When She’s Lonely by Ruby Dixon

When She’s Lonely by Ruby Dixon

Everyone says humans are safe on Risda III. Yeah, right. I was taken from Earth years ago and I’ve learned one thing – a flawed human is a dead human. So I keep my flaws to myself, and I focus on running my farm. At least, I try to. But when I (accidentally) burn the barn down, one of the local officials shows up to help me put it out. And when Khex learns my secrets, he decides that he’ll keep them. If I’ll go out on a date with him. Oh, this is going to end badly.

Wed to the Wild God by Ruby Dixon

Wed to the Wild God by Ruby Dixon

When I find a gorgeous stranger in an alley, covered in blood, you’d think the logical thing would be to go to the authorities. Not me. I take him home. I’ve got my reasons, though. See, Kassam is cursed with hedonism. He’s a god from another world, accidentally stuck in ours. Anyone (and everyone) around him falls under his spell. It’s impossible to resist. Like scratching an itch. And being around Kassam? Boy, do I itch. But trying to send the god home to his world is a near-impossible task. Between everyone we meet trying to kiss him and the gods of this world trying to get rid of… Read more.

Sam’s Secret by Ruby Dixon

Sam’s Secret by Ruby Dixon

Life has taught me that I can’t trust anyone. Not friends, not family. In the worst, darkest moments, no one can be counted on to have your back. Even a billion miles away from Earth, on a remote icy planet, I still feel alone. The only consolation? I haven’t resonated. It’s not that I don’t want love or children. I just can’t trust anyone, even myself. But then one day, my khui resonates, and it’s to the last guy I ever expected. In fact, I resonate so hard that my chest is singing its mating song before his does. That never… Read more.

He’s made it very clear that he doesn’t belong with us. But when I’m trapped at Juth’s side as the beach is invaded by monsters, everything changes. He talks to me instead of pointedly ignoring me. We become friends. Heck, we even share a few stolen kisses. And when the rescue party arrives, he announces to everyone that I’m his mate and he’s joining the tribe… Read more.

Bad Guy by Ruby Dixon

Bad Guy by Ruby Dixon

Crulden the Ruiner is the name of a fierce gladiator who’s broken the rules…and broken anyone that approaches. It’s *my* name. It’s a name that strikes fear into the hearts of all….all except the small human female who comes to clean my cell and glares at me the entire time. My new owners want things from me. They want me to play in their games. They want me to win battles for them. Well, I know what I want in return. I want her. And I don’t care who I have to destroy to get her. But Mina doesn’t want to be owned…and certainly not by one as terrible as me. How does a bad guy woo the girl when all he knows is death and destruction?
