Here’s the weekly post from my author blog on the new releases I found to be of interest in my three favorite romance genres (which are also the ones I write in!), and related areas such as time travel, steampunk, paranormal cozy romances and more. I do sometimes cover other releases of note in science fiction and fantasy. As always, I recommend sampling before you buy! I have not read most of the new releases listed (although I always end up one-clicking a bunch as I prepare these posts). I don’t pick up every single new release each week but try to provide a representative subset and lots of choices. Here’s a teaser for this week’s first two books (jump to the blog to see the approximately 55+ titles featured this week):CRASH COURSE (CLASS FIVE SERIES BOOK SEVEN) by Michelle DienerVS Note: I LOVE her Class 5 series so I preordered this for sure!A logistics problem just became a conspiracy . . . Fiona Russell is overseeing the logistics for Paxe’s rebuild of his Class 5 battleship, but when the slow delivery of parts dries up to nothing, she’s forced to go down to Balco, the planet beneath the way station she controls, and find the root cause of the problem. The trouble is, she more or less took Larga Ways from the Balcoans in an audacious power move the year before, and some of them are still not over it. Strange maneuvers on the border just became a flirtation with war . . . Grihan battleship captain Hal Vakeri’s job is to patrol the space boundary between the Grih and the Garmman, but when his ship picks up huge ships on the Garmman side, only for them to disappear faster than any ship should be able to, he realizes there’s a problem. Either the Garmman are playing games, or they’re getting more serious than the Grih are ready for. And both issues are about to come crashing down around them . . . When it becomes clear that Fee and Hal’s problems have the same players at their core, they’ll be forced to walk the line between diplomacy and conflict, and hope that Larga Ways is still standing at the end of it. DRAGON’S HEART (DRAGONS ON MARS BOOK TWO) by Honey PhillipsAll she wanted was to be left alone. Now, he’s her only chance for survival. Jaz came to the Martian pole for solitude, not company. Especially not the company of a seven-foot-tall alien who just turned her mining rig into a scrap heap in a fit of primal rage. Ajar is a creature of ice and fury, a dragon awakened from a frozen tomb, wounded and cornered. And thanks to the blizzard of the century, he’s her new roommate. As Jaz reluctantly nurses him back to health, his defensive rage gives way to an unexpected vulnerability. She sees the lost soul trapped within the scales, and her hardened heart begins to melt. When a corporate hunting party arrives to claim their prize, Jaz and Adjar forge a desperate alliance. He may have destroyed her past, but he’s the only one who can protect her future.
