Description:

Can he tame her wild spirit long enough to give her his child?

Kai needs a child, an heir for his fortune. But from the moment the big Maltaffian lays eyes on his intended surrogate, he instantly feels an insatiable hunger only she can assuage. If the impatient little Terran wasn’t so anxious to hurry along their conception, maybe he could make her realize she needs him too.

Haven never expected to be a surrogate for an alien, but she’s always up for an adventure. When her best friend decides to volunteer with the top-secret fertility clinic, Haven jumps in right alongside her, with both feet. Though she might be a bit of a party girl right now, she knows she might be glad one day that she took the once-in-a-lifetime chance to restore her fertility.

And the free vacation and cash bonus will be the icing on the cake.

Then she meets Kai.

At first, she’s happy to ogle the mouth-wateringly beautiful Maltaffian male, and secretly very pleased to learn that they’ll be making his baby the old-fashioned way.

But then out of nowhere, he becomes wildly possessive, snarling at anyone who comes near her, making crazy statements about sharing his fortune and his fancy life with her, and swearing he’ll never let her go back to Terra-58 where he can’t protect her.

And that’s when things at the Midsummer Fertility Center start to get weird.

Start as a RECRUIT...become a SUPER-SOLDIER...end up a GALACTIC WARLORD.

Don your armor, load up on ammo, and get ready for your combat training. You don't become a badass by signing on the dotted line, you gotta earn it the hard way...same goes for your team. You have to learn to fight, how to work together, and how to lose...for the ancient origins of humanity on Earth are dark, devastating, and destined to return. Earth is going to lose, and lose badly when our time is up, but out of the ashes of defeat, we may be able to scrounge up a future if you and the other future warlords can learn how to overcome the losses and turn them to our advantage.

And the one advantage we have is the repository of ancient knowledge left behind when our former masters abandoned Earth during a civil war. They assume everyone died, but a few human slaves remained and now we live only because of that mistake.

But they didn't just make one. Their second was leaving the most heavily defended and valuable building on the planet intact because destroying it along with the others when they bugged out would be too time-consuming. Instead, they buried it and now we have limited access to the advanced technology and database inside. From it we know the truth about our ancestry, as well as the superhuman powers they laced into our genome...and because of those powers, any human not under their direct control carries with them an automatic death sentence.

So when we're found out, we're all going to die...unless you and your team can grow into the war leaders we need, figure out how to use the ancient technology as well as those who created it, and find a way to do the impossible and overcome a galactic empire millions of years old. An empire known as the V'kit'no'sat, which Earth hilariously misinterpreted as a group of extinct animals called the Dinosaurs.

She figures that transporting a bone marrow-eating serial killer from the cult's colony back to Earth is just another well-paying job that'll keep her mind off things. Upon discovering that the suspect in custody is an orphan girl—one that could pass for her much younger doppelgänger—she decides it's time to get some answers.Before she can piece together who the girl is and how their lives intertwine, a group of violent prisoners aboard Foxhound's starship breaks free. As the once-peaceful cultists take up arms in response, the Contractor teams up with her mechanized AI assistant and two of the cult's wayward members to stop the barbaric escapees and elude the grasp of the cult's radicalized leader. And when that’s done, she can focus on figuring out the secret behind the mysterious, potentially dangerous girl—but will she even want to know the truth?

Description:

The Response's terrifying sequel...

In 1985, two Soviet scientists fired a laser message at the Alpha Centauri star system in response to a cryptic signal resembling the primitive communications of our lowly ants. The message failed to reach its target.

Eight years ago, NASA transmitted a more sophisticated message at the same target using our latest technology.

Really bad move, NASA! The enraged aliens have decided to visit Earth with one purpose - our extinction - and they're considerably larger than their tiny offspring. It's time to meet the parents.

Gary Naiman has written fifteen novels. One of his booksis being considered for a motion picture.

Sampling of Amazon Reviews:
"Best part was the sighting of the alien war machines. The scenes in devastated Manhattan were vivid and powerful." (AC)

"The author's description of the beast rising above the trees in the moonlight really got to me." (AC)

"This is an excellent read for the genre." (ER)

"Fun read for anyone who loves timeless sci-fi horror flicks like Them or Starship Troopers." (GK)

"Although this is a sequel to The Response, its prologue gave enough background to enjoy this book independently. Fast paced action with extra-terrestrial influences constantly at play. Interesting characters with emotional draws. " (AC)
