Today, I’m going to share from another of my lesbian romances. NEVER GONNA DESERT YOU is the second book in The Underground dystopian series. Here’s a bit about the story followed by an excerpt. Enjoy!

NEVER GONNA DESERT YOU

The Underground #2

By Jessica E. Subject

Erotic Lesbian Dystopian Romance

ISBN: 978-1613335468

Determined to find and bring back her girlfriend, Brook enlists in the next mission to the foreign planet, Airondelle. But the deception at Planet Core continues, and Brook doesn’t realize the depth of her father’s involvement until he orders her terminated. Struggling to stay alive, she quickly learns nothing is as she believed.

Will she ever find Melina? Or will Brook be stuck light years from home, alone, and with a fierce predator hunting her down?

“And love is never a bad thing. You just have to find the right person to return it.”

Brook laughed. “Well, it certainly wasn’t Jason.”

“No, but you’ll find the right person.” Me.

“I hope so.”

She brushed her fingers along the top of Melina’s hand, a rush of desire making her head spin. Get a grip. Take advantage of the situation now, and you’ll never stand a chance for a future together.

“I…I really wish we could have been friends sooner, before all of this.” She closed the space between them, her leg pressing against Melina’s thigh. Resting her head against Melina’s shoulder, Brook gazed up at her. “But we have now, right?”

God yes, they had now, but Melina wanted so much more. She clenched her hands to squelch the want burning through her veins. Taking advantage of Brook would only leave her with a broken heart. “I came here as a friend, nothing more.”

Brook’s bottom lip trembled. “You…you don’t want me anymore?”

If only she knew. Melina wrapped her arms around Brook, but kept her hands clutched together. If she drew her fingers across any part of Brook’s body, she’d lose all control. “I want you more than you will ever know. But, as you know, same-sex relationships are banned.”

Brook twisted around in Melina’s arms. “I don’t care any longer. Take me. Show me how you can love me because I’ve been fantasizing about it for weeks.”

The last restraint snapped. She refused to deny what Brook wanted. Scooping her onto her lap, Melina nuzzled into the crook of her neck, taking in the exotic scent of strawberries. If the replicated version smelled as divine, she’d never eat anything else.

She found Brook’s soft lips. With tender sweeps, she invaded her mouth. God, the girl tasted like heaven.

Pulling open the tie of Brook’s robe, she slipped her hand inside the smooth silk. Warm porcelain skin met the tips of her fingers. Soft, like the petals of a rose. Both so rare and wonderful. Her breath quickened. She’d never made love to a woman, yet there was no one she wanted more. Desire flooded out all conscious thought, leaving only hunger to touch and taste. To have.

She laid Brook back on the couch, robe open to expose her beautiful naked body. Palming the ample breasts, she circled her thumbs around Brook’s pert nipples. Utterly divine.

Brook moaned, thrusting her pelvis into the air. Melina’s pussy clenched at the musky smell of sex. Fuck, she wanted to taste her, but the rest of her body needed attention, too. She leaned down, and sucked a rosy peak. Grazing her teeth around the edge, she delighted in Brook’s ragged cries.

Eliciting the same response on the other side, she sighed as Brook ran her fingers through her hair. Her lover’s body was so responsive, so precious. Trailing kisses down her stomach, Melina enjoyed the resulting whimpers. No going back. This is my time to prove how good we are together.

She played with the blond curls covering her mons before sliding one finger into Brook’s wet pussy. The liquid heat left her body pulsing with need. Slipping a second digit inside, she drew them in and out in a measured rhythm. Brook rocked against Melina’s hand, moaning louder and louder.

Then she stopped, staring up at Melina with wide eyes. “This isn’t going to work.”

What? A vise clenched her heart. This can’t end already.

Brook smiled, releasing a soft giggle. “You have all your clothes on. It’s only fair if we’re both naked.”

Did you enjoy that?

Afternoon loving in ANOTHER NIGHT, ANOTHER PLANET #MySexySaturday #BookBirthday

Hello everyone! Thank you for joining me for the 46th week of My Sexy Saturday.

This week we’re sharing afternoon love scenes, and sexy moments between our characters. Because every relationship is important!

