Argen’s Mate by Clarissa Lake @ clarissalake1 #RLFblog #NewRelease #SciFi #Romance
Clarissa Lake, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your book.
Argen’s Mate by Clarissa Lake
Genre Science Fiction Romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
Argen Trematu was home on leave at Farseek Brigade when the Sargan’s attacked his home world. With Farseek in ruins, Argen was captured and sold into slavery. Lieutenant Commander Trematu didn’t make such a good slave and landed him on the Julconi prison planet fighting in the pit. He thinks his life is over until he learns the Farseek Mercenaries were on the way to the rescue. Argen never thought landing on the prison world would be his lucky break.
Then me meets her on the rescue ship.
Zoey Addison was kidnapped from Earth and rescued by the Farseek Mercenaries. She joined the Mercenaries with her three friends because she had nowhere else to go. Her friends all found their soul mates among the crew and Zoey was feeling left out.
Until, dressed in rags and so dirty she could barely discern what color he was, Argen walks up to her table and takes her hand. The attraction between them all most crackles.
Why did you write this book?
This book is the culmination of the Farseek Mercenary Series: Commander’s Mate, Lieutenant’s Mate, Sahvin’s Mate, and Argen’s Mate. Then as a sampler of the series I added Faigon’s Mate as a freebie. I needed another series to keep readers interested after the Narovian Mates series. I wanted to create a little different twist on alien abduction romance and I started with the opening lines of Commander’s Mate.
What is your favorite genre to read?
Science fiction romance space opera.
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
It’s usually the hero of the book I am reading at any given time. I really have a soft spot for cyborg heroes.
What are you working on at the moment?
A mail order bride romance with a cyborg. It’s the second entry in my Narovian Interstellar Matchmaker series.
What books will we see from you in coming months?
I’m planning more steamy scifi romance set in the Narovian/Farseek UniverseWhere to buy Argen’s Mate

Clarissa Lake grew up watching Star Trek and reading Marvel Comics. She attended science fiction and fantasy conventions where she met many well-known science fiction authors and attended their readings and discussion panels. They included scifi greats Anne McCaffery, CJ Cherry, George RR Martin, Ben Bova, Timothy Zahn, Frederik Pohl, Orson Scot Card. While she loves scifi, she always thought there should be more romance so she started writing it hot and steamy.

Her Cyborg Champion by Anne Kane @annekane #RLFblog #NewRelease #SciFi
Anne Kane, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your book.
Her Cyborg Champion by Anne Kane
Genre SciFi Romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
An intergalactic game of hide and seek, with a sexy human female as the prize.
Zoe is five feet, six inches of green-eyed, red-haired militant activist. A deeply ingrained need to help those who can’t help themselves — human and otherwise — motivates her every move. She snuck into the Mailin ton research facility to investigate rumors of experiments being conducted on a rare and highly intelligent species of sentient mammals. Now she finds herself in need of help to rescue one very sick little battle rat.
Greyson is six and a half feet of ruggedly muscular cyborg with a penchant for violence. He loves to fight, and he fights to win. What he hates is being sent to the Mailon research facility on a petty errand. When he catches a glimpse of a former lover flitting around the facility like an impossibly sexy cat burglar, he is intrigued. What is the saucy little wench up to, and why is she stalking him through the corridors of the alien laboratory?
Why did you write this book?
This is the fourth book in my Cyborg series, Terras Five. Each story in the series inspires me to continue the saga. In this case, the appearance of a little creature known as a “Battle Rat” in the third book made me wonder about other creaures just like him. Sure enough, Book four gave me further insight into the Battle Rats.
What is your favorite genre to read?
It depends on what mood I’m in, but it’s usually paranormal, fantasy or science fiction romance.
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
Malcolm (Mal) Reynolds, the captain of the spaceship Serenity in the Firefly series is definitely my favorite fictional character. Need I say more? If you don’t understand, then you need to watch the series and the movie.
What are you working on at the moment?
Right now I’m working on a fantasy romance about a druid and a selkie, as well as the first book in a new urban fantasy series – The Hellhound Detective Agency
What books will we see from you in coming months?
I am hoping to have a revamped version of Selkie’s Seduction, which made a brief appearance at a publisher site that promptly folded. (Hopefully not because of my book) available in September. I’m also working on an Urban fantasy series where the hellhounds are the good guys, and possibly another Cyborg novella.Where to buy Her Cyborg Champion

Anne Kane lives in the beautiful Okanagan Valley with a bouncy little rescue dog who’s breed defies description, a cantankerous Himalayan cat, and too many fish to count. She spent many years trying to fit in and act normal, but finally gave up the effort. She started writing romance in 2008, and her fate was sealed when she won a publishing contract with Red Sage Publishing and just a month later Changeling Press accepted her first submission. Since then she had published more than thirty stories in a variety of sub-genres, all with a happily ever after.
Her hobbies, when she’s not playing with the characters in her head, include kayaking, hiking, swimming, playing guitar, singing and of course, reading.

