Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only thing real about their fake relationship? The chemistry. Calypso Elliot creates chaos wherever she goes, a hurricane in a handbasket who came to Superstition Springs to restart her life, not attract the attention of a stalker. The last thing she expects is for Garrison Rockwell to jump at the chance to play her fake boyfriend-slash-bodyguard. He attends to her every need. Takes care of her and her problems. It’s so…sexy. Ex-Navy SEAL Garrison Rockwell likes everything in its place and structures his life in this tiny Texas town to ensure it stays that way. It makes no sense why he’d be so intensely attracted to a hot mess like Calypso Elliot. They’re totally incompatible. But faking things is so much fun, it’s easy to forget. Except Calypso is the opposite of a woman Garrison can build a normal, non-chaotic life with. She’s not so sure he can handle a woman like her long term, either. There’s no way this can last forever…even if they fall for each other.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2013, sixteen-year-old Alora is having blackouts. Each time she wakes up in a different place with no idea how she got there. The one thing she is certain of? Someone is following her. In 2146, seventeen-year-old Bridger is one of a small number of people born with the ability to travel to the past. While on a routine school time trip, he sees the last person he expected—his dead father. The strangest part is that, according to the Department of Temporal Affairs, his father was never assigned to be in that time. Bridger’s even more stunned when he learns that his by-the-book father was there to break the most important rule of time travel—to prevent someone’s murder. And that someone is named Alora. Determined to discover why his father wanted to help a “ghost,” Bridger illegally shifts to 2013 and, along with Alora, races to solve the mystery surrounding her past and her connection to his father before the DTA finds him. If he can stop Alora’s death without altering the timeline, maybe he can save his father too.

Download or read book Forever Free written by Joe Haldeman and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A well-written and worthy sequel to one of SF’s enduring classics”—the Nebula Award winner The Forever War—now with a bonus story, “A Separate War” (Publishers Weekly). On virtually every list of the greatest military science fiction adventures ever written, Joe Haldeman’s Hugo and Nebula Award–winning classic, The Forever War, is ranked at the very top. In Forever Free, the Science Fiction Writers of America Grand Master and author of the acclaimed Worlds series returns to that same volatile universe where human space marines once engaged the alien Taurans in never-ending battle. While loyal soldier William Mandella was fighting for the survival of the human race in a distant galaxy, thousands of years were passing on his home planet, Earth. Then, with the end of the hostilities came the shocking realization that humanity had evolved into something he did not recognize. Offered the choice of retaining his individuality or becoming part of the genetically modified shared Human hive-mind, Mandella chose exile, joining other veterans of the Forever War seeking a new life on a wasteland world they called Middle Finger. Making a home for themselves in this half-frozen hell, Mandella and his life partner, Marygay, have survived into middle age, raising a son and a daughter in the process. Now, the dark truth about the colonists’ ultimate role in the continuation of the Human group mind will force Mandella and Marygay to take desperate action as they hijack an interstellar vessel and set off on a frantic escape across space and time. But what awaits them upon their return is a mystery far beyond all human—or Human—comprehension . . . In Forever Free, Joe Haldeman’s stunning vision of humankind’s far future reaches its enthralling conclusion in a masterwork of speculation from the mind and heart of one of the undisputed champions of hard science fiction. And in the bonus story included in this volume, “A Separate War,” Marygay, reassigned and separated from her lover, Mandella, continues fighting in military engagements across the stars—all the while planning how she and Mandella can reunite despite the time and space between them.