Remeber, sexy can be any romantic moments like walks on the beach, a home cooked meal or even time together in another galaxy. It could be two lovers here on Earth dreaming about the day where they go on a magical vacation to another planet. Or staying right here at one of those wonderful places we can find in our own world.

Here are seven from ANOTHER NIGHT, ANOTHER PLANET,

which is 1-year published today.

Set-up: Ava and Nate, former lovers, are unknowingly reunited for a 1Night Stand on the pleasure planet Elatia. Though they both know they have little chance of being together after their date, they are enjoying their time together.

As he stood by the massage table, spreading the veech cloth over the surface, she stared at him, taking in all the hard lines of his body. Scars marred his arms, his legs, his back, even his tight ass. Proof life hadn’t been easy for him. Even on Earth, as an orphan, he had been shunned by most, not having any status or a family to belong to.

Right now, though, she wanted to belong to him, be taken by him, over and over. She wanted to forget about everything except the sexy man in front of her. Instead of joining Nate at the table, she wandered over to the enormous round bed.

~ About ANOTHER NIGHT, ANOTHER PLANET ~

Limited by status…

Ava is a housekeeper aboard Star Spirit, a luxury cruise ship travelling between the Milky Way and the Belvarian System. Coming from a middle-class family on Earth, she is considered by passengers as nothing more than an object to be tossed away when they’re done with her.

Shunned because of his lineage…

Banned from several planets across the universe, Nate struggles to run his interstellar shipping business. But the DNA of an exterminated race runs through his blood, giving him a diluted form of their powers, and leaving him labeled as a terrorist.

Both searching for the one…

Through her 1Night Stand dating service, Madame Evangeline matches these two together for a celestial escape on the pleasure planet, Elatia.

Will Ava and Nate find what they’re looking for, or will their date be just another night on another planet?

AVAILABLE FROM:

She can kill with a kiss ~ TETHERED, coming soon from @PippaJayGreen #scifirom

Tethered by Pippa Jay

She can kill with a kiss. But can assassin Tyree also heal one man’s grief, and bring peace to a galaxy threatened by war?

For Tyree of the Su, being an assassin isn’t simply something she was trained for. It’s the sole reason for her existence. A genetically enhanced clone—one of many in Refuge—she’s about to learn her secluded lifestyle, and that of all her kind, is under threat by a race capable of neutralizing their special talents to leave them defenseless.

For Zander D’joren, being a diplomat has not only cost him his appearance, but also the love of his life. Scarred, grieving, he must nonetheless continue in his role as co-delegate to the fearsome Tier-vane or risk a conflict that could only end one way.

Now both of them need to keep each other alive and maintain a perilous deception long enough to renegotiate the treaty with the Tier-vane, or throw their people into a war that could wipe out Terrans and Inc-Su alike. But there’s more at stake than humanity, whether true or modified. Can the love growing between them save them both? Or merely hasten their destruction?

A science fiction romance novella, coming from Breathless Press 25th July.

A thrill of excitement shivered down her spine as she backed away a few steps with Zander following. He shrugged off his formal outer robes, and for the first time she could appreciate the broad expanse of his chest, the close-fitting fabric stretched over well-defined muscles. It appeared he hadn’t allowed his physique to slacken, despite leaving the Galactic Commission.

“Are you ready?” she asked.

Zander spread his hands in an open gesture to say that he was.

So why is he just standing there like a defunct Manikin instead of poised to fight?

Tyree took her combat position and Zander matched her, just as the Manikin had done. She’d never fought a human in combat practice before. This should be interesting.

She sprang forward and aimed two rapid punches at his face. Zander evaded both with a speed and grace totally out of proportion to his bulk. Her third he blocked with little effort, and she stepped back to reassess her strategy. But only for an instant.

A quick step forward and she lashed upward with her foot, snapping his head back. Zander staggered but didn’t fall. Her second kick failed as he grabbed her ankle and jerked her off balance. She twisted as she dropped and caught him hard in the knee. Zander collapsed. Both rolled aside, and then jumped up to face each other again.

Not bad.

Tyree bit back a laugh as they exchanged blows, each faster than the last. Zander blocked or evaded most, but not all. His skill almost matched hers, yet his defenses were just a fraction too slow. Each move she made tested his reach, his reflexes and his stamina until she could sense him struggling a little.

