The Atlavans left behind their world of deserts and fading oases with their clans and few remaining females for a new chance at life on a new world. With their female birth-rate low, and losing over half of them to sickness on the voyage through the stars, the Atlavans are on the verge of extinction. Their only hope is to send out their unmated males into the world to seek out new nesting grounds on which to build their clan rookeries. Among them, Agrel and Gehj are committed to doing their duty, knowing that the joy of mates and family belong to other, more fortunate males, but when they encounter an abandoned village within the woods they are prepared for anything except the seductive call to mate with the female they discover there. Nothing is as simple as it seems for this female with her daughter. A little female who made a very specific wish… for them. And just maybe they wished for them, too. But can everyone’s wishes come true? AmazonKU

VS Note: MM SFR.
Houston… we have a problem. Ezra Miller’s life has been turned upside down ever since his best friend hooked up with an alien named Al, and not just because he walked in on them having close encounters of the third kind.

Titan Leon is everything Ezra hates in a man. He’s arrogant, presumptuous, and worst of all, hot enough to make Ezra forget why he hates him in the first place. Hot enough that “absolutely not” turns into “only this one time.” Hot enough that Ezra can overlook the fact that he’s Al’s most disliked brother. But one time isn’t enough for Titan, and he won’t take no for an answer. He’ll do whatever it takes to make Ezra his. And sure, he’s an asshole… but as much as Ezra hates him, he can’t help but see that there’s something softer about him lurking just beneath the surface. SomethingTitan only lets Ezra see. And whatever that something is, it has its hooks in Ezra so deeply, he can’t help but fall into bed with him over and over again. AmazonKU

THE PECULIAR GIFT OF JULY: A NOVEL by Ashley Ream
With a dash of magic and a cast of oddball, small-town characters, this feel-good novel explores forgiveness, family, and the sense of humor it takes to live with the ones we love the most. Ebey’s End is a small town on an island off the Pacific coast, reachable only by ferry (assuming the gods are with you and it’s not a Tuesday). It’s a comfortable, familiar (but okay, fine, sometimes lonely) life for its resident grocer Anita Odom. That is, until fourteen-year-old July shows up on her doorstep. Taking in the recently orphaned daughter of an estranged cousin had not been on Anita’s to-do list. In fact, it’s a terrible idea. Anita is ill-suited, ill-prepared, and absolutely certain the entire enterprise will end in disaster—for both of them. From the moment she arrives, July seems to “know” what each customer at the Island Grocery needs. They’re small things: a housekeeping magazine slipped into old Mr. Daly’s basket or a coconut cream pie pressed into the hands of Pastor Chet. But one by one, these gifts start to change the lives of nearly everyone in town in ways much larger than they—or July—could have imagined. It’s not long before secrets are exposed and questions emerge, and everyone in Ebey’s End has to open their hearts a little wider to make room for it all.

I thought the worst had already happened. One flashover killed my entire crew. I survived, and the world called it a tragedy. I called it hell. Demoted. Disgraced. Haunted by flames I can’t explain. Now I train rookies in the Arizona heat, trying to outrun the fire still burning under my skin. Then a new safety officer arrives. Kade Veyron, quiet, controlled, lethal in a way that sets every nerve on edge. He says he’s here to help. I’m pretty sure he’s here to watch me fall. But the way he looks at me? It’s not suspicion. It’s possession. And when the fires start acting wrong again, faster, hotter, targeted, I know this isn’t over. Someone’s using wildfire to hide something darker. And I’m the one they’ve marked to take the blame. What they don’t know is the storm they’ve just unleashed. Because Kade isn’t who he seems. And neither am I. 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 whether it’s AI or not. I won’t feature a cover in my weekly promo for this post if I believe or suspect it was largely or completely done with AI and I use the AI or Not tool to decide.
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!
Yeah. Murderbot. On preorder too
Have you been watching the TV series? Pretty well done, I think. I’m so happy for the author!
Not yet. I don’t have netflix, is it? Will binge watch at some points
Apple+. They do pretty good scifi stuff. “The Gorge” movie was SO GOOD….treated the romance part with respect and welldone…
