I’ve got one last book coming out this year: the fourth and final book of the Triune Alliance Brides series. This book follows the story of the heroine of the first book, Triple Burn, and will be published by December 31, 2025. Here’s the back cover copy:
Trafficked by her own government in exchange for alien tech, Ursula found unexpected happiness on the planet Uribern with her bonded warrior triad. Then one of them was killed, and everything began to fall apart.
Her surviving mates, Bran and Gil, are being deployed on increasingly frequent and deadly missions. It’s no accident. The Council Supreme is working to shatter what’s left of their bond. Ursula, a rare and fertile woman, is too valuable to be left with a broken triad. The government wants her reassigned, controlled, and bred.
She tries to hold on—for her son, for her art, and for the mates she loves. But loneliness claws at her. So does the Council’s tightening grip.
Then comes Zul, a battle-scarred berserker who has already lost his bonded brothers. When bandits attack, he saves Ursula and her child, pledging to protect them until her mates return. But Zul wants more than honor. He wants her, body and soul.
Bran and Gil still grieve. Zul wants to claim. Ursula is the bridge between them all, but the government will not let her go without a fight. They want to use her. She just wants to survive. But her love, her presence, and her refusal to break may be the spark that sets everything ablaze.
This steamy sci-fi romance features a protective alpha outsider, triad dynamics, and a fierce heroine whose existence becomes the heart of a revolution she never asked for.
The series’ first book, Triple Burn, broke the one hard and fast rule of the romance genre: a “happily ever after” or “happily for now” ending. The ending of this book was more realistic for a woman “married” to warriors sent to battle: it was bittersweet. Readers did not appreciate that. So, her story simmered on the proverbia back burner of my mind while I did other things and wrote other stories. Finally—finally—this year, the conclusion to her story germinated in my mind. That’s what Four Play is. If you’re an aficionado of the romance genre, then you know the ending: it’s an HEA. What you also know is that how our heroine gets there is the fun part. We read romance for the journey, not the destination.
If you haven’t read Triple Burn, then I hope you will to get the full experience of Ursula’s story. Stay tuned for the release date!
