Four warring races. Three men she can never trust. And one galactic armageddon only their forbidden passion can prevent.
In the icy depths of space, a galactic mating contest is turning deadly, and the stakes are atomic armageddon. To unite four warring races, rebel princess-turned-cybergirl Kaia chooses the most dangerous possible mate in Zorin—a sexy, scourge-of-the-galaxy space pirate. Yet she’s seriously tempted by Dex, the imperial enforcer who’s Zorin’s ultimate nemesis…and his mouthwatering obsession. Kaia burns for both of them, but Dex and Zorin are lethal enemies. And the galaxy’s most powerful telepath, the mesmerizing lover who betrayed her and nearly destroyed her, is a major distraction for all three of them.
Can two mortal rivals defy a star-spanning empire that crucifies men for prohibited sexual unions? Can a runaway princess dare to trust the enigmatic lover who abandoned her to scandal and disgrace? With the fate of billions now poised in the balance, can four fiercely distrustful allies survive a savage mating contest, navigate an interstellar war, and consummate the explosive passion between them…without dying in the flames?
Renegade Angel is a steamy, angsty, enemies-to-lovers fast-burn MMMF sci fi poly action romance and Book 2 in the Astral Heat universe, where Star Wars meets 50 Shades by way of The Hunger Games. It can be enjoyed as a standalone, or can be read after Interstellar Angel for maximum pleasure. This book features explicit M/M, M/F, and MMMF action, turbocharged outer space adventure with a fearless heroine, three bi heroes, a cliffhanger series that ends with a guaranteed happily-ever-after, and a whole lot of heat.

If Zorin’s living room was a Mogadon reactor, the core was about to go critical.
Kaia stood riveted just inside the door like her boots were bolted to the floor. With Dex at her back, hands hard and possessive at her waist, breath harsh with craving in her ear. Watching one of her five favorite fantasies play out in real life.
The one where Ben focused all that formidable sex appeal and seductive skill he’d honed over a decade as a Valyrian stud pony on making Zorin lose his steady-eddie composure and unchaining the ruthless, tenderly violent savage that lurked just beneath her space pirate’s easygoing exterior.
And Ben had definitely done it.
All tattoos and leather stretched over a mouthwatering expanse of muscle, Zorin pivoted from where he’d trapped Ben in the corner to confront them, massive chest heaving with effort, rugged face ruthless with arousal, lidded eyes burning with intent.
READ MORE“About time you two turned up.” He dragged a rough hand through his hair. “We were, uh, waiting for you. At least, one of us was waiting.”
He slanted Ben a look that smoked with wrathful purpose—the silent promise that he fully intended to give Ben Nero everything he’d just been begging for.
And then some.
Kaia’s lifemate took his time smoothing back his raven hair and disentangling himself gracefully from Zorin’s looming body. Looking sullen and debauched as a rock star, all gorgeously disheveled and barefoot, erection shoving against skin-tight black breeches. Not at all daunted by the pirate’s hard hand still gripping his shoulder.
Pinning him to the wall like a sand wolf claiming captured prey. Claiming him every way he could.
An aura of sexual aggression, charged with relentless intent, crackled in the air between her two lovers.
Asteroids, it’s hot in here.
