Included in this bundle are:
Unstoppable - Lacey is a Space Marine, trained to be tough, trained to fight. But all her training won’t help her when she finds herself alone and on the run from a hulking, massively hung alien monster in a remote research base. Her laser rifle won’t stop it. Grenades won’t stop it. The base’s titanium-reinforced doors won’t stop it. Nothing will stop it until it gets what it wants—to roughly have its way with the sexy young soldier.
Taken by the Ogres – Furious at being forced into an arranged marriage, Arabella Stroud runs away from home to teach her overbearing father a lesson.

Though she knows she shouldn’t, she can’t help teasing the captive monster with some tantalizing peeps of the body it wants so badly. It’s just a little good-natured fun…until the hulking creature bursts from its supposedly escape-proof cell and roughly takes the sexy scientist.
