An out-of-solar system colony project gone wrong meant Jessie English was stuck doing most of the work assigned to the deceased science crew. Sticking to his morals meant being left for dead by those in charge. By chance, he meets Luc, a member of the planet's sentient avian humanoid species. All Jessie wants to do now is live out the rest of his days with him, and hopefully get past the language barrier that prevents him from communicating the feelings of love he hopes are mutual. Unfortunately, sightings of a human and an alien together are more interesting to the colony's higher-ups than one would hope. *** Born the runt of his clutch, Luc had never held anyone so small, so soft... He was all Jessie had, so he would do everything to shield him from others of his kind, and by extension, protect the whole human race. -------- AVIAN has been COMPLETED on the writer's end (30 chapters + five bonus stories) and is on a bi-weekly upload schedule.

Shannon Cole has always survived by noticing what others miss. Numbers stick. Faces linger. Conversations don't fade. In the hood, that kind of mind doesn't stay unnoticed-it gets used. Shannon has become a quiet resource, passed between crews whenever something needs remembering, calculating, or confirming. He tells himself it's temporary. Just helping. Just staying afloat. Until everyone wants him. As gangs begin circling closer, access to Shannon turns into competition-and then into risk. Because when too many people want what you know, someone eventually decides you're too valuable to share. Tiger Laurent doesn't compete. He decides. Tiger runs things with calm precision, and when he claims Shannon, it isn't curiosity-it's control. Pulled out of circulation and placed under Tiger's watch, Shannon finds himself safer than he's ever been-and more trapped than he imagined possible. Protection blurs into possession. Use starts to feel permanent. And the more indispensable Shannon becomes, the harder it is to tell whether he's being kept alive... or quietly erased.

BOOK TWO OF SIX IN THE ANGELS AND DEVILS SERIES. - OCTAVIUS EVERHEART: P.S: I spilled my fucking guts to the guy who haunts my every thought, and now he knows I'm in love with him. Send help! No one was coming to save me from the unhealthy way I avoid emotions. I was on my own. I didn't know what I wanted anymore. I never knew. Not since that humiliating moment in high school. When I tried to ask a horrified Onyx Steele to prom. I'm not supposed to hate him for turning me down as gently as he could. In front of everyone. Or the way he looked absolutely horrified when he saw what I'd done. But as the years passed, and I hissed at him through them, Onyx hits his breaking point. His breaking point? The boy he was bonded to. The one I have a deeper, unjustifiable unlike for. And when he tried to help? I pounced. It was more than they saw. I've known Onyx longer than he had. But after I end up getting told by Onyx that he was done giving me the attention I sought, I bent in half more. So, when he came to try once more with me. I told him. Everything. More than I should have. I just snapped. I don't want to be in love with him, so I told him in hopes he'd free me. Except, Onyx seems determined to fix things. It starts with the most insane grand gesture known to mankind. And it puts the man who despises being the center of attention, right at the goddamn epicenter.