Time for the kill.

She floored him with a kick to the chest, the full weight of her augmented density behind it, but as she moved in to finish the fight he dove into her. Tyree landed on her back hard enough to drive the breath from her lungs.

Zander had her pinned to the ground. She bucked but couldn’t shift him. The triumphant smile on his face sent rage blazing through her gut. With hardly a whisper, she Misted out and went through him. Golden warmth filled her for a second before she pulled free. Zander pushed to his feet and spun to meet her, but she cranked up her molecular density and punched him hard in the chest. He collapsed, gasping and coughing. In one fluid movement she sat astride him at full density, and the air whumphed out of his lungs. She pinioned his arms with her hands, her face hovering mere centimeters above his.

As her breathing slowed to normal, a huge grin split her face. She’d made a vow to herself to jump him, and she’d done it. Perhaps it was childish, but it warmed her heart.

“Your…reputation…is well deserved,” he gasped.

“You’re not so bad yourself,” she complimented him. He’d fought well, but perhaps not quite with the determination—and certainly not the desperation—of most opponents she’d faced. “For a human.”

“Thank you. Perhaps we could try this again tomorrow?”

Tyree laughed. As much as he could irritate the hell out of her, he was equally amusing. “If you want to spend most of your morning on the floor…”

He gazed up at her with that easy smile, making no effort to struggle. Most humans, without the influence of her pheromones and the distraction of her naked body writhing above theirs, would not have been so trusting. So compliant. She found herself staring at his mouth. What would it be like to kiss him, without the use of her talents? Would it be as satisfying? As sensual? The warmth of him, the firmness of his body beneath hers, sent heat spiraling through her abdomen.

“Perhaps you could let me up now?” His words jerked her from such musings. What the hell was she thinking?

After spending twelve years working as an Analytical Chemist in a Metals and Minerals laboratory, Pippa Jay is now a stay-at-home mum who writes scifi and the supernatural. Somewhere along the way a touch of romance crept into her work and refused to leave. In between torturing her plethora of characters, she spends the odd free moment playing guitar very badly, punishing herself with freestyle street dance, and studying the Dark Side of the Force. Although happily settled in the historical town of Colchester in the UK with her husband of 21 years and three little monsters, she continues to roam the rest of the Universe in her head.

Pippa Jay is a dedicated member of the Science Fiction Romance Brigade, blogging at Spacefreighters Lounge, Adventures in Scifi, and Romancing the Genres. Her works include a YA science fiction novel—Gethyon—published through BURST (Champagne Books), two self-published short stories (Terms & Conditions Apply and The Bones of the Sea), and she’s one of eight authors included in a science fiction romance anthology—Tales from the SFR Brigade. She’s also a double SFR Galaxy Award winner, been a finalist in the Heart of Denver RWA Aspen Gold Contest (3rd place), and the GCC RWA Silken Sands Star Awards (2nd place).

How to disable the Adult Filter on Amazon – for those looking for sexy reads #eroticromance #erotica

Hello readers! I’m not sure how many of you have noticed that Amazon has started using an adult filter on their books, but they have. And three of my books (under two names) were not searchable except via a direct link. That means, if you’re looking for a book with adult content, but can’t find the direct link on the authors website, you likely will not be able to find the book.

Now, not all adult books have been filtered like this. Only those with covers that show any form of nudity, or someone touching a woman’s breasts. I imagine this is just the beginning.

While I’m not opposed to the books having an adult filter on them (I do have kids), it would be nice for Amazon to give adults an option to turn off this filter. And they do, but it’s not that easy to find. On the Love Romances Cafe Yahoo Group today, Dawn Roberto posted a way to disable the filter. Here’s how:

1. Login to your Amazon account. (Just your basic account, not an author or publisher one.)

2. On the SEARCH drop down menu, select “Kindle Store”.

3. Search for the title of a book you know has been adult filtered. (In my case, I used Sexy Suitors from Space.)

4. You should receive the message “Your search contains adult items which have been hidden. If you wish to see them, click here.”

5. Click on “click here” on the Amazon site.

This will enable your adult content again. That is, until you clean your cookies. Then you’ll have to do the process all over again, or tell your browser cleaner to leave the Amazon cookies alone.

