Book Two of the award-winning series, THE PHOENIX ADVENTURES.
He lost it all: his career, his woman, his sanity. On a deadly mission to the lawless Devil's Nebula, Commander Zayn Phoenix's life imploded. Now the former Strike Wing pilot fills his days with dangerous adventures alongside his treasure hunter brothers. But his nights are haunted by nightmares of one unforgivable act. Then a sexy assassin lures him into a hunt, an assassin with the face of a dead woman.Â
Ria Dante wants her freedom from the Assassin's Guild and only one man can help her. A man she's been dreaming about for months. She needs the oh-so-sexy Zayn--but she never expected to feel so drawn to him. Or to lust after his lean, muscled body and charming grin.Â
Zayn and Ria embark on a perilous adventure for an ancient artifact used in an infamous assassination--of old Earth president, Abraham Lincoln. An adventure that will take them straight into the heart of the Devil's Nebula, and force them both to face the heart-wrenching ghosts of their pasts.Â
Note to readers: This sci fi romance contains a lot of action (think explosions, aliens and assassin droids), cool offsiders (a teenaged bomb expert and some sexy treasure hunting brothers) and a steamy romance (lots of sexy times between a charming ex-fighter pilot and a deadly assassin). This is treasure hunting sci-fi style. So if you like it fast, and fun, and sexy, this is for you!Â
Includes preview of Book 3 of the Phoenix Adventures series, On a Rogue Planet.Â
Q & A with the Author
Q - How would you describe the Phoenix Adventures series?
A - Treasure hunters in space! A few readers have said it's like Indiana Jones set far into the future. All the books in the series are fast, fun thrill-ride treasure hunts for old Earth artifacts. There is lots of action, adventure, space opera, and of course, romance. I'm thrilled the books in the series have won so many awards from a SFR Galaxy Award for Most Fun New Series to a Prism Award for Best Futuristic Romance (On a Rogue Planet) to the Romance Writers of Australia Romantic Novella of the Year (Beneath A Trojan Moon).
Q - Why did you want to write the series?
A - I love action, adventure and romance. And I love science fiction romance and all the endless possibilities. Combine all that with a fascination with ancient artifacts and the Phoenix Adventures were born. I really wanted to capture what the expeditions of old must have felt like - trekking through jungles or desert sands and stumbling across crumbling ruins. Since all the good stuff has been found nowadays, I looked to the future and jetted off into space.Â
Q - What order should I read the books in?
A - All the Phoenix Adventures books are stand-alone adventures - many readers have entered the series with later books in the series. However, characters from the early stories do appear in later books, so I think it adds something to the reading experience to read them in order. Here's the order I suggest:
- Among Galactic Ruins (prequel)Â
- At Star's EndÂ
- In the Devil's NebulaÂ
- On a Rogue PlanetÂ
- Beneath a Trojan Moon (novella)Â
- Beyond Galaxy's EdgeÂ
- On a Cyborg Planet (novella)Â
- Return to Dark EarthÂ
- On a Barbarian World Â
- Lost in Barbarian Space
- Through Uncharted SpaceÂ
- Beyond Distant Stars (coming soon)
About Anna: I'm passionate about all things action romance. I love stories that combine the thrill of falling in love with the excitement of action, danger and adventure. I write about people overcoming unbeatable odds and achieving seemingly impossible goals. I like to believe it's possible for all of us to do the same.
