Riley's Dragon

She fell in love with a voice in the dark.

Riley Markson has spent her whole life trying not to be noticed. As a communications officer aboard a generation ship, she is safest alone, hidden away from the crowds that make her chest close and her words tangle. Then a forbidden signal reaches her station, carrying the voice of a Zmaj warrior on a deadly alien planet.

Angota should never speak to an off-world human. The Order forbids contact, desire, and anything that could pull a warrior from duty. But Riley's shy courage slips past every rule he has ever obeyed. Across the stars, they become each other's secret comfort, impossible fantasy, and only safe place.

Until their harmless connection uncovers a conspiracy.

Someone aboard Riley's ship is sending hidden files to Tajss. Someone in Angota's Order is helping them. When her only friend vanishes, Riley is arrested, and Angota is tortured for protecting her name, the truth becomes terrifyingly clear.

They are going to crash the ship.

Riley was never trained to save thousands of lives. Angota was never supposed to betray the Order. But when sabotage rains fire from the sky, he uses forbidden ancient technology to find her escape pod and tears it open with his bare hands.

Now Riley is stranded in the only jungle on a desert planet, responsible for a handful of terrified survivors who do not trust the alien warrior she knows by voice, touch, and fate. The trees hunt. The Order is coming. The traitors who destroyed her world may still be alive.

And the male she thought she could never meet is the only one who can keep her alive.

Riley's Dragon is a steamy alien dragon romance featuring a forbidden voice-in-the-dark connection, a protective Zmaj warrior, a socially anxious heroine who finds her courage, crash landing survival, fated mates, found tribe, deadly alien jungle, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
