripped away from the security of her home and thrown into the parallel universe of life outside the Capital city. Terrified and alone, she somehow finds comfort in the one person she never expected to. Chronos is the Samou lead warrior. A muscular, exotic, aggressive man, he takes it upon himself to challenge Meagan. He forces her to face the reality of corruption and greed that permeate the Empire she so loyally continues to defend. As the tension between them grows, so does the attraction. The lines between anger and desire quickly become blurred, and in the end, Meagan will be faced to choose between the man she can't resist and the life she's always known.

Download or read book Galen Barbarian Mates written by Ashley West and published by Monster Media LLC. This book was released on with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alinsoth is, for all intents and purposes, a scrap yard. It’s an abandoned moon, floating in the middle of space, where refuse and other discarded things seem to collect. It’s also the base of the Amakari, barbarian people who use their weapons to speak for them and, occasionally, work as warriors for hire. They are a rough and tumble bunch, trying to keep out of sight of the Imperials, who rule most of the planets around them. It keeps them isolated, but this suits them fine. Galen, one of the barbarians, has no problems with his life. He likes the fighting, and he tries not to remember his life before he came to Alinsoth. He’s brash and reckless and rude, which is perfect since he’s also one of the best fighters they have. But when something crash lands on their little moon and it turns out to be a human woman who can’t remember who she is or how she got there, Galen will find out that he has a softer side, once he learns to trust her, that is. He has no idea who she is or why she’s so far from home, but the answers don’t stay hidden for long. In fact, eventually they come calling in the form of a giant warship, and the Amakari way of life, along with the woman Galen has come to care for, are heavily threatened.
Download or read book My Alien King written by Ashley West and published by Monster Media LLC. This book was released on with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amelia Hatcher has been suffering from migraines and holes in her memory for as long as she can remember. Sometimes she'll fall asleep in the living room and then wake up in her bathtub with no recollection of how she got there at all. After years of this, she gets fed up and finally seeks out a doctor, one who tells her that she's probably not crazy and is definitely being visited by aliens. Mia’s not pleased at the thought that she’s being mocked by a healthcare professional who she came to for help, but it's much harder to doubt when she wakes up to find a strange man climbing through her window, and telling her that she needs to come with him right away. Of course, the fact that several definitely not human looking things make their appearance soon after does a lot to make her believe, too. She never asked to be singled out by a runaway king and his princely nephew, but she’s about to be offered a stunning opportunity to change her life forever.
Download or read book Gumbo Ya Ya written by Aurielle Marie and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gumbo Ya Ya, Aurielle Marie’s stunning debut, is a cauldron of hearty poems exploring race, gender, desire, and violence in the lives of Black gxrls, soaring against the backdrop of a contemporary South. These poems are loud, risky, and unapologetically rooted in the glory of Black gxrlhood. The collection opens with a heartrending indictment of injustice. What follows is a striking reimagination of the world, one where no Black gxrl dies “by the barrel of the law” or “for loving another Black gxrl.” Part familial archival, part map of Black resistance, Gumbo Ya Ya catalogs the wide gamut of Black life at its intersections, with punching cultural commentary and a poetic voice that holds tenderness and sharpness in tandem. It asks us to chew upon both the rich meat and the tough gristle, and in doing so we walk away more whole than we began and thoroughly satisfied. Excerpt from “transhistorical for the x in my gxrls” What I mean is, this country is mine if only because from my mouth I spit its loam and unspun a noose. I won’t exploit the only metaphor they gave us willingly, and instead hunt for other vicious things to make a muse. I earned this country. I owe it nothing. With my infinite, infant hand, I manipulated a death sentence into a compound-complex one. from the umbilical, I bled a life worth writing down and in a century’s time, there will be another word created still for the weeping magic of this same story: a Black gxrl’s first breath.
