Ruby Dixon Pořadí knih (chronologicky)

In a world of magical artifacts and fantastical beings, a woman with a deadly magic secret needs the help of the minotaur she’s trying to forget in the sizzling sequel to Ruby Dixon's New York Times bestseller Bull Moon Rising . Gwenna has always considered herself a normal person. A former servant, she wants nothing more than to land a steady job with the Royal Artifactual Guild so she can make some steady coin to send home to her mother. She's not special. She's certainly not a necromancer. That would be impossible, given how necromancing (or any 'mancing) is forbidden upon penalty of death. So if the dead keep talking to her? Well, she's going to keep on ignoring them. They're not going to stand in the way of her dreams. Also standing in her way? One big, arrogant, far-too-flirty Taurian named Raptor. They slept together once, and now he wants more . . . but she doesn’t have time for that. Her focus is on being a fledgling, a trainee for the Royal Artifactual Guild. But Raptor won't go away. He's on a secret mission for the guild to find an artifact thief. Problem is, he thinks the thief is Gwenna. How can she convince Raptor that he's got the wrong girl when all the signs point to her? And how do you tell a Taurian you can't date him because you hear dead people and it might cost you your life?

Někdy se věci prostě pokazí. A tak na ledové planetě s těmi nejkrutějšími myslitelnými podmínkami uvízlo dvanáct pozemšťanek. A jasně, já jsem jako na potvoru jedna z nich. Abychom přežili, musíme přijmout symbionty, kteří nám umožní adaptovat se na zdejší podmínky. Bohužel, zrovna můj symbiont je otravný parchant s dohazovačskámi sklony. Proč bych se ale zrovna já měla pářit s největším mimozemšťanem široko daleko?

As a Holder’s daughter, Aspeth Honori knows the importance of magical artifacts . . . which is why it’s a disaster that her father has gambled all theirs away. Now that her family is in danger of losing their hold—and their heads—if anyone finds out the truth, Aspeth decides to do something about it. She’ll join the Royal Artifactual Guild and the adventurers who explore ancient underground ruins to retrieve the coveted arcane items. It’s a great plan—with one big problem. The guild won’t let her train because she’s a woman. Aspeth needs a chaperone of some kind. The best way to get around this problem? Marry someone who will let her become an apprentice. Who better than a surly guild member who requires a favor of his own? He’s a minotaur (it’s fine) who is her teacher (also fine) . . . and he’s about to go into rut (which is where it gets tricky). He also has no idea she’s a noble (oops), and he’ll want nothing to do with her if he discovers her real identity. Now Aspeth just has to pass the guild tests, thwart a fortune hunter, and save her hold—oh, and survive a rut with her monstrous, horned husband, whom she might be falling in love with. It’s time to dig deep. Literally.

The next novel in the Ice Planet Barbarians series, an international publishing phenomenon—now in a special print edition with a bonus new epilogue! Lila has never been more frightened in her life, but when Rokan appears, everything changes. When I wake up on the ice planet, I’m scared of everything: This place is cold, silent, and the locals look more like blue devils than aliens. To make matters worse, one of the strangers decides I’m going to be his girlfriend and kidnaps me away from my sister. I’m completely and utterly alone. What’s a girl to do? Well, this girl escapes. Of course, that means I go from the frying pan into the fire, and my situation gets even more dangerous. Just when I have no hope left, a new hero shows up. Sure, he’s blue, horned, and has a tail. He’s also fierce, protective, makes me purr...and thinks I'm perfect. But is what we have real or just a mating instinct?

The next novel in the Ice Planet Barbarians series, an international publishing phenomenon—now in a special print edition with an exclusive bonus epilogue! There are a million reasons why Hassen and Maddie shouldn't work, but despite it all, they find themselves unable to resist each other... As a newcomer to the alien tribe, I've struggled to find my place. It might be because I'm a tad headstrong at times. And yes, I might have thrown a few things at people's heads. But I had a good reason to pitch a fit—my shy sister was stolen away right under my nose. Of course, now she's back and mated. Everyone's happy...except me. I need...affection. Attention. Okay, I'm lonely. Really lonely. Strangely enough, the only person that I think understands what I'm going through is the same blue-skinned brute that stole my sister. It's wrong to hook up with him, even as a mindless fling. Except...I'm not so good with the whole "rules" thing. And he's not so great with the "fling" thing. But maybe there's a chance for us.

První román erotické sci-fi řady americké autorky. Co může být příjemnějšího než se na ledové planetě přitulit k velkému, hřejivému mimozemšťanovi? Doplněno o bonusovou novelu. Nejspíš si myslíte, že být unesena mimozemšťany je to nejhorší, co se mi mohlo přihodit. Tak to se pletete, protože tihle mimozemšťané měli potíže s motorem, a tudíž náklad lidských žen - včetně mě - vysadili na ledové planetě. Žádná z nás není k životu v téhle bezútěšné, mrazivé pustině vybavená. Ale protože si mě v podstatě zvolily za svou vedoucí, nezbývá mi než se vydat do sněhu hledat pomoc. A taky že ji najdu. U velikého, modrého mimozemšťana s rohy, který se mi představí poněkud nezvykle. Tvrdí, že jsem jeho družka, jeho vyvolená - a že to předení v jeho hrudi vyvolává moje přítomnost. Pomůže mně a mým lidem přežít, ale má to jeden drobný háček. Nejsem si jistá, že mě nechá odejít. Nakladatelská anotace.

Dwanaście kobiet porwanych przez błękitnych kosmitów na lodowej planecie, gdzie Ziemianki walczą o przetrwanie i starają się nie zakochać. Liz Cramer, porwana z Ziemi, nie spodziewała się, że zostanie porzucona w tak nieprzyjaznym miejscu, a jej przeznaczonym partnerem będzie Raahosh, uparty i przerażający tubylec. Choć Raahosh wierzy w przeznaczenie, Liz nie jest przekonana, co do ich związku. Aby zyskać czas, zabiera ją do swojej jaskini, mając nadzieję, że z czasem Liz ulegnie jego namiętności. Jednak Liz, chora i wygłodniała, nie jest gotowa na miłość, nawet jeśli kosmiczny symbiont sugeruje, że Raahosh jest jej drugą połówką. Ruby Dixon, autorka, która samodzielnie wydała tę powieść, chciała stworzyć zabawną, seksowną historię, która z dystansem podchodzi do schematów popularnych erotyków i science fiction. Po kilku latach od wydania, seria zyskała ogromną popularność dzięki recenzji Emm Carter na TikToku, co przyczyniło się do jej obecności na listach bestsellerów. Dixon, zodiakalny Strzelec, tworzy romanse w duchu science fiction, koncentrując się na parach połączonych przeznaczeniem i radosnych zakończeniach, pragnąc dostarczyć czytelnikom pozytywnych, eskapistycznych narracji.
