ESCAPE TO NOWHERE (A PLANET OF LAST RESORT NOVELLA) by Veronica Scott

Fleeing the zombie apocalypse on an isolated colony planet, two strangers find a common purpose and more as they strive to reach promised sanctuary in a refugee camp. Les McDaniel barely had a chance to get a cup of coffee in the town of Rosewater before it falls to the swarming infected. He steps in to drive one of the two school buses designated as escape vehicles. He didn’t ask for the responsibility for the lives of all these other people, most of whom he doesn’t even know but he’ll do his best to get them to the refugee camp safely. Then he’s off on his own, no government-run camp for him. Devora Sims was the police dispatcher for the town of Rosewater before the Western Flu hit and left hordes of vicious infected in its wake. The scion of a prominent local family stepped in when infrastructure failed and became a ruthless warlord. She found a temporary haven running his kitchen but then the compound fell to the infected, he was killed and she managed to get herself on one of the buses, with the additional responsibility for an abandoned toddler she rescued. Les and Devora forge an alliance as the bus trip continues and her feelings become deeply engaged with the reluctant hero bus driver. But he’s made it plain he won’t stay at the refugee camp and she can’t imagine trying to live on the run in the open, especially with a child. Will they reach the camp? Will it still be there? And what kind of future could Les and Devora build on a relationship born of the chaos? Author’s Note: This 36K word novella continues the story of the survivors of Rosewater and is related to books one and two of the Planet of Last Resort series. There’s a Happy for Now ending to this novella but Les and Devora will be continuing characters in book three, when the series reconnects with the main characters from the previous books.

SARVEN’S OATH (BARBARIANS OF THE DUST BOOK THREE) by A G Wilde

All I wanted was a job. Instead, I got a desert planet, a low-grade fever, and a seven-foot alien shadow I call “Stabby.” Life in the caves is simple: Don’t die of planet sickness, try to make alien lizard meat taste like chicken, and ignore the massive, golden-skinned warrior sharpening his blade in the corner. His name is Sarven. I call him Stabby McGoldy. He doesn’t speak English, and I don’t speak “Growl.” But he watches me. Constantly. With red eyes that are terrifyingly intense and a lack of personal space that is frankly alarming. I’m determined to stay independent. I can fetch my own water, thank you very much. I don’t need a mate. I need a life that’s less complicated and a way off this rock. But when our clan’s only water source turns toxic, survival goes from difficult to impossible. Suddenly, my independence isn’t enough. I need a hunter who can track the source of the poison before the desert claims us all. Now Stabby is stepping out of the shadows to help, and as the heat rises, I’m starting to realize that the only thing more dangerous than the water might be falling for the alien who’s decided I’m his.       AmazonKU

MATED TO THE DRAGON WARLORD (FATED MATES OF THE SARKARNII WARLORDS BOOK THREE) by Hattie Jacks

An alien dragon warlord has bitten me…and apparently that makes me his? I was minding my business, enjoying a party, like any normal human who has found herself on the other side of the galaxy in the company of aliens who can turn into dragons, when out of nowhere…I got bitten. What’s worse is the Sarkarnii warlord who bit me, Dante, has to be the most unhinged of them all. Yeah, sure, he’s got abs for days and a face which would make angels weep, but he’s a mass of bad habits and a maelstrom of chaos, not to mention he and his crew are seemingly hell bent on destruction, both of themselves and their surroundings… all of the time. And now he has claimed me by way of a bite, which is apparently how these aliens take their mates. But I didn’t sign up for this and if Dante wants me, he’s going to have to prove himself. Which would be fine and dandy, if it wasn’t for the looming evil which wants to possess all of the Sarkarnii, and it’s not going to stop, not until they are all under its control.      AmazonKU

FIRST CLASS DELIVERY (YOU’VE GOT ALIEN MAIL BOOK FIVE) by Lara Roth

POLLY My job was boring: deliver diplomatic records, get paid, fly home. But my “cargo” turns out to be Lord Rynn Valorian—a high-born alien noble with a bounty on his head. Now, we are being hunted by corporate assassins, and I’m trapped in deep space with His Royal Brooding. He hates my music. He hates my “reckless” flying. And he really hates how I strip down to fix the engine vents. But every time we survive a near-miss, his perfect control cracks a little more. He looks at me with hungry, possessive eyes that say I’m not just his pilot… I’m his. RYNN Polly is chaos incarnate. She is loud, irreverent, and utterly unsuitable for a male of my station. Logic dictates I keep my distance; her human fragility is a liability. But when the hunters close in, something ancient and primal wakes up inside me. She refuses to leave my side, even when the galaxy burns around us. She thinks she is just saving a passenger. She doesn’t realize that by staying, she has sealed her fate. I will destroy anyone who tries to take her from me.      AmazonKU

The terms of service were forty-seven pages long. I read every single one. Highlighted the exit clauses. Made flashcards. Because when you’re signing up for an intergalactic matchmaking program after three failed engagements, you do your research. My match?

