Tempted by the Alien Mercenary

He was built to feed on fear, but I'm the only one who ever tempted him to feel.

Frederique

I woke in a shattered stasis pod, centuries too late, on a world drowning in water and secrets. My mission? Gone. My crew? Dust. And the only being who's kept me alive since then is an alien mercenary wrapped in living silver and danger. He's not just terrifying, he's mesmerizing.

I should keep my distance. I know better. But every time his dark gaze settles on me, every time that shifting symbiont flows over his skin like armor and art, I forget who I was supposed to be. His power should terrify me, but it tempts me. He tempts me.

Even when I discover the truth about my mission. Even when enemies rise and survival hangs by a thread... I still look at him and wonder what would happen if I let myself fall.

The Sineater

She calls me mercenary. Monster.
But she doesn't run.

I was sent to kill, not to feel. My symbiont craves agony like air, but her emotions, bright and tangled, taste like hope. I want her. Not just her body, but the calm in her thoughts, the fire in her fight. I want to protect that light, even as I know I'll destroy it.

But I am always hungry. Always feared.
And if I take what I want, I may never let her go...
Even if loving her is the one thing that could break me.

This is a standalone novel and the seventh book in the Monster Mercenary Mates series. This sci-fi monster romance features a darkly sinful ancient warrior, a plucky, bossy FMC, a mysterious animal sidekick, and a steamy HEA.
