Mated on Hades by Golden Angel releases July 6th!
Keep reading for an out-of-this-world excerpt!
The Celestial Mates agency always knows what - or who - you need.
Tarrik would do anything to avoid breaking his mother's heart, so he begrudgingly signs up for Celestial Mates and agrees to come home and settle down once the agency finds his match. There's just one catch: he's not ready to give up his free and easy life traveling the galaxy. And he's doing exactly as his mother asked, so what will it hurt if he makes himself as unappealing as possible on his mate application?
Juliette is a woman on the run. Her attitude, and more importantly her hacking skills, have pissed off all the wrong people. Now the target of a contract hit, she's decided the solution to her problems is to leave the planet as fast as she can. The Celestial Mates program is exactly what she needs. By the time her "mate" realizes she's impossible to live with, hopefully it will be safe for her to return to earth. She wasn't counting on a seriously hot alien who looked like the devil and could do the most sinful things with his tail...
The sparks fly at first meeting when their chemistry ignites. But they can barely stand to be in the same room with each other.
They shouldn't work at all.
But Celestial Mates always knows best.
Excerpt
In the dark, her body thrumming with sexual frustration, Jules was no closer to sleep than she had been when the lights had been turned on. Despite the wall of cushions between them, she was far, far too away of the insanely sexy alien on the bed with her, less than a foot of distance separating them. How much body heat did a Hadesian emanate? Because she swore she could feel him.
Then she really did feel something, touching her ankle between the sheets, and she shrieked, kicking.
"Sorry, sorry!" Tarrik's deep voice actually sounded sincere. "That was my tail, sorry."
Jules' heart pounded so hard it felt like it was going to go right out of her chest as her fear of the unknown settled.
"Well get your tail under control," she hissed at him, pulling her legs up slightly, closer to her body and telling herself that she definitely was not going to think about the possibilities of a tail that had a mind of its own.
"It's not exactly easy," he hissed back. "I can smell your arousal. So don't bother lying and telling me that you aren't."
Heat flushed her cheeks and she was very glad the room was dark enough that he wouldn't be able to see her blush. "That's just a physical response - and you were the one who started jerking off while I was in the shower!"
"You stripped down in front of me!"
"You said you weren't attracted to me!"
"I lied, alright?!" There was a strange ominous red glow in the darkness and suddenly cushions went flying. Tarrik loomed over her, wings spread slightly in his agitation. Holy fracking radiation! He freaking glowed in the dark! "I'm attracted to you, okay? That doesn't mean I want to mate you."
"I don't want to mate you either, you overgrown ignoramus."
"But you want to fuck me, right?" The glow of his skin brightened a little more, illuminating her body as he taunted her, his own sexual frustration clear on his face. It was eerie and sexy all at the same time and this time when his tail curled around her ankle, the heat of his flesh warming her skin, she didn't jump or kick.
"Oh shut up and do something useful with your mouth," she snarled back, reaching up to grab his face and pull his lips down to meet hers.