I’ve got a ninety-four percent win rate in court and zero intention of losing this case. There’s just one problem. His tail can’t lie. Every time he pretends he doesn’t want me, it wraps around my waist like it’s filing a counter-argument. Commander Torek thinks he can scare me off with his walls and his warnings and his whole “humans always leave” speech. He has clearly never met a lawyer who’s been left at the altar. Three times. I don’t run. I don’t quit. And I definitely don’t lose. Thirty days to prove I’m staying. One grumpy alien who’s already losing the fight. And a tail that’s about to snitch on everything he’s feeling. Game on, Commander.      Amazon       AB

BOUGHT BY THE RAVEN KING: MONSTERS BRIDE MARKET by Ava York

At the Bride Market, a wolf’s heat nearly burns through my borrowed life. So I choose the monster in the corner instead. The one made of shadow and frost. The one they only whisper about. The Raven King buys me with funeral coins and says he’s purchasing my silence. I don’t tell him I’m already dead. I don’t tell him his cold is the first thing that hasn’t hurt since I clawed my way out of the ground. I just need to keep pretending long enough to vanish. CADOR – I see the living. I see the dead. I see the ones trying very hard not to be either. My new bride is none of them. A void where a soul should glow. A silence shaped like a woman. My ravens call her sister, and perhaps I should fear her. I don’t. She’s hiding something impossible, and she’s exhausted from holding it alone. I want to know what happens when she finally lets herself rest.      AmazonKU

THE WORLD’S WIMPIEST VAMPIRE (SUPERNATURAL SUCKERS BOOK TWO) by Silvana Falcon

VS note: MM PNR.

The world’s wimpiest vampire meets the hunter who cannot believe this is their target. Charlie never asked to be turned into a vampire. In fact, the whole thing was a drunken mistake. One minute, he was minding his own business, the next, some idiot vampire bit him on a dare—and then immediately regretted it and abandoned him. Now Charlie is very bad at being undead. He faints at the sight of blood, refuses to bite people, and spends his days trying to survive on beet juice, cherry Kool-Aid, and sheer denial. The vampire world wants nothing to do with him, and honestly? He gets it. Simon is a seasoned vampire hunter. Ruthless, efficient, and completely dedicated to the cause, he’s spent years taking down deadly creatures of the night. When he finally tracks down Charlie Dracul, he expects a monster. Instead, he finds a sleep-deprived disaster with ketchup on his hoodie who nearly passes out when he pulls out a stake. Simon should end this embarrassment of a vampire immediately. But it feels unsporting. And, worse, the longer he watches Charlie bumble his way through undead existence, the harder it is to look away. Killing monsters is easy. Figuring out what to do with a vampire who sucks at being a vampire? That’s another problem entirely.      AmazonKU      AB

BOUND TO THE VAMPIRE (HILLCREST HOLLOW SHIFTERS BOOK FOUR) by Vala Stone

Jade – Jade Whitaker only came to town to restore a crumbling library, not lose herself in a man with a voice like velvet and eyes like midnight. Luther runs the general store, always has what she needs, and somehow makes dusty archives feel like foreplay. She tells herself it’s just the isolation, the mystery of the town, but her pulse says otherwise. There’s something unnatural about Luther: too smooth, too still, too good at disappearing after dark. And when Jade stumbles across forbidden texts and records that don’t match reality, the spark between them threatens to ignite something far more dangerous than lust. Luther – Luther has spent centuries mastering restraint. But Jade tests his limits from the moment she walks into town; sharp-tongued, soft-hearted, and smelling faintly of old books and temptation. He knows the risks of pulling her close: exposure, bloodshed, the unraveling of a delicate peace. But one taste of her laughter, one flash of those curious eyes, and he’s already losing control. He was never supposed to fall. She was never supposed to stay. But in a town built on secrets, desire might be the deadliest one of all. He’s not just drawn to her—he hungers. She’s not just uncovering history—she’s waking it. And neither of them is ready for what’s about to rise.   AmazonKU

However the more she and Theo investigate, Cynthia uncovers a surprising link between the two incidents. The museum theft and murder are part of a larger equation—one that includes deadly enchantments, rumored pirate treasure, a peculiar plant, and a dire threat to the space program as well as everything she holds dear.

