Throwback Thursday – Dark Thoughts
Kralj, the all powerful, all knowing dark hero of Dark Thoughts, first appeared in Chasing Mayhem. He is the Ruler of the Refuge and he would be the first being to confess he’s a bit of a monster. He literally EATS his enemies and not in a sexy way.
Dita, the assassin heroine of Dark Thoughts, is also a bit of a monster. She kills her targets and she enjoys dealing out those deaths. She also might be the only being in the universe who isn’t afraid of Kralj.
She finds him sexy. And he doesn’t know what to do with THAT. (grins)
Can love redeem a monster?
The Refuge is home to some of the most violent beings in the universe. Kralj, its leader, reigns over the remote outpost with terrifying ease, ruthlessly squashing any rumors of rebellion, killing anyone who breaks his rules. Primitive, deadly, powerful, he’s a monster, scarred both on his face and his soul. He has never met a being he couldn’t control.
Until he meets her.
Dita has one mission—to kill the three targets claiming sanctuary within the Refuge. Or so she claims. For the first time in his long lifespan, Kralj isn’t certain of another being’s intentions. The tiny assassin is immune to his powers, her thoughts unreadable. He can’t predict her movements, can’t control her, can’t stop wanting her.
Dita is rare, as unique as he is, and, to keep the residents of the Refuge safe, Kralj will have to kill her. But first, he’ll touch her, taste her, show her how passionate the beast inside him can be.
Dark Thoughts is a STAND-ALONE SciFi Romance.
The hero might be tall, dark, and scarred but don’t be fooled by his appearance.
He’s truly a monster.
This story is not for readers with delicate sensibilities.

The Similarity Of Alien Planets
Humans have adapted specifically to life here on Earth.
The range of acceptable oxygen levels in breathable air, for us, for example, is very narrow. The optimal oxygen level for humans is about 21 percent. If oxygen levels fall below 19.5 percent for an extended period of time, bad things start to happen. If oxygen levels increase above 23.5 percent for an extended period of time, bad things start to happen.
We’re as sensitive to other gases and minerals. And to temperature (which is why a 1.5C increase is a BIG deal). And to gravity.
And…well…to almost everything else around us.
What this, unfortunately, means is for us to be able to live naturally (i.e. outside of a climate-controlled structure) on another planet, that planet has to closely resemble Earth.
The human females in my cyborg romances might temporarily visit planets with different specs. But they have to wear suits while venturing outside their ships.
They will be found and/or want to live permanently on alien planets that are similar to our own wonderful Earth.

Throwback Thursday – Dark Thoughts
Dark Thoughts is one of my favorite stories I’ve ever told.
Kralj is tall, dark and scarred. He is a bit…menacing. He likes to literally EAT his enemies and not in a sexy way. His powers are off the chart. He is definitely at the top of the universe’s food chain.
Dita, his destined mate, is absolutely fearless. She is human, is not at all immortal like Kralj is yet she’s not afraid of him or of dying. She is the light to his darkness.
And they work. They’re magical together.
Can love redeem a monster?
The Refuge is home to some of the most violent beings in the universe. Kralj, its leader, reigns over the remote outpost with terrifying ease, ruthlessly squashing any rumors of rebellion, killing anyone who breaks his rules. Primitive, deadly, powerful, he’s a monster, scarred both on his face and his soul. He has never met a being he couldn’t control.
Until he meets her.
Dita has one mission—to kill the three targets claiming sanctuary within the Refuge. Or so she claims. For the first time in his long lifespan, Kralj isn’t certain of another being’s intentions. The tiny assassin is immune to his powers, her thoughts unreadable. He can’t predict her movements, can’t control her, can’t stop wanting her.

Muse Food – Birds And Beings In The Sky
One of the (many) things I’m very conscious of when I write stories set on alien planets is…
There would be activity in the sky also.
Look at the Earth. There is SO much livable sky above us. And birds and butterflies and other lifeforms take advantage of that space.
These birds were spotted off a beach in Florida, USA.
And here is one of their buddies. (grins)
The space above an alien planet would likely be utilized also. If the planet was rich in resources, the skies would likely be quite crowded with lifeforms.

A female has to do what a female has to do to save the universe.

Frogs And Alien Planets
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I recently visited our local science center where they had a great display of various brightly-colored frogs.
These frogs have evolved to be seen, to stand out in their lush predominantly green environments.
But I can imagine alien worlds where they are camouflaged, where their environments are so brightly colored they blend in.
I’ll likely use these froggies as inspiration for future story settings!

Throwback Thursday – Dark Thoughts
Dark Thoughts is my bust-a-reading-rut Romance. If you want a hero who is unlike any other you’ve read, Kralj, the all-knowing, all-powerful Ruler of the Refuge, is your male.
He has almost unlimited powers and likes to literally EAT his enemies. The scariest beings in the universe are terrified of him. Kralj, being an intelligent male, is unsettled by his own abilities.
Dita is his match. The pint-sized human assassin doesn’t appear to be Kralj’s equal at first. But she is fearless, has hidden skills and a wild way of looking at life.
I love this couple and I love this story.

Throwback Thursday – Dark Thoughts
If you’re in a Halloween-type of mood as I am and you’re looking for a Halloween-themed romance to read, Dark Thoughts would be my pick of all my stories.
Kralj is a modified humanoid and unique but he DOES have a vampire vibe to him. He drinks blood (well…he eats his enemies and blood IS part of that). He can read most minds. He believes he’s a monster.
His human heroine, Dita, believes she’s a monster also. The pint-sized assassin isn’t scared of anyone, including Kralj. She is the sunshine to his darkness and very much his equal.

Throwback Thursday – Dark Thoughts
When Kralj, the all-knowing, all-powerful hero of Dark Thoughts, first appeared in one of the cyborg romances (Chasing Mayhem), I knew he would, some day, be featured in his own story. This enemy-eating modified humanoid was too fascinating, too mysterious not to investigate.
His heroine, Dita, is 100.0000% human yet is fully his match. She is the one being he has encountered in his long lifespan whose mind he can’t read, can’t control.
This is a true enemy-to-lovers romance. The two of them try to kill each other. Their love is that passionate, that wild. No rules apply.

Throwback Thursday – Dark Thoughts
Valentine’s Day is on Sunday. I don’t know why but, when buddies ask me which of my stories they should read on Valentine’s Day, I always mention Dark Thoughts first.
Yes, Kralj, the enemy-eating, all powerful, all knowing ruler, is top of mind for this love it or hate it celebration. (laughs) I think it is because I associate red with Valentine’s Day and there is a LOT of red in this story. Blood is spilled. Crimson sprays are everywhere.
Kralj’s relationship with Dita, his tiny yet fierce human assassin, is so very special. They have their own views of romance (it often involves ending lifespans) and they are magical as a couple.
