I gave into Zayden but it got me nowhere. He was more controlling then ever and it was all part of the contract. I should have read it better. Will I be able to stand my ground or will I continue to give in? Views: 20
Revolution rises!
The Interstellar Empire of Man was built on the enslavement of the gentle
Stardogs, companions and Theta-space transporters of the vanished Denaari Dominion.
But the Stardogs that humans found can't go home to breed, and are slowly
dying out.
As the ruthless Empire collapses from its rotten core outward, an Imperial
barge is trapped on top of a dying Stardog when an attempted hijacking and
assassination go horribly wrong. Trying to save its human cargo, the Stardog
flees to the last place anyone expected - the long-lost Denaari motherworld.
Crawling from the crash are the Leaguesmen who control the Stardogs' pilots by
fear and force, and plan to assassinate Princess Shari, the criminal Yak
gang, who want to kill everyone and take control of a rare Stardog for their
own, and an entourage riddled with plots, poisons, and treason. But Shari and
her assassin-bodyguard have plans of their own...
Stranded on the Denaari Motherworld, the castaway survivors will have to
cooperate to survive. Some will have to die.
And some, if they make it to the Stardog's breeding ground, will have to learn what
it means to love.

EXPOSURE (Kyle and Alice)
Alice Newton doesn\'t live the college life she\'d expected or hoped for. She\'s just lost yet another job, her college workload is mounting, and she\'s about to find herself homeless because she can\'t pay her rent. It\'s all in marked contrast to her best friend Tess, and seemingly everyone else on campus, whose parents can pay for everything. Alice, unfortunately, doesn\'t have that luxury.
Kyle Logan runs a club, a club offering very specific services. One of his best \'workers\', Jenny, has just run out on a client, leaving Kyle on the hunt to track her down. The path leads him to Jenny\'s empty dorm room, a dorm she vanished from during the night, much to her room-mates confusion. That room-mate just happens to be Alice Newton.
When Kyle comes knocking, the seeds for a mutually beneficial relationship are sewn. And, just as a bonus, Kyle is just about the most delectable man Alice has ever laid eyes on. Those eyes, that square jaw, those dimpled cheeks. He\'s irresistible.
The question Alice needs to ask herself is: how much is she willing to risk to build the life she\'s always dreamed of, and is Kyle really all he seems?
The answers, and the results that lead from them, might just change her life forever, for better, or for worse.

Gemma Watson knew Zack in high school, and they were best friends before Zack was expelled and ripped from her grasp. When she meets Cade in the gym years later, she thinks it\'s Zack and is drawn towards him. Sucked in like every other girl in town, Gemma and Cade soon start a fast relationship, bringing her back into contact with the first boy she ever cared for...the first boy she ever kissed – Zack.
But when Gemma\'s boss, editor of a national lifestyle magazine, steps in, Gemma is put in a position where her loyalty to both brothers will be sorely tested. With a big promotion dangling in front of her eyes, and the biggest fight of Cade\'s boxing career on the horizon, everything builds to a crescendo, where pain, betrayal, and local scandal hang in the balance.
ADDICTED TO YOU (Jude and Amy)
Sometimes you can\'t keep running from the ghosts of your past...sometimes you have to turn and confront them.
That\'s what Amy O\'Brien thinks when she returns to the city of Branton after a 3 year absence. She left because of her father, because of what happened, because of who he was, but now it\'s time to put the past where it belongs, and move on.
When she meets Jude Logan, the youngest of the Logan brothers, her short stay in town takes a completely new turn. They meet under false names, neither of them knowing the significance of who they\'re with – the two families, the Logan\'s and the O\'Briens, share an unsavory past.
After a night of passion, Amy leaves Jude alone, in the hotel room they stayed at. For her its a single night encounter, nothing more. She\'s lived her life on the road for years, never letting anyone in, never allowing anyone through her defences.
For Jude, however, its more than that. She\'s his addiction, and he needs more. When he comes across her again, they still don\'t know who each other really are, until Conor O\'Brien, Amy\'s father, steps in. And he\'s the last person in the city whose daughter you want to be pursuing.
