Guard Corps Captain Scott St. Andrew, a former colonist who fled a brutal mining colony, stands at the crossroads of a brutal war between the Terran Alliance and the Seventeen worlds. After completing the Corps’ grueling training, he finds himself commanded to recapture South Point Academy on the harsh moon Exeter—a place where he once trained. However, his alien-enhancing technology is malfunctioning, threatening his life unless he undergoes a specialized reconditioning procedure available only to the secret Wardens. With the Wardens staging a coup against the Seventeen, St. Andrew faces a dire choice: obey his Corps’ code and accept a slow death or join the Wardens and risk everything for survival and the chance to alter the war’s course.

PRISONER OF DESIRE
Caroline Winwood had come to the island of San Germaine to find her father. But she'd barely arrived before she was whisked off by the military police, threatened, then just as suddenly "rescued" by dark, mysterious Major Christoffe Santini.
His lavish home became her prison. But it was her jailer who truly possessed her, with the fire in his eyes and the passion in his forbidden caress. Even as they ran from deadly peril in a country about to erupt in violence, Caroline was lost in a sea of desire as wild and dangerous as the man who aroused it. Her fate was in Christoffe Santini's hands, but who was he really--her enemy, or something much more?

It is 1918. As the German and Austrian empires are crumbling before the victorious armies of the allied powers, Captain Harry Phillips, British prisoner of war is offered his freedom by his German captors. To secure it he must smuggle out of Rumania a beautiful young princess whose pro-German sentiments have made her a target of socialist revolutionaries on the prowl through middle Europe.
Phillips agrees. And finds himself involved in a breathless, perilous chase across war-torn Europe with a woman too courageous to deplore, too resourceful to disregard, too beautiful to resist—and too far above him to love . . .