Happy Reading!

#GLBTMonday ~ Lust on the dance floor in UNKNOWN FUTURES #LGBT #lesbianromance

Hello! GLBT Mondays continue as I feature romantic scenes of gay, lesbian, or bisexual love from my stories. And just so you know, all of my gay, lesbian, and bisexual stories are $0.99 until the end of June at Decadent Publishing, All Romance, and Amazon.com (those that are not banned).

Today, I’m going to share from one of my lesbian romances. UNKNOWN FUTURES is a 1Night Stand story that takes place on a space station. So, here’s a bit about the story followed by an excerpt. Enjoy!

[image error]
Unknown Futures

A 1Night Stand story

By Jessica E. Subject

Erotic Lesbian Sci-Fi Romance

ISBN: 978-1613331842

Attacked as a young adult, Jewel is left scarred and alone. She applies to the 1 Night Stand service, believing no one can see past her appearance to love her. But she doesn’t expect to be sent to a space station where her date could be any number of unusual alien species.

Flavia left everything behind to be one of five humans working for the Space Service space station. Extremely homesick, she is excited to learn she will be a guide to a woman from Earth visiting the station for a couple days. She is immediately drawn to the petite woman, seeing past her scars to her true inner beauty, stirring unforeseen desires.

Unfortunately, Jewel is there for a date which Flavia hasn’t been told about. Can she contain her lust and simply show her a good time? Or will she let her desire lead them into an unknown future?

The music thrummed, filling her to the core, preventing her from standing still. She

found a spot with just enough room for the two of them. No one else mattered. With each

hit of the bass, she moved her feet, her hips, her hands. She let the beat control her body

and her heart.

Although others might be watching, her attention remained on Jewel. Each movement,

a planned seduction. She couldn’t let her go without trying. When the next song began,

Jewel finally relaxed. She moved to the music.

And V moved closer. She slid her hand from Jewel’s waist, down, then back up,

swaying in front of her. Only an inch between them. She couldn’t get enough. Her Earth

scent became intoxicating.

Beat after beat, song after song, she kept her hands on the sexy woman. She claimed

her, telling everyone else to stay away. She wanted to savor her precious body. Maybe

she could make her forget about her date.

She pulled Jewel even closer, her sensitive nipples pressed against the woman she

desired. Holding her with both hands, grinding against her to the music. Her heart raced

with hunger. I want to take her on the floor. Right here. Right now.

But the song changed. The beat slowed, indicating last call. The club would close

soon.

Most of the patrons had left. Only those hoping to hook up remained. She stepped

back. Jewel would have to make the first move. V could never force herself on anyone.

When Jewel took her hands and placed them back on her body, she couldn’t help but

smile. Perhaps the evening would end the way she wanted.

Jewel pressed against her, her head resting on her shoulder, swaying to the decelerated

beat. “I don’t want this night to end.”

Their dancing became deliberate, a sensuous and intimate rhythm. “It doesn’t have

to.”

Jewel stopped and looked up at her. “You…you’re interested?”

“Why wouldn’t I be? You’re the most beautiful creature in the space station.”

Somehow, she had to make her see. She brushed her thumb across her lips, wanting to

touch more, her entire luscious body. Taking a deep breath, V steadied herself. If this

were to go any further, Jewel needed to show her own intentions. As warm moisture

pooled between her thighs, V schooled herself to patience.

“Are you sure you’re not my date?”

Shit! That damn date, the only wedge between them. “No, but I wish I was.”

“I wish you were, too.” Jewel stood on the tips of her toes and claimed her mouth.

V pulled her closer until the bit of space between them had been filled. Excited by the

warm, curvaceous body pressed against her taut nipples, she fed from the sweetness of

Jewel’s mouth, drawing out each delicious sweep. But she wanted more. She wanted all of her.

Did you enjoy that?

Want to find out what happens next between Jewel and V?

A relaxing moment for the leader of The Underground #MySexySaturday #eroticromance

Hello everyone! Thank you for joining me for the 45th week of My Sexy Saturday.

This week we’re sharing excerpts about characters who are in charge and wield it in such a way that everyone loves them. These are the characters that appeal to all and each are different in lots of ways.

Here’s seven from NEVER GONNA SAY GOODBYE.

