Torn between an alien prince and his brother? That sounds just like Lexi’s luck.

Lexi Seymour thinks she’s seen it all when she finds herself in an arranged marriage. And she hasn’t even met the groom yet…

When she first sets eyes on him at the engagement ball, only one thought pops into her mind: Is it even legal to marry a teenage alien?

And then, another one: Why does his brother seem like a way better option?

Sure, she wants to help Earth keep the peace, but what about her peace of mind?

That arrogant, blue-scaled alien prince and his wicked grin sure are messing with it…

Too bad his attraction to Lexi is too strong to resist.

He has no clue how this happened, but convincing her that she’s his fated mate seems harder and more urgent than ending an impending intergalactic war.

You’d do well not to peel them back.”

An innocent pawn in a ruthless game.

Damien becomes the protector I never knew I needed.

And his resolve to annihilate my enemies…. MERCILESS.

Maggie Armstrong grew up enchanted by her father’s tales of blood feuds and border raids. In fact, she could have easily fallen for the man portrayed in one particular image in his portrait collection. Yet when her father reveals he was himself an infamous Border reiver, she finds it a bit far-fetched—to say the least—especially when he announces his plans to return to his sixteenth century Scottish home with her in tow. Suspecting it’s just his way of getting her to accompany him on yet another archaeological dig, Maggie agrees to the expedition, only to find herself transported four hundred and fifty years into the past. Though a bit disoriented at first, she discovers her father’s world to be every bit as exciting as his stories, particularly when she’s introduced to Ian Rutherford, the charming son of a neighboring laird. However, when her uncle announces her betrothal to Ian, Maggie’s twentieth-century sensibilities are outraged. She hardly even knows the man. But a refusal of his affections could ignite a blood feud. Maggie’s worlds are colliding. Though she’s found the family she always wanted, the sixteenth century is a dangerous place. Betrayal, treachery, and a tragic murder have her questioning whether she should remain or try to make her way back to her own time. To make matters worse, tensions escalate when she stumbles across Bonnie Will Foster, the dashing young man in her father’s portrait collection, only to learn he is a dreaded Englishman. But could he be the hero she’s always dreamed him to be? Or will his need for revenge against Ian shatter more than her heart?
