**Princess Tharon and Princess Roswynd were best of friends as kids; now they are enemies and forced to marry each other.**
The Kingdom of White Sommer and the Kingdom of Wyndfeld had been united and strong. Princess Tharon of White Sommer grew up with her best friend Princess Roswynd of Wyndfeld, both having vowed to always be together. But it all came crashing down when Tharon’s mother was murdered by Roswynd’s family. The two kingdoms plunged into a dark, bloody war of revenge and hatred. After ten long years at war, the kingdoms agree to a ceasefire, but under the condition of a forced marriage between the two princesses.
Tharon becomes the Prince and Lord Commander of the White Sommer Army and a knight known as the Black Wulf. She has dedicated her life to conquering Wyndfeld and avenging her mother’s murder. Even better, she *finally* gets to claim Roswynd as her Omega. Now nothing can stop her from having it all.
Roswynd grew up broken and enraged over Tharon’s betrayal of their friendship pact. Now forced to marry Tharon, she is at a loss with her new wife, finding no remnants of her best friend under Tharon’s cold exterior. She gives her wedding vows to Tharon, but she knows their vows are based on lies. She will protect her kingdom from Tharon.
As Tharon and Roswynd play the game, they both discover they must choose between honoring their wedding vows or their vows to their kingdom.

Princess Roswynd's final attempt to reach her childhood best friend may forever change the course of their future. Their forced marriage is unbearable and heartbreaking, but Roswynd will make any payment to save Tharon from the rage consuming her.
Together, Roswynd and Tharon face their damaged relationship and try to find ways to mend their hearts.

**The Sworne have returned to the Milky Way!**
The Sworne arrive in Kander's airspace and demand only one thing; the surrender of all Earthlings for termination. Upon Kal's refusal, fighting ensues and hostages are taken on both sides until Kal and Charlie win the skirmish, forcing a ceasefire. The Sworne offer an exchange of hostages, a trade of resources, and a promise to depart the solar system, if the Sworne keep their word.
Charlie and Kal accept that they're not prepared to challenge their enemy today, needing time to obtain more weapons and allies for the impending war. Together, they lay plans to prepare Kander for war including seeking allies. They are left with one worrisome concern: will an alliance with Serrato Corps be a necessary evil?
**Holy Kal! Now what?**
Kal loses the Spirit of Kalatas and returns to her former self as Sumner. Not only does Sumner confront old memories, but also vulnerability, risk, as well as a rare opportunity to truly be herself with Charlie.
The dangers of outer space weigh on Charlie, who will protect her mate on their mission to secure an alliance with Serrato Corps. Without the Spirit of Kalatas between them, Charlie finds she's falling deeper for Sumner and slipping back into her selfish need to keep Sumner all to herself.
Will Sumner and Charlie’s mission off world succeed, or is this the break the Sworne needed to capture Kander with Kal gone? Hearts, callings, and passions will be tested by the Celestial Fates.
**Charlie never meant to trigger more than just new feelings between her and Kal!**
But now she faces an Alpha in full rut, while struggling to keep her promise and not allow Kal to mark her for life, which could send Kander into another civil war.
After agreeing to spend the next six months on Kander, Charlie finds a few stolen moments of peace, until Serrato Corps puts a bounty on her head, and it’s discovered the Sworne might be returning to the Milky Way. In a desperate need to protect her planet, Kal hires Charlie for another dangerous mission, in hopes she can learn more about the Sworne.
If Charlie survives the mission and secures her target, will the women be prepared for what they learn about the Sworne, Serrato Corps, and what it'll mean for Kander?
**Any landing Charlie can limp away from is a good one!**
After crash-landing in Kardos, Charlie returns to New Earth for the first time since her childhood and learns how much life has changed in the human settlement. New Earth is a reformed place of peace, beauty, and security… almost. The recent, mysterious string of kidnappings has left everyone on edge, and Charlie is determined to help her people.
When Kal arrives at New Earth, she sets her sights on Alpha Prime, who many believe are kidnapping the Earthlings. In a prearranged meeting with the fanatical group’s leader, Kal hopes to learn more about Alpha Prime and the kidnappings. With Charlie's clever help, they uncover Alpha Prime's secrets, leading them into a bloody civil battle.
Can Alpha Prime be stopped before the arrival of the Sworne? And how will the new threat challenge Charlie and Kal's developing relationship? Join them on their first adventure together as they face off against an enemy bent on destroying Earthlings.
**Charlie always swore she'd go out with a bang!**
But it isn't her time, at least not in Kal's eyes. Questioning her survival, Charlie learns that the godly ruler brought her back from death. Charlie refuses to believe it, until she witnesses it for herself.
Although Charlie isn't ready to face the truth behind Kal's actions, they continue their dangerous and secretive affair. Their relationship grows deeper, triggering more than just new feelings. All signs are pointing toward change, but Charlie focuses on what happened to Starr, her only surviving crewmember. To her horror, Starr has been taken by the other surviving group of Earthlings, who are on Serrato, and will be auctioned off into slavery. Charlie hastens to put together a team in hopes of rescuing Starr from a prison on one of Serrato's moons.
But can Charlie make it in time before Starr is sold and lost forever? And will she be prepared for what changes will come to Kal, herself, and even the future of Kander?
**Princess Kinsey has been given four Alpha slaves, and she must choose one to impregnate her.**
Aubrey, a She-Alpha, was sold into slavery at an early age due to her misunderstood "degenerate" nature. Trapped in the Tharnstone Castle, Aubrey has a chance to win her freedom, if she can show her Alpha's worthiness and be chosen to impregnate the princess. But when she learns the Alpha will be forbidden to see the child, she considers the real cost of freedom.
Kinsey will one day be the Omega queen of her father's kingdom, but first she must provide an heir for the House of Wymarc. All she must do is pick an Alpha, despite her aversion towards them. But she soon discovers there's more to some Alphas, than the volatile, dull beasts she's used to.
Now, the choice isn't so simple.
Set deep in the Milky Way galaxy, the beautiful planet, Kander, has been inhabited only by the Kalmar, a race of Alphas and Omegas, until Earth’s humans arrived years ago and disrupted their peace. Since its first dawning, Kander has been ruled by one Kalmar simply known as Kal, a supreme Alpha who harnesses a god’s spirit.
Charlie, an indignant human raised on Kander during the civil war, is beckoned back after she escaped as a teen. Needing money and a job more than her pride, Charlie is hired to retrieve a kidnapped Omega that was taken off-world. Charlie and her mercenary team work with Kal in preparation of their mission. Together, she and Kal form a plan, however, Charlie soon learns intimate details about Kal’s rare nature as a “female” Alpha.
As Charlie and her team embark on the journey to rescue the Omega, they are faced with startling questions about the true motives behind the kidnapping. It was supposed to be just another job, but when Charlie starts to give a damn about both the missing Omega and the enigmatic Alpha ruler, it leaves her in the crossfire.
