Hello everyone! Thank you to all who visited my Weekend Writing Warriors post last weekend! Today I'm sharing another snippet from RET, the third book in my Kaddim Brothers series, which is set to release September 12, 2022. Snippet setup: Last weekend, Ret was answering media questions after ORIXA's win. This weekend, I'm continuing that scene, and slowly introducing the conflict. Enjoy! After a few more pictures, the majority of the media left. A handful of our fellow racers came in to congratulate us, but nowhere near as many as before planetary governments sponsored teams. The comradery between racers and teams had changed significantly since then. ORIXA was one of the last few teams managed by a racing firm with corporate sponsors from all over the universe. And the governments were pushing the Universal Space Racer Association to no longer allow such teams. I think they simply wanted their teams to win. Yet, until they trained harder, and spent money on better quality jets, they didn’t stand a chance. On the way to our accommodations, we stopped at a local eatery and picked up a couple japis to share. I wrapped an arm around Ilam’s shoulders as we headed inside to eat and change. “Come out with us tonight. I want to buy you a drink. Several, if you want. I want to celebrate you.” RET Kaddim Brothers book three Ret Kaddim has the perfect life. He’s a space racer, the leader of the most popular team across the universe. Always planning, practicing, and racing, he has no time for a relationship, but finds plenty of willing partners who agree to his one-night-only rule. Because there is no way he wants to end up in a relationship and stuck with a family like his younger brothers. He’s having too much fun for that. Ilam Nairan always dreamed of becoming a space racer. And thanks to a chance encounter with a retired racer, he is now living that dream. Far away from the mated and pregnant omega life his parents wanted him to have, he loves everything about his life. It’s perfect. But one night can change everything. Especially when too much alcohol is involved. Can these two teammates survive the resulting media storm? What will it mean for their careers? The future of the team? And for them? Ret is a sweet with knotty heat mm non-shifter mpreg sci-fi romance featuring an alpha space racer and an omega space racer who both believe they’ll always be single, snarky but loveable teammates, lots of space racing, endearing family members, an adorable baby, and a guaranteed happily ever after. If you enjoy teammates realizing they have feelings for each other, and all the obstacles those bring, be sure to download Ret today!

"I want to celebrate you." Feel the sizzle! He's in the fold now . . . right where he wants to be!

Great line. He wants to celebrate him. There's a grin on my face. 8/14/2022 09:50:58 am
I can understand his worry over the government taking over the racing organization. I wonder how this will affect their team. I liked his wanting "to celebrate you." Sweet. 8/14/2022 08:23:06 pm
Oh, those things definitely come into play in this story. Thanks, Diane! 8/14/2022 12:31:59 pm

That "celebrate you" could be taken several ways. I wonder which one Ilam is expecting? Great snippet! 8/14/2022 10:49:14 pm
That last line is interesting. He could mean that several ways. 8/15/2022 10:10:41 pm
This is a nice way to start things. Comments are closed.
