Like everyone else, Dylan McLeod hates the oppressed world he is forced to live in, but unlike everyone else, Dylan McLeod is determined to change it. Well into the future, humanity shares a distant planet with three alien species. One alien species, however, the vexors, have had a complete stranglehold over the rest of the population for the last three hundred years. Led by their supreme leader, Sholtar, the vexors regulate unjust rules and policies that only apply to the other species. Originally lost and disengaged with no real direction in life, Dylan copes by catching up with his best friend Tarun and working a job he hates at his Father's factory. All that changes after the tragic and unexpected death of his father drives him to rebel against this alien tyranny that rules over the planet. He'll soon realise, though, just why no one has even tried to stop this regime before.

And a Christmas house party that turns love into a dangerous game. The Earl of Abbington is not a daring man. Responsible for the care of an opium-addicted uncle, George’s life poses dangers to a bride that he’ll never risk. It’s why he avoided the independent and kind Lady Jane last year, despite her brother’s request he protect her during her season. His neglect no doubt led to Jane’s tattered reputation.

Her daring spirit ruined her reputation, her family’s social standing, and her brother’s marital prospects. But a Christmas house party attended by a coterie of willing suitors can put everything right. Plain of face and ordinary of intellect, Jane knows she’ll never find love. And she doesn’t want it anyway. Love is the most daring thing a woman can do, after all. Instead, she’ll develop a system to test her suitors and discover the best husband for a practical sort of marriage. Jane needs George’s help choosing a husband, but George soon realizes he can’t give it without betraying his own heart. Together, they must find the courage to face the dangers of love or lose the love of a lifetime. In this friends-to-lovers Regency romance by USA Today bestselling author Charlie Lane, an independent lady and a cautious earl must do the most daring thing of all—fall in love.
