Nin: Earth Girls Aren't Easy (IDA) ~ Chapter One
Nin didnât know what to expect when they crash-landed in the patch of green behind the dwelling. A wave of heat blasted him when he opened the cockpit door. The second thing Nin noticed was the odd smell of chlorine coming from an unusually small pondâtheyâd landed next to an odd-looking body of water. As far as he could tell from the star map, they arrived at a planet called Earth. Nin walked through the ship with everything strewn about to the shuttle bay.
âIs everyone okay? Any injuries?â Nin yelled over his shoulder to Ferrix and Xavi.

A.C. James Is Creating Erotic Romance and Erotica
Why become a Patron?
I'm completely obsessed with all of the characters and worlds that I create. And this Patron is a way for me to bring you more backstory and content without writing 300+ page novels (but I've done, too!) -- and your support is a huge, magical reason why I can keep doing what I love. *squeezes in a hug* You'll have exclusive access to all my stories, future stories, draft chapters of new stories as I'm writing them, bonus scenes, behind-the-scenes tidbits, first looks, polls that you vote on, and more extras!
Experience the Story In New Ways
I'm a tech geek and old school gamer girl. I fell in LOVE with 'Choose Your Own Adventure' novels when I was in middle school. So, I decided to let readers be the main character with interactive stories and games in an app for Android and Apple devices. You can play them on your phone or tablet!
Goal
When I reach 3,000 patrons, I'll also write a side story that patrons suggest and vote on -- can be in ANY POV from ANY of my books (but must be a POV I've already written in novel format).

Her rules were simple:
1. Trust no one.
2. No repeats, no attachments.
3. Just mind-blowing orgasms.
Harper OâMalleyâs world wasnât complicated. Her career came first. She didnât want to get married, have kids, or any of that white-picket-fence-propaganda. Her favorite pastime? Hooking up with different men every night. Her days were spent as a high-profile attorney and Harper was good. She could fix anything. Until an encounter rocked her carefully constructed worldâŚ
Enter Parker. He canât deny his desire for the stunning and seductive Harper. He must confront a scandal that puts his career as a football player with the Miami Lightning in danger. Harper must represent him in a defamation case caused by a conniving woman claiming to be his ex-girlfriend. Will Harper trust the client sheâs representing is telling the truth and give into her growing attraction? Or will this con artist ruin both his skyrocketing career and any chance at love?

About The Book
Clara Parker was a small-town girl from Overlook, Nebraska who followed her dreams to New York but ended up working as a literary agent instead. On her way home for the holidays, she encounters a strange man and finds herself in possession of a unique book. Unexpected news from her sister, hilarious family gossip, and running into the man who once stole her heart force Clara to acknowledge the truth.
Successful restaurateur Luciano Ventura canât forget the passionate first love of a high school sweetheart. As the summer of their senior year came to a close, unforeseen events with the health of his father tore the young couple apart. A meddlesome sister helps these two former lovers discover undeniable truths about the choices theyâve made. He never thought tiramisu would lead to such a searing reunion, but only if he can convince Clara that she can live her dreams and be with him too.
Is a merry-ever-after the recipe this holiday season or is their relationship just yesterday's leftovers?
Reader Note: Formerly published as Make A Wish as part of a multiauthor project called Christmas Encounters in 2014.

EVER DARK IMMORTALS SERIES REVIEW
âI love these books! I am a huge fan of the Jeaniene Frostâs Night Huntress series, Darlynda Jones and her Charley Davidson books with Reyes Farrow, the Sylvia Day (S.J. Day) Marked series with Cain & Abel. My newest favorite is the Kresley Coleâs Arcana Series featuring Evie, Death, & Jack. And I can see Holly & Arie also embarking on such a butt-kicking awesome, light over darkness, against all odds, along with major hot sex. Please continue with the two since they have already captured our hearts! I listen to all above series over & over along with Ilona Andrews, Patricia Briggs, & Nalini Singh as I work. Please continue!!â -Robin

Why Should You Buy Here?
I'm so glad you asked! When you buy from an author directly, you're putting money back into their writing. Subscription services like Kindle Unlimited place heavy restrictions on authors and limit readers too. Readers can only borrow 20 books at a time in Kindle Unlimited, but you can't keep them. I don't know about you, but I love re-reading my favorite books! If a book is available in Kindle Unlimited, authors aren't allowed to make that book available anywhere else, not Barnes & Noble, Apple, Kobo, or GooglePlay. Certainly, not on their website. Special editions or swag boxes that readers love aren't allowed. That book exists only in Kindle Unlimited, and the author is paid roughly .004 cents per page for the first reading of the book.Â

I need to get something off my chest.
I'm going to share a story with you. It's not something I usually go around telling anyone, let alone talking about it publicly on YouTube or TikTok, but I want you to know that you don't need to feel shame for the choices you make. You don't owe anyone an explanation or need to justify your choice, and I want you to know that you're not alone. I won't say more because my video has a content warning.
