8 #SciFi Romance Novels Featuring Fierce Mothers

Note: This post first appeared in the Roswell Daily Record…

********************

I enjoy writing these Badari Warriors novellas because it allows me to go back and spend more time with a couple I’m really fond of, without having to advance the series arc (or not much) and to explore a little more who they are together. I had so much fun writing the story of Aydarr and Jill’s honeymoon that I decided to do the same for Daegan and Flo...
