Can I risk my entire kingdom for one woman? En’Zal When Stella walks on stage my world stops. There is only the untouched human beauty that is up for sale. Our eyes meet and my mating instincts kick in. I must protect her. I will do everything in my power to keep that woman safe. I do not care that a rival king has purchased her. I do not care that stealing her will plunge the entire planet into war. Protecting the tiny human is all that matters. Stella I’ve been taken from Earth, probed, prodded, and sold to the highest bidder. It hasn’t been a great day. And then a hulking, scaled, fire-red alien cuts down my guards, swears to protect me, and flings me over his broad shoulders. Before I have a chance to protest he carries me off towards his giant palace. Turns out he’s a wealthy and powerful alien king, and he just risked everything. For little old me. I’m sure he wants something in return. Probably heirs. Little cute red alien heirs. En’Zal is handsome in a scary-scaled-alien kind of way, but I’m not cut out to be the alien king’s concubine. I need to run away. Before I succumb to his wishes… Protected by the Alien King is a standalone novella and part of the My Monster, My Protector series. This steamy sci-fi romance features a possessive alien king, a headstrong heroine, and a steamy HEA.

I can work with that… When I hear he’s a mercenary, I take a gamble, and offer him the sweetest of payment if he helps me escape. Once he has me alone, I soon discover that the price is much steeper than just my body. He might just demand my heart.

She’ll soon discover that she’s mine to protect, to spoil, and to pleasure. Those that seek to steal her from me will learn that nothing gets past a Kertinal in mating rut.
