The Queen's Assassin Mar 26, 2020

by Jaymi Hanako

$2.99

Killing was his life. Then he met the one woman he could not destroy…
It was supposed to be an easy job. Get in, assassinate the queen, and get out. Things didn’t go as planned and now Madoc is chained in the royal dungeon, fighting his unwelcome attraction to the woman who defeated him: the queen’s bodyguard, Raine. When she interrogates him, he propositions her: He’ll tell her what he knows if she’ll spend one night of passion with him.

Deception and deceit have kept her alive. Yet one man tempts her to lower her guard…
Raine isn’t just a bodyguard, she’s the queen hiding behind an enchanted disguise. Turmoil over the succession has threatened her country for years. Her priorities should be to find herself a proper consort and ensure the continuation of her line. She shouldn’t be charmed by a deadly assassin with a sharp tongue and a sharper wit, no matter how her body burns for his…

One night will never be enough for either of them, but the shadowy conspiracy that looms over Raine’s throne hasn’t ended. She’ll need magic—and all the power of her unlikely connection with her would-be killer—to keep what is hers.

(Author’s Note: This book was previously published. It has been lightly revised and updated from the last version.)

Phoenix Rising: Star Racers and Rogues, Book 2 Nov 10, 2017

by Jaymi Hanako

$3.99

He broke her heart. Now his life is in her hands…

Project Phoenix. Secret. Illegal. Crossing the line between life and death.

If Dr. Elisa Nakano refuses to join, she’ll lose her job. If the truth about the project becomes public, she’ll lose her career. But if the experiment fails, she’ll have to watch the man she loves die again. And if it succeeds, she has no reason to believe that he’ll stay…

Asteroid racing was a young man’s game. A single man’s game. Falling in love was a distraction, one Dante Goshawk knew he couldn’t afford. So when his relationship with a brilliant scientist grew too intense, he broke it off. And ended up dying anyway. Now that he's back from the dead, he realizes the woman he pushed away is the only one he’s ever loved. But Elisa isn't so eager to give him another chance.

The clock is ticking on Dante’s recovery. A new experiment, an android pilot designed for the asteroid racing circuit, needs his memories and his consciousness to make it complete. And some are willing to kill--again--to make the technological leap a reality.

Though Phoenix Rising is the second book in the series, it follows a different set of characters from the first book and can be read as a stand-alone.

Leaving him behind the first time nearly destroyed her. Making a permanent return means possibly forfeiting Ty’s life. But as deception and violence flare up all around her, there is no one else that Malkyn can trust. Will their bond be enough to save their world and their love?

by Jaymi Hanako

$3.99

Jaren wants just one last thing from the Ranvara system: to finalize his divorce from the woman who tried to kill him. When he discovers that the young woman who saved him—his former wife’s personal slave—is about to be auctioned off, he knows he can’t leave her behind. His only intention is to buy her freedom, but the position she is being offered up for means that things aren’t quite as simple as he had hoped.

Taimi thought she had made peace with her fate, willing to pay any personal price as long as she knows Jaren is alive and safe. When he buys her contract, she thinks it’s a dream come true. But after the one night together required by the slave market, he makes it clear that she has no place in his life as a lover. She can either join the crew of his spaceship as an employee or say good-bye to him forever.

Then Jaren’s ex-wife breaks out of prison. Suspecting that Jaren and Taimi might have assisted her in her escape, Ranvaran officials impound Jaren’s ship, leaving them stranded. Vulnerable to a mad sorceress’ revenge—and their own growing feelings.