A WAR OF WITCHES (WITCH WARS BOOK TWO) by Suzanne Snowden

What if witches went to war in modern day Washington, D.C.? Dr. Adam Parrish thought things couldn’t get worse than 2025 Washington, D.C… but then on the first day of the new year, he revealed the secret of witchcraft to the world and suddenly things got much worse. He expected gratitude for the cancer-preventing vaccine witches developed. Instead, he got fear, fury, and a political firestorm. Mortals are terrified. Rogue witch factions want him dead for exposing their world. And his old enemy Andrew Barry is threatening Adam’s wife Vivienne and her fourteen-year-old granddaughter Alice—both time travelers from 1502 with rare magic Barry will kill to possess. While Vivienne travels to the Vatican to change hearts and minds at the highest levels, Adam faces down a hostile Congress. His best friend Samuel finds himself falling for witch advocate Louise Carmichael, even as her son Connor becomes a target of the very factions Louise is trying to calm. And Alice, still struggling to find her place in the modern world, is torn between the family she’s building here and the temptation to return to the only home she’s ever known. As enemies close in from every direction and passion ignites in unexpected places, can they survive long enough to bridge the gap between witches and mortals… or will fear destroy everything they’re fighting for?      Amazon

When Eden and her best friend, Debbie, embarked on a three-day retreat for some much-needed relaxation, Eden never anticipated the whirlwind romance that would ignite between Debbie and Richard, the leader of the retreat.

Eden’s account of events was riddled with emotional pain and confusion, yet something deeper seemed to pulse beneath the surface—something much darker …This was no ordinary case; it required a perspective that transcended the obvious, a journey into the unknown, where love and danger intertwined.

THE RED CROWN (KNIGHTS OF CALIBURN UNIVERSITY BOOK THREE) by Jade R Evans

So much is broken. But the men who rule the Knights of Caliburn—the ancient order my four protectors answer to—don’t know that. The White Brothers of St. Vincent have no idea what their sworn knights have done for me: vows abandoned, blood spilled, a sacred mission twisted beyond recognition. And time is running out. Kingston is fracturing under the weight of his choices. Kai’s playing a dangerous game with men who never lose. Lanz is fading in ways that terrify me. And Callahan—steady, loyal Callahan—is being tested in ways that could shatter us from the inside. We can’t hide for long. Because something else, something bigger, is holding Caliburn’s campus frozen. And there are older powers stirring. A lady in the lake. A riddle with no easy answer. And a question I’ve been running from my entire life. Who do you think you are? I’ve spent so long hiding. Apologetic. Trying to just be normal. But when fire and reckoning come to Caliburn, no one else can answer for me. Not my knights. Not my enemies. Not even God himself. Only me.   AmazonKU

THE ENFORCERS (THE INFERNO SAGA BOOK TWO) by M K Michelle

Five years ago, I was found outside the Council District’s barrier with no memory of what came before. Now I’m trapped inside it, angry, confused, and drowning in half-truths. I don’t know who I can trust, but I can’t ignore what I feel. The bond between us is undeniable, an ache that never stops, but how can I trust them after what they hid? They knew what I was to them. They felt the same pull and said nothing, letting me believe my emotions were spiralling out of control, letting me think something was wrong with me. I try to keep them out, to push them away, but they’re not willing to go down without a fight. And when the enforcers start revealing their truths, their pasts, and the tragedies that shaped them, everything begins to shift. The more I learn, the more I understand their choices, their loyalty to each other, and the strange, impossible way I fit into their fractured unit. We’re still hunting the Green Cloaks, still chasing down the pieces of my past as we try to mend the cracks between us. But none of us is ready for the truths we uncover. Not when the truth hurts them more than it ever hurt me. The Enforcers is book 2 of The Inferno Sage, it is a reverse harem supernatural romance. Medium burn with grovelling, yearning and heat.      AmazonKU

OH NO, THERE’S AN IFRIT IN MY COSMIC SAFE  (GETTING COZY WITH DEMONS BOOK TWO) by Ember Holt

I astral projected to cheat at poker and landed myself in witness protection with a brooding fire demon. Oops. Now my family’s hiding out in northern Maine in a busted-up café my brother won in a shady bet. The place is a disaster: cursed sugar jars, haunted espresso machine, and oh yeah…a smoldering Ifrit who runs the interdimensional bar behind the walk-in freezer. He’s all fire, fury, and don’t-touch-my-cups energy, and we clash over everything. We share a dangerously thin veil between realms we’re determined to fix—since we don’t want to see any more of each other than we have to. But when a pissed off mob mage sends his goons looking for me, suddenly Mr. Smoke-and-Glare decides I’m his problem to protect. The longer I stay, the more I want to know what it’d feel like to melt under him. He might be bound to the bar, but I’m bound to him by something else entirely: temptation, tension and the growing certainty that this fiery demon might be the only one who can keep my family alive. If he doesn’t burn my sanity (or my panties) to ash first.      AmazonKU

A life-or-death entanglement with Leland means Ember must find a way to convince Everden she isn’t a threat, or Leland will suffer. But, haunted by a feeling that something is incalculably wrong with her, Ember will first have to stop being her own worst advocate and convince herself—then the realm—that she belongs.        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 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!