Vordol’s Vow by Dena Garson @DenaGarson #RLFblog #SciFi #Romance
Dena Garson, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your book.
Vordol’s Vow by Dena Garson
Genre Sci-Fi Romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
A long time ago Vordol Silveira learned that if he wanted to become the best bodyguard in the galaxy he needed to keep everyone except his brothers at arm’s length. That vow served him well until he runs into the now grown-up daughter of his former mentor while working a security job aboard the LS Quantum.
Pitannah Lorento is a Quantum waitress who dreams of winning this year’s intergalactic burlesque competition in order to pay for her mother’s expensive medical treatment. Seeing Vordol again brings back years of unfulfilled desires – a distraction she doesn’t need. Yet, she’s no longer an awkward teenager and he is sexier than ever.
Vordol’s client’s safety has always come first but when Pitannah is threatened, his heart demands he make her priority. If he somehow manages to keep them both safe through the competition, his vow may become obsolete.
Why did you write this book?
Two reasons. One, there were several secondary characters in Rege’s Rescue that I wanted to follow up on to see how their stories turned out. And two, I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to write in the world that the ladies with SFR Shooting Stars created. The LS Quantum star cruiser was a fun setting to explore.
What is your favorite genre to read?
Romance. I hop between historical, paranormal, sci-fi, fantasy, and contemporary based on my mood.
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
Kinda depends on the day. I love so many – from Scooby Doo to Princess Leia to Mr. Darcy. There are just too many to pick only one!!
What are you working on at the moment?
I’m outlining another steampunk romance and finishing a contemporary romance.
What books will we see from you in coming months?
I plan to do a Christmas steampunk romance at the end of this year. And if I get my butt into gear and finish my contemporary, I’d like to release it by year end also.Where to buy Vordol’s Vow

Wherever Love Finds You by Laura Haley-McNeil @laurarmcneil #RLFblog #NewRelease #Contemporary Romance
Laura Haley-McNeil, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your book.
Wherever Love Finds You by Laura Haley-McNeil
Genre Contemporary Romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG13
It’s his game. He makes the rules. Rule number one – only he can break the rules.
Zach Lowe lives his life without relationships in business and personally. Getting involved doesn’t work well when you’re the Black Knight of Wall Street.
Ellora Duvall, the sweet kid who crushed on him in high school, waltzes into the world of corporate finance with the same wide eyed innocence she had in chemistry class. He hadn’t expected her to affect him the way she did, but he’s in control. A few weeks with Ellora will be pure pleasure, then he’ll move on. She’ll understand. He should, too.
Who broke his rules?
Why did you write this book?
I’ve wanted to write a brides series for years. I wanted to write stories where the characters fall in love and get married. One of the settings for this first is New York City, a place I adore. I devour books based in New York. As this story developed, I had to make sure what the characters said and did was typical of New York. These characters have been developing in the back of my mind until I had to stop what I was doing and just write the story. It was great fun writing the story and brought back a lot of memories.
What is your favorite genre to read? I have a couple. I love historical romances based in the south. I mean, who doesn’t want to marry Rhett Butler? And I love romantic suspense. Mr. and Mrs. Smith is one of my favorite movies. I love how Angelina Jolie is Brad Pitt’s equal.
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
I think I gave it away earlier, but I do adore Scarlett. She’s so strong and she loves her family. She can completely ignore what they think of her and know that it’s her responsibility to make sure they have food in their mouths and a roof over her head. She forges ahead with blinders on. Nothing sways her from her goals. I love that attitude.
What are you working on at the moment?
The 7th book of the Crystal Creek Series is with the copyeditor. I’m excited because it gave me a chance to rewrite the ending of a very famous musical. The famous musical totally has the wrong ending, and it gave me the opportunity to create a heroine with my favorite career. I hope to release the book in September. Now that the release date is in writing, I’d better release it in September. LOL!
What books will we see from you in coming months?
I’m working on another Crystal Creek Boxed Set which I hope to release in time for Christmas! Ho! Ho! Ho! And I’m about halfway through the 1st draft of the 2nd book in the Beaumont Brides Series which is set in my 2nd favorite city in the whole world—Charleston, South Carolina.Where to buy Wherever Love Finds You

Destiny of a Gargoyle by Chris Redding
Paranormal Romance Heat Level: PG
He was born in a time when magic ruled the Earth.
Gargoyles protected fairies from goblins. His family was a group of elite gargoyles who were assigned to protect a specific fairy. His father’s dereliction of that duty cursed his sons to become stone and wait.
Now reawakened in the twenty first century where no one believes in magic how is he going to convince his fairy that she is one and that she is in danger from a goblin?
He must do that without falling in love with her.
Why did you write this book?
I’ve had a fascination with gargoyles since I visited Notre Dame in Paris a few years ago. When I had the time to write it I’d just visited Ireland so I chose to have them be Irish gargoyles.
What is your favorite genre to read?
Paranormal Romance
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
Jim Beckett from Lisa Gardner’s The Perfect Husband. Just the mention of his name gives me chills because he was so bad.
What are you working on at the moment?
The third in the series, Calling of a Gargoyle. It’s about the last brother.
What books will we see from you in coming months?
Fate of a Gargoyle and Calling of a Gargoyle should be out in the next few months along with probably the first in a series of sweet romances set on an island in the Carribean called Matchmaker Island.Where to buy Destiny of a Gargoyle
