Seven
years ago, a single moment changed the course of Nicholaus Bock’s life
forever—the moment his preternatural Gift to heal awakened in him. A gift that
made him an invaluable commodity to the known galaxy. Now his mentor’s
intriguing and secretive new student goes out of her way to challenge his
loyalty to everything he values.
A dark
secret…
After
facing death and destruction during the Anferthian invasion, Sakura Yamata
revels in her new-found Gift to heal. Helping Earth’s survivors keeps her mind
off the loss of her family, and the memory of the terrible choices she made.
Nick could penetrate her defenses and discover what she’s hiding. She must not
let the handsome healer close enough for that to happen.
A race
facing annihilation…
When
a mysterious disease strikes the hidden sanctuary of the Anferthian dissenters,
Nick and Sakura are called in to help. But someone is going to great lengths to
ensure the dissenters don’t survive. Nick and Sakura must set aside their
differences and work together to save them before the fragile peace between
three worlds is shattered.

Kirk loves to transport her readers to other worlds with her science fiction
romances. Her fascination with science fiction began at six years old when her
dad introduced her to the original Star Trek TV series. She fell in love with
the show, and was even known to run through her parents’ house wearing the
tunic top of her red knit pantsuit and her white go-go boots pretending to be
Lieutenant Uhura.
In
January of 2016, she published her well-received debut novel, Prophecy, Book One of the Prophecy Series.
She followed that up in April with a short story, All of Me, set in the Prophecy Series universe. Another short
story, Space Ranger, will be released
October 11, 2016 as part of the Pets in
Space Anthology. Salvation, her
second full-length novel comes out a week later. The third book in her series, Collision, is scheduled for 2017.
Ms.
Kirk lives in Northern California with her wonderful hubby of twenty-six years,
their five kids (aka, the nerd herd), and a whole slew of characters just
itching to have their stories told!

His already unusual mission becomes more complicated when he suddenly acquires an adorable StarDog that soon sweeps him and Adini into the maw of a brewing insurrection.
SPIKE
By Alexis Glynn Latner
Young Roboticist Ten Jaxdown has to deploy, and possibly sacrifice, the swarm of investigative robots that he has invented and cares about more than anything else in the star system. It may be the only hope for those depending on him and his robots to save them. Yet, even as frantic preparations for the unprecedented deep-space rescue mission are set in motion, it could all be threatened by sabotage.
Anastasia Steed is an intrepid young mission designer. She steps forward with an idea that can improve the odds of the mission. Neither she nor Ten expect the assistance they receive from a very unusual pet. A pet that will bring together two alienated human beings who didn’t realize they needed each other. Can Ten and Anastasia discover who is behind the sabotage, save the mission, and discover what is evolving between them? With a little bit of unusual help, anything is possible.
SPACE RANGER
By Lea Kirk
Graig Roble is the Senior Commander of security for the Guardian Fleet. His expertise as a weapons specialist and combat master is his world, what he was born to do – or so he thought until he finds his resolve and focus inexplicably wavering. Even returning to his position aboard the Atlantis can’t save him; if anything, it has left him questioning his own motives. He never thought that could happen until he met Simone Campbell.
Simone's focus is on her home world - Earth. She thought her life was full with her research as a botanist. After all, she always believed that helping the people of her world become self-sufficient should take all of her concentration - except it doesn't. There is one man that keeps pulling her attention, and her heart, away from her job.
Graig's gift of a puppy to keep her company does more than that, it keeps him in her dreams. How can such a simple gift bring her comfort and make her long for more? Graig and Simone are about to find out that sometimes love can blossom from the smallest, furriest ties.

Book Three of the Interstellar Rescue series is a bit of a departure from Donna S. Frelick's first two books in the series. This space opera noir adventure unfolds light years away from Earth, as supporting characters from earlier stories get their chance to tell the tale. Here's the blurb:
She thought she had the
toughest job in Rescue—
until the day she had
to convert a pirate into a hero.
Interstellar Rescue “conductor” Rayna Carver is deep
undercover on a slave ship bound for an isolated region of space when the ship
is attacked by pirates. Her liberator is Captain Sam Murphy, a man known in the
spacer bars to love only profit, adventure and women.
But Murphy hates a few things, too, chief among them
slavers. Will it be enough to gain his help for Rayna’s mission—ferreting out
two spies bent on sabotaging an arms factory to turn the tide in an alien civil
war?
Fools Rush In is available on pre-order from Amazon now.
