OLIVIA: ALIEN SURROGATE AGENCY BOOK SIX by Tasha Black

Olivia Sinclair loves her tiny apartment and her job cracking online code to find holes in security systems. But her infertility has left her desperately lonely. On Terra-58, a woman can’t marry until she has conceived a child, so Olivia spends all her money and free time on visits to the local fertility clinic as her savings and hope dwindle. Then she stumbles across a secret fertility program that just might put a baby in her arms and satisfy her curiosity about Oberon, the powerful computer that runs the mysterious center. When she arrives, she learns she will have to make a baby the old-fashioned way with the brawny alien warrior who is waiting for her. Stark’s gruff demeanor and wicked horns have her shivering, but she feels strangely drawn to the mountain of a man who so badly wants a baby of his own. Stark Rawling wants only two things: redemption from his military past, and a child to love. The self-made billionaire’s employees say behind his back that he’s cold, but he didn’t get where he is by taking it easy. When he cuts a deal with the center to provide him with a surrogate as part of his contract to design new security for them, he doesn’t expect to find himself fighting hard not to fall for the young Terran girl with the joyful smile and infectious laugh. Now the big alien warrior has to protect his heart as well as the center. And that’s easier said than done when the two must share a bed in the most romantic place in the known universe. When outside forces threaten to topple the delicate balance of life inside, Stark will have to face his feelings and Olivia will have to open her heart to him if they want to survive.      AmazonKU

Vhuron, the captain of that scoutship, found himself entranced not by those epic tales, but by the stories of ordinary males and females finding their perfect mates. His favorite? The Spaceship Captain’s Bride by the great human historian Savannah Harper. Now it’s time for Vhuron to choose his own mate. Unfortunately, no one appeals to him. But he has a plan. And who better to help him implement it than the one human who knows everything there is to know about choosing a mate? There’s only one catch.

A dead vampire passed on a note that he should remain in the little village and the one he seeks will find him. Duke doesn’t dare speak the words aloud, but he knows the message can only refer to his true-mate. Omega coyote, Syre, is on a mission to solve a mystery of his own. Who is his biological sire? He’s done a lot of speculating, but the question has never been answered to his satisfaction. Both of the parents who raised him are coyote shifters, but Syre is a bit more than just another coyote shifter in the Fox Family Territory. He’s also a vampire with a deep-seated bloodlust. Someone, somewhere, isn’t telling the truth, and he’s afraid of what the answer might be if he ever finds out.     AmazonKU

“New” is generally plus or minus a week or two. I try to catch up on ones I missed in recent months.  And I may mention ‘special items’.

NOTE: I’m doing my best to avoid listing anything generated from use of AI but it’s sometimes tricky to detect from the resources I have available. As far as covers go, I list the Amazon cover. I won’t feature a cover in my weekly promo for this post if I believe or suspect it was done with AI.

I do NOT cover every single new release in SFR/FantasyR/PNR. I never have. That would be an impossible task for any human! I assemble my list by hand every week based on various informal inputs, and I do curate the list to some extent…

Some authors aren’t in KU but still don’t list books with Apple or other platforms. This report is very time consuming to prepare so I’ve always had to limit myself and cannot go and look up every book on all the platforms. If an author gives me their other buy links, I include them here but generally I develop the post on my own, not from author-supplied information. I curate and prepare this post individually every week to help connect readers/books/authors and I have to be very careful not to give it so much time as an activity that I don’t write my own novels! Thanks for the feedback and happy reading!

I check and verify all the buy links at the time I create the post  but after that I’m not responsible.

    • Thanks for asking! Originally this NR Report was going to include my new book but then it didn’t go live soon enough on the various platforms, so I deleted it. By then I was too tired to figure out which one from my backlist to add instead! There’s just a lot of work to this post and by the time it’s late on Tuesday I’m ‘done’, you know? Best wishes!
