'Petra darted across the room and parted the curtains. "Enjoy it," she advised. "You would not want to live without it."'
One unforgettable midsummer night, a colony of aliens beams down onto Earth, bent on discovering as much as they can about our planet before they attack. They look like humans, but they don't sound or smell like them, and the rules of their world follow an entirely different code. Regular Earthling Simon Delaney meets one of the advance Scouts - Pet-Ra Eight, and unwittingly sets out to teach her about his world, unaware that he is paving the path for an invasion. All over the world, similar scenes are being played out as the Watchers gradually worm their way into unsuspecting human lives. But the difference is, Petra is also slowly beginning to trust him. When loyalties are divided and people who once trusted each other implicitly are played off against one another in a raging mental war against humankind, will Simon choose Petra . . . or his planet? And, most importantly, which way will Petra decide? Will she choose to protect Simon, or retreat naturally into the warlike disposition of her own kind? The fate of the world hangs in the balance with a single resolution . . .
Around the world, in New York, Tokyo, Moscow, similar paths are being paved out by very different characters, each bound by the ties of a decision they must make if they are to achieve their ultimate goal . . . and to prevent their faith from wavering in the Ultimate ruler, the supreme Overlord.

Star Kissed
When Mandy loses her job, she thinks she’s hit rock bottom – until her plane is swallowed by a strange storm that sends her and everyone else on board 10,000 years into the future. At first, she thinks the scary world is nothing more than a bad dream. The war-torn Earth is unrecognizable. Black fog blocks the sun, and the oceans are dry. Even worse: the planet is inhabited by half-human, half-alien creatures dying from a mysterious disease. Horrified at the thought of spending her life here, she clings to the knowledge that there’s one man who can open the star gate to send her home. As the Naki prince who controls the star gate, Akkadi gets first choice of any human female that makes her way through the star gate. Only by breeding with purebred humans from the past can his race hope to remain immune to the disease and hopefully, develop an eventual cure. With shrinking resources and a raging battle for the human planet, dutiful, commanding Akkadi is less than thrilled at the idea of trying to figure out Mandy, a woman he views as wild with neither discipline nor respect for someone in his position. He’s ready to write her off, when she offers him something too tempting to resist: her body for the chance to convince him by any means possible to send her home. Neither intends for the arrangement to be permanent or to fall for the other. Only when Mandy learns Akkadi’s secret and walks away does he realize he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her – even if it means losing his war.Complete
