Thirteenth Zodiac

For eons, the Zodiac Warriors have fought in secret the evils that threaten Earth: aliens, monsters, even depraved humans. So when their seer predicts a coming calamity these fighters are more than ready to protect humanity. First up is Scorpio who is tasked with locating an artifact in Antarctica. A simple mission, except the doctor who's supposed to help him find it has no idea what he's talking about. Rebecca doesn't know what to think of the dude who suddenly appears-naked in subzero temperatures. He claims to be some kind of astral hero. Ridiculous, and yet, there is something not quite human about Scorpio. As for his conviction she can lead him to a relic that will save the world? He must be smoking some epic astral dust. To her surprise, though, the glacier she's been chipping at is hiding the entrance to a mysterious cave. What they discover inside blows her scientific mind. Almost as much as Scorpio blows her usually quiet libido. However, before Rebecca can come to terms with the fact Zodiac Warriors truly are magical, she's betrayed by her employer. Turns out, she wasn't contracted by some do-good climate group, but by villains who steal the relic! Can Scorpio recover the artifact before it's too late? And if he does, will this bachelor decide he's ready to relinquish the single life for love? Contains mature themes.

Leo's life is a living hell. He lost his wife and baby to a monster and blames himself. He's spent years trying to overcome the guilt, but it turns out heavy drinking isn't a solution. When the boss of the Zodiac Warriors orders him to seek help, he ends up spilling his guts in a shrink's office. However, the attractive woman isn't falling for his pity party-and knows he's hiding something. When her newest patient arrives for his session, Dr. Ruth Warmstone hopes her couch survives the massive, muscled man that flops atop it. It isn't just his body that's heavy but his dark thoughts. Right away, she knows he's holding back. How can she get him to open up? Maybe she'll get a chance to unlock his secrets when he helps her to evade capture by an organization that wants something she inherited from her archeologist father. While on the run-that turns into a quest to discover her father's last known whereabouts-she discovers Leo is no ordinary man. He's a Zodiac Warrior with a mission from the stars. Together, they must explore a jungle in search of an ancient artifact and find a way for Leo to forgive the sins of his past so love can flourish in his future. Contains mature themes.
