My Alien Overlords are red, massive, and determined to claim--steal? Keep? Possibly all of the above--me. Moons, I dunno. My status with the Louxos cousins is set on so, SO complicated. One night of passion with two Xalthurians changed everything. Nope! Try made everything worse.

And the other one’s angry at me because I refuse to risk it all to become the MFM triad he believes me, him, and my hot-but-horrible alien baby daddy are fated to become.

Since aging out of the foster care system and becoming a nurse, all I dreamed of was marrying a nice doctor and moving to a two-story house in the suburbs. So how did a dangerous biker gang criminal end up handcuffed to my bed? And why did I agree to let that animal teach me how to...ahem...do things. Wicked things.

Every human girl growing up on New Terrhan knows one thing...that she will be taken by one or several Xalthurian males when she turns 21.

Pro-tip: Don’t agree to a fake engagement with a ruthless mafia crime lord like me after you catch your real fiancé cheating. I just might keep you. She agreed to be mine for as long as it takes for a business deal to go through. She thinks this is a game. One she’ll win if she plays by the rules. Here’s what she doesn’t understand. When it comes to me, there are no rules. Scruples? Integrity? Playing fair? Nah. Our engagement might be fake, but she’s about to find out...I’m for real obsessed.

I used to be a sensible, responsible good girl who kept her nose buried in textbooks and worked hard to make her father’s dreams come true. Then Keane happened.

How does a feminist raise a son in a world that conditions boys into entitlement, privilege and power at the expense not just of girls' humanity but also their own? All boys start innocent, but by the time they are adolescents many of them will subscribe to a view of masculinity that is openly contemptuous of women and girls. This explosive new work will look at toxic masculinity and the closed ranks of brotherhood that shape an entitled, disrespectful and potentially dangerous idea of manhood.