Set-up: Though this isn’t the sexiest part of this scene, it does show Will Garrison, who is the leader of The Underground, and adored by all in the rebel group. Well, except for the moles. Oops! I’ve said too much.

“Tonight went well.” Will Garrison slumped onto a chair and stared across the empty cavern. All the inhabitants of the Underground safe houses had already returned to their rooms. Other members of the rebellion to the main headquarters under the city. The festive party had provided a temporary reprieve from what was to come.

Tim Harris stood behind him. “Yes, I’d say the evening was a success. The weddings reminded people what we’re fighting for.” He dug his thumbs into Will’s tense back muscles.

He groaned. “God, that feels good.” For the first time in days, he had a minute to sit and rest his aching body. This quiet moment with his lover offered an occasion to fulfill other needs as well. He wished he had more time with Tim, more instances to satisfy his desires, complete his soul. Only a few knew the extent of their relationship, but Tim wasn’t around enough for people to catch them in each other’s arms. After tomorrow, Will planned to tell the world how much he loved Tim.

“You need to relax.” Tim kissed the top of his head. “The leader of the rebellion needs to be in top form.”

“You’re just as much a part of this as I am.” Everything would go down the next day. All of their plans would be put into action at dawn, he and Tim each leading a different team. And by sundown, they’d make sure Benson Malock paid for all the lives he’d ruined and ended. Planet Core would no longer be under his control.

“I still wish you would take a larger group with you, especially Jacobs and Edwards. They just returned from Airondelle, traveled through the portals.”

He sighed, not wanting to have the argument again. They’d made their plans, instructed everyone where to go and what to do. “I know, but I need to keep my party small. You’re supposed to be the distraction so we can sneak in the back door. The more people you have, the better.”

~ About NEVER GONNA SAY GOODBYE ~

Rebels, former Planet Core employees, have banded together in The Underground. They fight against the policies of the corporation that owns the lease on their lives. They will have their freedom or they will die trying.

The rebellion is stirring…

Will Garrison leads the fight against the control of the corporation—he wants his people to have their rights to live and love back. Reunited with his lover, former Planet Core medic Tim Harris, the men disagree on how to take down the corporation.

And the desire for freedom…

Tim’s plan requires that he provide a distraction while Will leads The Underground’s forces in a lightning raid, but who can Will trust when he’s already been betrayed once?

May cost these men everything…

Timing is everything, because if either fails The Underground may be crushed under the weight of Planet Core once and for all.

Only $0.99 for the month of June at:

Strawberries and Summer ~ Enter to WIN with the #SummerForLoveHop! #Giveaway

Thank you so much to Krystal Shannan and The Romance Troupe for hosting this hop!

One of my favorite things about summer is all of the summer berries that are in season. My ultimate fav are Northern blueberries (the small sweet ones), but it’s a long drive just for berries. And they’re very expensive. So, unless we’re driving up to visit family, we usually stick to the strawberries we can get in this area of the province. Not only can we find them at the local farmer’s market, we can also buy them (and pick them) from local farms. So, I usually buy a bunch to eat and extra to freeze as well. This year I’m hoping to can some.

In NEVER GONNA DESERT YOU, I have a romantic scene between Brook and Melina involving strawberries. Enjoy!

“Open it.” Brook nodded, anxiously awaiting her girlfriend’s reaction.

Melina pulled the lid from the container and gasped. “Strawberries?” She sniffed the bowl. “They have a smell. They’re not replicated. Where did you find them?”

“I grew them for you.”

“You did?” Melina’s eyes glazed over.

She nodded. She would do anything for Melina. “Yes. I remember you telling me how you wanted to taste them, see if I….” Her cheeks flushed. If I taste the same.

Melina’s expression changed. She grinned, eyes sparkling. “Well, let’s find out.” She removed a strawberry from the container and placed the ripe fruit between her full lips.

God, she wanted to kiss her. Brook groaned, suddenly envious of the berry. “How is it?”

Melina stared at her while taking a bite. She slurped in a piece, red juice running down her chin. “Mmm, better than I ever imagined.”

Then Melina leaned forward. Her moist lips met the sensitive skin of Brook’s neck, sending liquid heat rushing through her veins. Brook’s pussy throbbed. If they’d been in her apartment, Brook would have Melina naked already.

