Interstellar Brides: The Colony (German)

Wrongly imprisoned whistle-blower Rachel Pierce would rather take her chances with her court appeal than accept her place as the first Interstellar Bride destined for the Colony. She's stubborn and determined to seek justice-and her freedom-on Earth...but her mates are not willing to risk her life or her future on a system they believe to be both primitive and corrupt. Maxim of Prillon Prime fought ten long years in the Hive wars. Captured and tortured with his second, Ryston, they escaped only to be rejected by their own people and condemned to life on the Colony with the other "contaminated" cyborg warriors. As leader of Sector 3, it's Maxim's duty to set an example for his warriors and summon a bride. When she refuses transport, he can't allow her rejection to demoralize an entire planet of battle hardened but jaded warriors. Maxim and Ryston transport to Earth where they decide she's theirs and a maximum security human prison will not keep them apart. Getting Rachel to the Colony is only the first challenge they will face. Convincing their beautiful mate to surrender to not one, but two dominant warriors is another. Even if they can win her love, a new evil is rising on the Colony and someone close to Maxim will be its first victim. Maxim will be its second, unless Rachel's love and relentless pursuit of the truth proves strong enough to save him.

FBI Agent Kristin Webster has spent the last eight years tracking and taking down the worst of humanity. She's seen too much to believe she could ever trust a human man, but the promise of a perfect match through the Coalition's Interstellar Brides Program has her settling into the testing chair to be matched to her alien mate. But her match isn't a male from a distant planet, but two scarred Prillon warriors on the Colony. And when warriors begin to disappear, Kristin will take matters into her own hands. Captains Hunt and Tyran have been waiting too long for a mate to allow her to risk her life chasing evil. But their defiant little human won't listen. They are determined to tame her, claim her, keep her safe...no matter the cost.

There is nowhere to hide from a Hunter determined to find his mate. Single mother Lindsey Walters is a blogger and the love of her life is her four-year-old son, Wyatt. When a nearly fatal accident costs Wyatt dearly, Lindsey will do anything to save her son, even take the craziest assignment of her life--sneak aboard a freighter bound for the terrifying alien prison planet known as The Colony and find out the truth about what's happening to Earth's brave soldiers. A Hunter from Everis, Kiel was captured and tortured by the Hive before his banishment to the Colony.

But when his mark awakens and he shares dreams with an unknown woman, everything changes. When he finds her offered as the prize in the Colony's brutal fighting pits, he must fight for her with every ounce of strength he possesses, or risk losing her to another. Yet no matter how quickly Kiel claims her, seduces her and makes her his, Lindsey has secrets, and a bond in her heart that's even stronger than her desire for him. Lindsey knows she must break Kiel's heart or risk the life of her child. Her decision to leave will challenge everything Kiel knows about love and loss, family and forever.

Caroline Jane (CJ) Ellison is a gifted stock market analyst. When a deal on Wall Street goes wrong, she has no choice between prison and the Interstellar Bride Program. She leaves. She leaves Earth, her past and her mistakes behind. Her decision is a logical one, not an emotional one. Until she wakes up on another world, next to a giant Atlan Battlelord: her assigned mate, who refuses to accept her. Battlelord Rezzer is contaminated. Weakened. He was captured by the Hive, and there his soul was stolen from him, his very own beast. A mate is out of the question until he can become what he was born to be: a beast, her mate, her protector. Forced into the Bride Program against his will, Rezzer has no intention of taking possession of the beautiful, rebellious woman when she arrives on the colony. The Hive had taken his Beast, but not his honor. He vows to give her to another, a worthy man, a Beast who is unharmed—not hunted by the Hive, not part of a dangerous new experiment to win the war. CJ takes one look at the wounded warrior and knows she can never let him go. He is hers now, her perfect match. And if that means seducing the Beast or standing up to the Hive to save him...that's exactly what she'll do. She's lived by the rules her whole life. Now, with everything at stake, it's time to break them.

Battlelord Anghar has lived through hell as a prisoner of the hostile Hive. Convinced he will never be free, he chooses death rather than dishonor. When the Coalition reconnaissance team that was sent to kill him frees him instead, his long, painful journey back to being a true Atlane begins. A warrior proud of his beast, of his service in the war. But no amount of honor, bravery, or willpower in the world can save Anghar from a life of loneliness, an exile on the colony, along with the other "contaminated" warriors. And no amount of prayer to the gods will save him when the fever in his blood rises to a level he can no longer control with willpower alone—and the Atlane mating fever costs him the last spark of faith. Trapped in a cell awaiting execution, he has only one hope: a woman brave enough to tame his beast—and strong enough to defeat the demons that dwell in his mind and heart. Because he may have escaped the Hive...but they're far from finished with him.

Atlan Warlord Jorik guards the Coalition Fleet's Processing Center on Earth, protecting warriors and brides without mercy or distraction... until he sees Gabriela. She is everything the beast within him craves. Soft. Curved. Unafraid. He dreams of courting her properly, wooing her into accepting his beast's claim, and making her his-body and soul. Danger strikes and his beast takes control-resulting in his immediate removal from Earth. From Gabriela. Gabriela fell in love with an alien Warlord who fought to save her life, then disappeared, only to learn he was later killed in a battle with the Hive. She moves on with her life as best she can, with one beautiful reminder of their time together: a baby. When she learns Jorik isn't dead, but banished to the Colony, she and the baby are sent to find him. The problem? He's not just contaminated, he's been newly matched by the Interstellar Brides Program. And not to her.

Professional surfer Mikki Tanaka never wanted to leave her beloved Hawaii, the waves of the ocean or the amazing marine life she was so dedicated to protecting. But her protests and aggressive tactics were not compatible with the law, and she found herself behind bars. She had a choice: ten years in prison or a life as an Interstellar Bride. Having never shied away from adventure, she decides to seek her fortune in the stars - with not one, but two fiery, sexy Alpha warriors on the colony. Surnen, a Prillon warrior and trusted doctor on the colony, has been waiting for a bride for years. As an exile, he has given up all hope - until a black-haired beauty from Earth suddenly steals his heart and breath. But the highly disciplined doctor loves rules and control, in bed and out. His secondary and equally fearless warrior, Captain Trax, sees it exactly the same way. Unfortunately for them, their new mate has a wild streak, an appetite for danger and violence that they both find shocking and arousing in equal measure. When her talent for trouble puts the colony in danger, they do anything to save her. Anything.
