    Lioness shifter Scarlett Milan hates that she wants her boss more than her next breath. All she thinks about is how his black-rimmed glasses and bow tie are sexier on him than any other man. But since he’s human, she’s afraid she could break him, even kill him, during a night of wild sex. 
    Knox Daniels, wimpy bean counter, has lusted after Scarlett since the moment he met her. The fact she’s his best friend’s little sister has stopped all dirty thoughts. Well, almost. After he breaks up with his girlfriend, getting his hands on Scarlett is the first thing on his to-do list. Being murdered was not. A vicious attack almost kills Knox, but science comes to the rescue. 
    Now he’s no longer the weak human Scarlett was afraid to touch. Actually, no one knows what he is except possessive, aggressive, and demanding she be his. They’ll have to team up to keep him alive while figuring out if he’s a deranged killer or just the most powerful alpha ever known. 
    Reader's Note: Hang on to your panties, folks. This is going to be quick, dirty and will have your ereader asking for a cigarette. As with all my books, adults only, please. That means if you're a prude and don't like hot sex or dirty talk, step away from the book. All others, I love you freaky people.

    If only she could add Detective Brenner to her list of conquests. Despite working with him, sharing his home, and constantly throwing herself at him, Shayne still hasn't claimed the elusive detective's heart. He obviously has feelings for her, but something secret holds him back. It's a mystery Shayne is determined to solve. 
     
     
     
    But she's got bigger problems. When Shayne's rundown of a feral ogre collides with Brenner's hunt for a serial killer, she exposes a nefarious plot involving one of the most powerful sorcerer families in Detroit. Caught between Brenner's crusade for human justice and the agency's duty to protect the interests of the underworld, Shayne is forced to choose sides.

    Daniel HirdFor sixteen years the Earth has baked and no girls have been born. Karen's the last girl and Steven's her gay twin. Dad turns their home into a fortress as women take the chance to rule the world. Their eyes are on Steven. Perhaps, with a little medical interference, he could be the saviour of the world. 'Steven is a brilliant narrator with a thrilling tale to tell. His language sculpts this reality in a striking, penetrating way, often combining beautiful observations with cutting colloquial realism.' - Barbara Melville, InterzoneEctopia takes themes of gender, feminism, climate change, cloning, psychedelics, racism, and genetic modification and mixes them into a 21st Century Brave New World'Ectopia is a thought provoking read that isn't afraid to take risks, which gives it a leg up in the crowded dystopian marketplace.' - Litreactor'Ectopia is a terrific novel with excellent characterisation, world-building, narration and dialogue. It's also thematically strong, exploring the connections between binary concepts, including male versus female, gay versus straight, and soulful versus soulless. The result is a story of great depth, raising questions about who we are and how we define ourselves.' - InterzoneBiosAuthorBorn in Leicester, Martin Goodman's career in writing, teaching, acting and publishing has taken him around the globe. 'All we can do is rattle the bars and look after him as he runs into the hills. We wait for his letters home.' - The Los Angeles Times. He's published eleven books, some award-winning and most not.
