Book excerpt: About This BookHaven 1: AscendCommand Warship 1 is home to one of the most feared males in the multi-verse. Zha Quin Tha is Sire to his people, next in line to the throne. He rules his military with an iron hand. His people, the Cruestaci, are a warrior race who bow to no one and no thing. They've been deemed too violent to be an ally by the Unified Consortium Defense -- the organization responsible for keeping peace between all peoples and worlds. Zha Quin didn't care what their opinion was. He was only violent when necessary -- like when provoked, or if his planet was threatened, or a weaker people overrun, or he was just irritated in general. Like now, slavers had crossed into the territory of Cruestace. He'd been called in to intercept and process the kidnapped women on board to the Consortium for return to their home worlds. Little did he know, his whole existence was about to be turned upside down. One little, human female was about to teach him a thing or two about survival, patience, and trust.One large room -- every wall, the entire floor, even the ceiling covered in mats. This is now Vivian's home. Her world extends no further than the end of the chain that keeps her anchored in the center of the room. She's learned how to use that chain as a weapon. She had to -- her captors find great sport in taunting her, abusing her, hurting her. She's exhausted, nearly starved, injured and if truth be told -- not long for this world, whatever the hell world it is. All she's got left is her pride, and she'll be damned if she gives that up to any of her alien captors. They want to play -- she'll play -- and she'll make sure they pay for it in bruises and pain the next day. They may win, but they'll think twice next time. Days run together, no hope of ever being freed. Survival seems pointless, until she finds herself face to face with the largest, scariest male she's ever seen. So be it -- she's got nothing to lose -- she'll fight him, too. Maybe this time her misery will finally come to an end. She has no idea this male is different. This male is stronger than the rest. This male will be her Haven.Warning: Intended for mature audiences. This book contains violence, abuse both real and inferred, and sexual situations that may be disturbing for some readers.

Condemned them to suffer in the fiery pits of hell. Literally. So what consequence does the devil give his own daughter? I've always been labeled as the disruptive one. The one to act impulsively, to take matters into my own hands. I can't help it, it's just the way I am. My father, Lucifer, didn't seem to care what I did until I was expelled during my senior year in high school for breaking a guy's nose. He's sending me to a school for angels. Only problem is, I'm half angel and have no wings. Now I must decide if I want to live a mediocre existence as a high school flunkey or as the Celestial Academy's pariah. Being the devil's daughter in a school full of angels is no walk in the park. It's a tough pill to swallow, but with three men at my side anything is possible. That is, unless the Fallen get what they want. *****Reviews***** "This book was great. I really really enjoyed this! It was a perfect blend of intrigue and I love the MC and her "boys".