Melina pulled away, running her finger down between Brook’s breasts. “But I’d rather taste you any day.”

Brook’s head spun. Electric tension left her synapses firing. “Maybe we have time to—”

“One hour until curfew,” the mechanical voice belted out, chilling her desire.

“Shit.”

“We always have tomorrow.” Melina pulled another berry from the container. “Have a taste for yourself before we leave.” She popped the fruit into Brook’s mouth.

She shuddered from the sweet taste that sent her taste buds into hyper-drive. “So good.”

She craved more. More strawberries. And more Melina. But they both had to get home before curfew.

Melina stood, brushing off her pants. “Your place or mine, tomorrow?”

“Mine.” Then neither of them had to travel far after work.

Her girlfriend handed over the container. “You take these then, and we’ll have fun at your place when I get there.” She kissed the corner of her mouth. “I love you.” Without giving Brook a chance to answer, she spun around and walked away.

Belly in knots, Brook stared down at the ground, pinching the bridge of her nose. She hated sneaking around like this, that they couldn’t be together in public. One day they would. Somehow, she’d find a way.

Never Gonna Desert You

The Underground #2

Sci-Fi/Dytopian Lesbian Erotic Romance

Determined to find and bring back her girlfriend, Brook enlists in the next mission to the foreign planet, Airondelle. But the deception at Planet Core continues, and Brook doesn’t realize the depth of her father’s involvement until he orders her terminated. Struggling to stay alive, she quickly learns nothing is as she believed.

Always secondary, never the heroine ~ Meet Genna from THE CHAMELEON by @dmburton72 #scifirom

My guest today is fellow author and friend Diane Burton, author of The Chameleon, a science fiction romance. And she’s brought along one of the characters from the story for me to interview. But first, here’s a little about the story…

Legally Blond meets Mata Hari

Socialite Jileena Winslott has perfected the image of the spoiled, rich, bubble-headed daughter of an industrial magnate. In reality, she’s a smart, savvy aide to her father in social situations where she is his eyes and ears. She yearns to be her true self and run the family business. When her father sends her on a covert mission to the Outer Rim, she has the chance to prove herself. Big problem. He insists she take along a fake fiancé—the man she’s secretly loved for years.

Security Officer Laning Servary has better things to do than babysit a spoiled rich girl on a tour of the Frontier. If he refuses, he can kiss his career good-by. Then Jileena’s father sweetens the pot. If Laning keeps her safe, his family will receive the land they share-crop. He can’t refuse.

In the close quarters of her ship, Laning and Jileena discover they aren’t who they seem. Pirates, weather, and her recklessness threaten to derail the mission. As Laning and Jileena revise their impressions of each other, they’ll have to make hard choices about their goals. Can their budding love survive?

I asked Diane if we could interview her hero or heroine. Apparently, they have been doing interviews elsewhere so she brought along someone else. [checking notes] All right, who is this?

I’m Genna Nogaro and this is the second time I’ve been a secondary character—first in The Pilot and now in The Chameleon. Frankly, I want to be the heroine. I want my own happy-ever-after. But every time I mention that to my author, she puts me off, saying not yet.

In The Pilot, I had a fling with my boss, Security Chief Laning Servary. We had a great time and I thought it would go somewhere. Then while he’s back at headquarters on Bricaldia, I see on the newswaves that he’s engaged. I freaked. How could he do that and not tell me. So when I heard he returned to the Rim, I headed out to Astron Colony to see for myself.

Tell us more about you.

Genna: Originally, I’m from Traish, a planet in the Coalition of Planets Central District. I’m in Space Fleet, currently posted to Vesteron Colony on Magnus Prime in the Outer Rim as an aide to the Security Chief. When the old chief retired, I was so afraid that the second in command would replace him. That smarmy, self-important, know-it-all thought he deserved it. Thank the Matriarch, the new Administrator brought in his own chief, Laning Servary. I’d go to the ends of the galaxy for that man. What a hunk. Oh, and he’s a great chief, too. Sort of like a sheriff in your old west.

Do you want to be an aide for the rest of your life or do you aspire to be more?

