I’m doing a few excerpts from HEIRESS OF THE NILE, my most recent ancient Egyptian paranormal romance.

The snippet – the POV of Senebkai, the heroine’s 9 year old brother. Jumped ahead a bit. A priestess has come into the room of the ...

June is the month for weddings and many sci-fi romance (SFR) stories lead to weddings — not all, some end with claiming a mate, pair bonding, becoming partners, cohabiting in the spaceship/space station/alien world, etc. Typically, the happy couple is contending with many more complications than the ins and outs of planning a wedding. I asked my friends at the Facebook SFR Brigade group to suggest some stories with weddings from their o...

As always, I recommend sampling before you buy! I have not read most of the new releases listed (although I always end up one-clicking a bunch as I prepare these posts L OL).

I thought I’d talk about some ‘hard’ science fiction I’ve been reading of late. This genre of SF deals more with science, technology and engineering, with much less (if any) emphasis on the emotions. Romance is often completely missing from the mix, or will have a minimal role to play. ‘Soft’ SF deals more with themes from the so-called softer sciences like sociology and psychology, and the plots incline more toward politics, history re...

SERVANT FOR AN ALIEN LEADER (INTERGALACTIC EXCHANGE PROGRAM BOOK 8) by Roxie Ray

I’m ready for a new start on a new planet…Failed farm. Failed relationship. Failed family. I’m done with Earth and excited for a life with whatever alien ...

This review contains spoilers…

I’m always ready for a new scifi movie so I was eager to watch “The Tomorrow War” streaming on Amazon Prime, starring Chris Pratt.

The snippet – switching to the POV of Senebkai, the heroine’s 9 year old brother. This is the lead up to his encounter with Hathor....

Note: I’ve been writing about scifi romance for a long time now and some portions of this post have been previously published on other platforms.

The husband-and- wife duo who comprise ‘Tiffany Roberts’ are an autobuy scifi romance author for me. I thought today for my occasional series of posts on books I love from favorite authors, I’d share five of my favorites from them. Right up front I must state this writing team excels at making me relate to, and care about heroes I normally would say I’...
