Shades of Dark(sequel
to Gabriel's Ghost): July 2008
For
two fugitive lovers, space has no haven,
no mercy, no light—only... SHADES OF DARK
Before
her court-martial, Captain Chasidah “Chaz” Bergren was the
pride of the Sixth Fleet. Now she’s a fugitive from the “justice”
of a corrupt Empire. Along with her lover, the former monk,
mercenary, and telepath Gabriel Ross Sullivan, Chaz hoped
to leave the past light-years behind—until the news of her
brother Thad’s arrest and upcoming execution for treason.
It’s a ploy by Sully’s cousin Hayden Burke to force them out
of hiding and it works.
With
a killer targeting human females and a renegade gen lab breeding
jukor war machines, Chaz and Sully already had their hands
full of treachery, betrayal—not to mention each other. Throw
in Chaz’s Imperial ex-husband, Admiral Philip Guthrie, and
a Kyi-Ragkiril mentor out to seduce Sully and not
just loyalties but lives are at stake. For when Sully makes
a fateful choice changing their relationship forever, Chaz
must also choose—between what duty demands and what her heart
tells her she must do.
“No
one blends romance and science fiction like Linnea Sinclair,
and Shades of Dark is another sizzling page-turner!”
– Mary Jo Putney, author of A Distant Magic
"Linnea
Sinclair takes space opera to a whole new level in this intense,
sensual intergalactic adventure full of raw emotions, tough
choices, and a love that spans the stars. An instant addition
to my very small keeper list, and a must-buy not only for
fans of science fiction-romance, but for fans of gut-wrenching,
sexy, high-stakes romantic adventures."

Nominee!
The
Down Home Zombie Blues
For
this mismatched pair of crimefighters,
the most dangerous thing could be their own cosmic attraction…
In
this steamy, suspenseful new thriller from RITA award-winning
author Linnea Sinclair, a dangerously sexy space commander
and an irresistibly earthy Florida police detective pair up
to save the civilized galaxy…but can they save themselves
from each other?
Bahia
Vista homicide detective Theo Petrakos thought he’d
seen it all. Then a mummified corpse and a room full of futuristic
hardware sends Guardian Force commander Jorie Mikkalah into
his life. Before the night’s through, he’s become
her unofficial partner—and official prisoner—in
a race to save the Earth. And that’s only the start
of his troubles.
Jorie’s
mission is to stop a deadly infestation of bio-mechanical
organisms from using Earth as its breeding ground. If she
succeeds, she could save a world and win a captaincy. But
she’ll need Theo’s help, even if their unlikely
partnership does threaten to set off an intergalactic incident.
Because
if she fails, she’ll lose not just a planet and a promotion,
but a man who’s become far more important than she cares
to admit.
The
universe isn’t what it used to be. With the new alliance
between the Triad and the United Coalition, Captain Tasha
“Sass” Sebastian finds herself serving under her
former nemesis, bio-cybe Admiral Branden Kel-Paten—and
doing her best to hide a deadly past. But when an injured
mercenary falls into their ship’s hands, her efforts
may be wasted …
Wanted rebel Jace Serafino has information that could expose
all of Sass’ secrets, tear the fragile Alliance apart—and
end Sass’s career if Kel-Paten discovers them. But the
bio-cybe has something to hide as well, something once thought
impossible for his kind to possess: feelings...for Sass. Soon
it’s clear that their prisoner could bring down everything
they once believed was worth dying for—and everything
they now have to live for…

Being
divine has never been more dangerous...
Raheiran
Special Forces Captain Gillaine Davré has just woken
up in some unknown space station, wondering where the last
three hundred years have gone. The last thing she remembers
is her ship being attacked. Now it seems that while she was
time-traveling, she was ordained a Goddess…
Gillaine’s only hope of survival rests with dangerously
seductive Admiral “Mack” Makarian, who suspects
her of being a smuggler—or worse. But he can’t
begin to imagine the full extent of it. For Gillaine is now
Lady Kiasidira, holy icon to countless believers, including
Mack—a man who inspires feelings in her that are far
from saintly…feelings she knows are mutual. But when
their flirtation is interrupted by a treacherous enemy from
the past, Gillaine’s secret—and secret desires—could
destroy them both….

GABRIEL'S
GHOST: Oct 2005
2006 RITA(c) Award Winner!
A
life-and-death battle where giving up the ghost has a whole
new meaning...
After a decade of cruising interstellar patrol ships, former
Captain Chasidah Bergren, onetime Pride of the Sixth Fleet,
finds herself court-martialed for a crime she didn’t
commit—and shipped off to a remote prison planet from
which no one ever escapes. But when she kills a brutal guard
in an act of self-defense, someone even more dangerous emerges
from the shadows.
Gabriel Sullivan—alpha mercenary, smuggler, and rogue—is
supposed to be dead. Yet now this seductive ghost from Chaz’s
past is offering her a ticket to freedom—for a price.
Someone in the Empire is secretly breeding jukors: vicious
and uncontrollable killing machines that have long been outlawed.
Gabriel needs Chaz to help him stop the practice before it
decimates imperial space. For Chaz, it’s a matter of
survival. For Sully it means facing the truth about who—and
what—he really is. The mission means putting their lives
on the line—but the tensions that heat up between them
may be the riskiest part of all.