Genna: Darn right I want more. I’m capable of more, but the old chief thought fems belonged in subservient positions. What a throwback to ancient times. I’m a darn good pilot and mechanic, but I’m better at organization. My goal is to be an Administrator of a colony out here on the Rim. Unfortunately, my impulsive nature and my big mouth has gotten me noticed and not in a good way.

What do you think of Chief Servary’s fiancée?

Genna: She isn’t right for him. She’s an absolute fluff brain. She talks in this childish voice, no wonder everyone calls her Baby. And she certainly doesn’t belong here out on the Frontier. Fems have to be tough or they die. Laning deserves better, a fem who is as strong as he is. Someone like…well, me.

How did it feel when you realized Laning loved her?

Genna: How do you think it felt? My heart broke. I lashed out at him, at her. I tried to keep them apart. I’m ashamed to say my anger got the best of me. Even when I tried to trick her, she didn’t fight back. At first I thought she was a namby-pamby weakling. Then I realized she’s a lot stronger and more forgiving than I am. In the end, I guess I was resigned that Laning Servary wasn’t my hero. Now I just wish my author would give me my own story and my own hero. Hear that, Diane Burton! I want my story and I want it now!

Well, Diane, is Genna going to get her own story?

Diane: *sigh* Yes, she will. I wish she’d stop yelling at me and wait her turn. I like Genna, but she’s right about that big mouth of hers. It’s going to get her into more trouble than she expects.

I imagine Genna, along with our readers, want to know when?

Diane: Hers will be the fourth book in the Outer Rim series. I’m writing number three now. So she’s just going to have to wait until next year.

Genna: NEXT YEAR? BY THE MATRIARCH’S LEFT TIT, THAT’S TOO LONG.

Diane: See, Jessica, what I mean about her yelling? Sheesh. If she settles down, I might let her appear in the third book.

Genna: What? As another secondary character? No thanks! From now on, it’s all or nothing.

She certainly has strong opinions, doesn’t she?

Diane: *another sigh* You don’t know the half of it, Jess. But then she wouldn’t survive out on the Frontier, a male-dominant place, if she wasn’t.

Genna: Hey, guys, I’m still here. Don’t talk about me as if I’m invisible.

How about if you give us an excerpt from The Chameleon? *whispering* Maybe that will pacify her.

Genna: I heard that! You should show them the first time I appear in the story.

Genna Nogaro burst in. “Whew. Those miners are tough sons of bitches. Hey, Boss. Glad to see you here. I’ve got news for you.”

While he stood there like a mute, she grabbed his arm and tugged him into Kaminga’s office. As soon as she closed the door, she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him soundly.

The quiet clearing of Jileena’s throat made him break away from Genna’s embrace.

“Oh, hey,” Genna said. “I didn’t know the office was in use. Sorry about that.”

“Don’t let me interrupt,” Jileena said stiffly. “I’ll wait outside with the officer while you two, uh, finish.”

Could things get any worse? Laning stopped her. “It’s better you stay in here. This is Genna Nogaro, my assistant.”

Though Jileena quickly erased her surprise, he saw it. “I’ve heard much about you. Lan claims you’re indispensable.”

Genna turned to him with questions in her eyes.

“As a favor to my father,” Jileena said, “Lan is taking me on a tour of this sector. I had no idea there would be this much excitement.”

* * *

So that’s Genna Nogaro. Jileena eyed the fem who had kissed Servary. She wasn’t just his assistant, like he claimed. Everything about the fem’s actions screamed lover.

Nogaro was beautiful in the exotic way of Traishans. Tall, sturdily built, dark hair and sultry eyes. Jileena felt small and pale in comparison, unnoteworthy.

Jileena and Nogaro stood off to the side away from the prison cell where the drunken miners slept on.

“So, your father knows the Chief?” Nogaro asked quietly.

“So, you’re his aide?” Jileena countered.

Nogaro blushed. “I, uh, thought we were alone.”

“Is that how aides greet their bosses on the Frontier?” Jileena raised her eyebrow.

She didn’t know why she said that. She wasn’t jealous. If Laning Servary wanted to have a personal relationship with his subordinate, who was she to have feelings one way or another? She was just the fake fiancée. Using him to get what she wanted, control of her family’s business.

Where can readers find Laning and Jileena’s story?

Genna: And mine!
