Can be read as a standalone. This is the third story in the Lavender Series, but it is more like a spinoff with none of the same characters. The first chapter is the same scene as the beginning of Lavendar & Ice, the first book in the series, but from Kyle Logan's point of view. Following the catastrophic end to his ship, the Phoenix, Logan finds himself and some others from his crew as prisoners on a ship full of an unknown alien race with shimmery copper skin, emerald eyes, and attitudes tough as steel. The ship captain is the most resilient and hard headed female Logan has ever come across. When a new threat arises, can Logan and the captain get past their language barrier and mistrust to save both of their crews? *My stories have romance as part of their plot, but no smut* The first half of the book is more about the adventure, the romance is a slow build.

When Manon,s father, the King, told her that he'd promised her away to the Beast King, she was terrified. Not for the reasons you might think, though. Being married to a Beast didn't scare her so much. No what scared her was the thought of what he might do to her once he learned that she didn't possess the charm and beauty that her two younger sisters were famous for. This is my version of beauty and the beast. It's inspired in part by a fairytale I read as a child, (I think it was called The Sun and the Moon). It's about a woman who got married to a man, who's face she was never allowed to see, but whom she had to share a bed with every night in the dark. Finally, I've added a bit of fur and fang to the story, so I hope you enjoy. Expert from the story: "You know you've been bad, don't you," he growls in my ear, and all I can do is nod soundlessly as my body starts to shiver at his proximity. He's standing flush up against my back. I feel the warmth of his big, solid body seeping into mine. And even though I know he's furious I can't prevent myself from quivering helplessly as he leans in even closer. Suddenly I feel his sharp canines scrape the delicate skin on my neck, making me shiver uncontrollably. I feel his hot, wet tongue sliding over my vein, almost as if he's tracking my pulse with his tongue. "I can taste your pulse underneath my tongue," he growls, spreading his hot breath against my neck and giving me goosebumps. "I feel you quivering beneath my body and I can hear your heart beating." He leans in and gently bites my ear. "Do you have any idea what that does to a beast?"
