Showing results for "Hero" in Science Fiction

For three years I've hoped and prayed for someone—anyone—to help me. Not once did I picture my hero to be a seven-foot, lavender alien with flowing golden-white hair who tells me I'm his fated mate. Evren is everything I ever wanted in a man.

Bill "Hero" Reynolds never expected to be the man who saved the world from an alien invasion. However, when a solar storm hits, his truck is the only one left on the road, and he's recruited for a secret mission. He's got a long way to go and a short time to get there. To make his delivery on time, he'll need help: an adrenaline junkie brunette, a feisty blonde sharpshooter, and a nerdy redheaded scientist. But as they drive America's highways, an extraterrestrial sheriff and his dim-witted robot are hot on their trail, and they won't rest until Hero and his crew are in jail.

I’d won a battle, but the war still stood before me. Yes, I’d defeated Steel Eyes, but it meant nothing. My girls, on the other hand, meant the world, the galaxy, the universe, to me. Holo, the AI with a body to die for and a mind as sharp as a Terrulean battle axe. Kit-Kat — a sassy, smart and drop-dead gorgeous catgirl. The demon, Frix — so hot she could burn a hole in any man’s heart. Zen? Well, she was a possibility but not a certainty. The foxkin intrigued me, enticed me. Would destiny see us get together?

Having returned home from his grandfather’s house, Alex is back to cooking, cleaning, and making sure his lazy sister is doing her homework. Of course, he and Gabrielle are still inventing—much to the consternation of everyone who knows them. But when Alex decides to take a mysterious young woman into his home, he may discover that kindness and heroism don’t always go hand in hand.

I dislike people. I despise humans. A cruel mandate from one of my region's rulers has saddled me with a slew of little alien humans: I'm to put them to work. One problem? I run a rock quarry, where humans’ thin skin is a detriment to productivity. Overseeing these humans is like trying to herd yanaks. If I don't burn, beat, or strangle them to death by the day's end, it will be a miracle.

One day, I was a mild-mannered designer for a premiere superhero magazine. Turned down for a promotion yet again, I let loose years of repressed anger. That's how I got fired. Lesson learned. Now my career is as successful as my love life. But it's hard being upset when I storm out of the office and into the huskular man of my dreams. Sebastian is successful, confident, and the way he fills out those pants, it's basically a crime. Working as the art director for a rival magazine, I beg for him to look at my . . . ahem, portfolio.

I've watched Belle grow up over these past 10 years. She is as pure and sweet as her art, and even though I can never have her, the thought of her alone and scared in the woods makes me want to kill someone. I'm going to save her life, even if it costs me my own!

Finding a mate is the farthest thing from alien warrior Jared Bennett's mind. After years of exile on Earth, the king is close to developing a weapon that will alter the fabric of time and hopefully bring peace to his own people. But a chance encounter with scientist Kelsey Wells ignites a scorching desire far more consuming than talks of rebellion.

But despite her fears, she can't deny the heated response of her body every time the magnetic leader comes near.
