Genre: Fantasy Romance, Science Fiction Romance
Book Blurb:
Solace Goodeve, one of Mother Nature’s favorite Fae Warriors, is assigned to Earth to help save the planet. Reptile invaders, disguising themselves as humans, are waging a takeover—and Mother is mad enough to eat asteroids. Solace is ready to prove herself as a warrior, but having a human for a partner is not in her battle plan—even if the man is rugged, ripped, and ready for action.
Army Ranger, Tanner Jackson, has seen his share of black op missions. The last one took a toll on both body and soul. Tanner isn’t looking for love, even though his new partner is six-foot-tall and drop dead gorgeous. However, after Solace shows him a new meaning to working undercover, he may have to reconsider that possibility.
As the Reps plan to sabotage NOAA, Tanner and Solace must learn to trust one another. But as they're trying to save the world, Solace and Tanner might just lose their hearts—and that takes the most courage of all.
Excerpt:
The hero: There must be some mistake. The man striding toward her couldn’t be Tanner Jackson. Dressed in a black t-shirt, camo cargo pants, and rugged lace up boots, he looked ready for a special ops mission, not a day of wrestling with math figures and scientific data. Tall and well-muscled, he appeared rock solid, like he belonged in the age of Athena. In fact, he seemed so overwhelmingly masculine, she worried he might not be human. That gave her pause. Had the Reps already established a man on the inside?
Other than Reps, she had nothing against alternate species, including humans. She just liked to know for sure with whom or what she was dealing. Double standard of course, as she had no intentions of letting this man know her Fae status.
His dark brown hair, well beyond regulation length, curled past the nape of his neck, and even darker brown eyes studied her as he drew near. He halted before her, his arms crossed over his broad chest, his stance slightly spread to give maximum stability. Without a word, he reached for the I.D. dangling from the strap around her neck.
The Enemy: Her tactical training insured she could hold her own anytime, anyplace. But the psychological effect of confronting a beast who wore scaly body armor like a three piece suit, and outweighed her by two hundred pounds constituted another matter altogether. She fired her laser weapon. The blast hit his shoulder, and a sizzling noise filled the air, followed by the smell of meat cooking. The wound barely slowed him down. The Rep’s tail whipped around, coming straight at her. She did a tuck and roll. Not quick enough. The disgusting appendage grazed the top of her head, burning like fire. Energized by the pain, she rounded on him, blasting away at his injured shoulder. His arm came off, and with a howl of rage and pain, he clamped his remaining hand over the gaping wound, green blood flowing in rivulets between his clawed fingers. If he lived, he could re-grow the arm. Frigging Reptiles could regenerate every appendage except their heads.
