Waiting on Wednesday (WOW) June 6, 2012

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Lilly Cain has a new book in The Confederacy Treaty series due out June 25.  I love the series and am waiting on Undercover Alliance the next book in the series.  If you are a Science Fiction Romance fan you need to check this series out.

Here is what Goodreads says about Undercover Alliance.

Sarina is scarred. Her L'inar, the curving nerve lines that enable Inarrii to experience their full sexuality, were severed in battle and she can no longer reach completion. Until she accepts a job as bodyguard to the human ambassador John Bennings, and is astonished to discover that they share a mental bond—a mirrored pathway of thoughts that will allow Sarina to climax.

When John's the target of an attack and they are forced into hiding, he's not sorry to be in close quarters with the compelling Sarina. They explore their erotic connection, and John is happy to demonstrate that humans have more sexual skills than Sarina thought.

To prove that she is whole and rejoin her Inarrii clan, Sarina needs John to bring her to climax in public in accordance with tradition. With a roomful of Inarrii and humans watching, will John be willing to perform as Sarina needs—and will their public display make John vulnerable to another attack?

I have Undercover Alliance on pre-order from Amazon.

The Naked Truth, the Confederacy Treaty by Lilly Cain

Science Fiction Romance

The Naked Truth is another free eARC I received from Carina Press.  I read and liked the story in Alien Revealed, the first book in the Confederacy Treaty series, and The Naked Truth has an equally good story.  While The Naked Truth can stand-alone it did not hurt to have the background from reading Alien Revealed.

Lilly Cain says in her note to her readers:

“Welcome back to the world of the Confederacy Treaty where the fate of Earth lies in the hands of lovers from different worlds.  On the surface they are very different.  Underneath, they are the same, driven by motivations and emotions that revolve around the heart.”

Captain Susan Branscombe, an Earth pilot captured and tortured by terrorist who want to stop the Confederacy Treaty, and Asler Kiis, a Confederacy Examiner who must go into Susan’s mind to find the truth about her capture, are the main characters in The Naked Truth.  Susan must prove that she did not commit treason and Asler is her only hope.  If they can form a bond it will be important to both Earth and the Confederacy. 

Neither The Naked Truth nor Alien Revealed is a full-length novel but in both novellas Lilly Cain does a very good job of world and character building.  For SFR fans the Confederacy Treaty is a series worth following.

Carina Press published The Naked Truth by Lilly Cain in 2011.
