Nobek Kuran is keeping secrets from Stacy.
* * * *
Kuran cursed himself, though he kept his expression pleasant. He slid in the pilot’s seat of the shuttle and fired the engine as if nothing off had occurred, but he hadn’t missed the searching look Stacy had given him.
He hated keeping secrets from those he cared for, particularly his would-be Matara. Becoming a spy for the Kalquorian fleet had been his best means of keeping her safe from potential attackers, however. Spying meant hiding much of what he knew.
Bryant had bigger secrets and was a bigger threat than Stacy realized. He was behind attacks on her and the Kalquorian space station orbiting Earth II, which assisted the newly populated planet. Only Bryant’s potential connections to those who might be part of a treasonous collective kept Kuran from hauling him in for a “talk.”
Kuran agreed thus far with Admiral Piras’ orders to hold off on arresting Bryant and subjecting him to interrogation. If the bastard set off another attack on Stacy, however, Kuran might choose to bring him in before alerting his superiors.
He lifted off and glanced at her, taking in the dark-eyed, black-haired beauty at his side. She’d quit studying him to bring out her handheld computer, no doubt reviewing her campaign speech again. Love surged in his fierce warrior’s heart. He hadn’t come to Earth II in hopes of finding a female for his clan, but that’s what had happened. Beyond her sexiness, she possessed a brilliant mind. He’d do anything to keep her safe.
No one fucked with his woman.

Time
is running out to halt the Darks’ march to the Kalquorian Empire’s
annihilation.
Finally home on Kalquor, Dramok Ilid is haunted by his encounter with the Darks, which he barely survived. His struggle far from over, Ilid’s sanity and the empire’s existence hang on a quickly unraveling thread. When he learns the Darks have arrived on Kalquor, even his family’s love may not be able to keep him from an unthinkable end.
On Earth II, head of planetary security Nobek Kuran’s hands are full: meeting his potential in-laws, training his replacement, and keeping tabs on a rogue lieutenant governor with a secret agenda. His troubles are only beginning when a deadly attack on those he loves drives him to the brink of murder. Meanwhile, spy Nobek Selt finds himself growing far too close to his subject, reporter Blythe Nelson. Does his clan dare to romance a woman devoted to uncovering the truth, including their secret activities on her world?
Having wiped out the entire Bi’is civilization, the Darks have seized control of the Galactic Council of Planets and attempt to bring the Kalquorian Empire to its knees. Clans Tranis and Piras are desperate to stop the enemy from destroying Kalquor and its allies. Can Hope Nath and Chief Engineer Lokmi capture a lethal enemy capable of passing through all known barriers?
Releasing January 26
