New Horizons
(2020)(A book in the Aethercurrent Chronicles: The Baron's Hand Saga series)
A novel by Heather Relken
♥ A steam-filled, multi-partner scifi romance ♥
•502 pages / 67 chapters / 175,000 words total•
Note: This was my debut novel as an author, written when I was about 19 years old and back when I couldn't afford an editor. I've gone through and cleaned up as many typos as I can, but please know this book has a quite youthfull narrative voice and isn't an accurate representation of what my current author style is today! Still, it's a reader-favorite so I'm leaving it available for new fans to discover ♥
Synopsis:
Top on the list of "things I didn't expect to happen this weekend" is:
-- Surprise sex with an alien-cyborg commander, which means I'm now the lady-mate in a weird marriage triangle with him and his legionnaire --
Though being taken to, and promptly busted out of, Area 51 by the aforementioned aliens is definitely a close second. I also didn't really bargain for how much I'd fall for these two extraterrestrial men. There are more than a few on this rig who find our relationship a violation of nature, though. And unfortunately they don't seem content to just judge us silently from afar.
No, these Turukai are more than willing to voice their disagreements. And when they threaten not just my happy little threesome, but all of humanity as well?
I might be forced to make one hell of a drastic decision.

What the beta readers have to say:
"Kudos to this author for originality and for an action packed adventure I didn't know I was getting. If this is [Relken's] first book, I am thoroughly excited to see how [her] writing grows." - Yongda
"I really adored this book; it was well written, engrossing, and dynamic. The characters were unique and distinct. The storyline was like nothing else I’ve ever read before and the sex scenes were creative and unique!" -Trena
"This story was so fun to read and the characters were amazing. Marine is great and I love how he changes from this character that immediately sets you on edge to this protective, sexy man who just dotes on his woman. His arc is by far my favorite. They all compliment each other and it works really well." -Brittney
"It’s always telling to me, if the book stays in my head days after I’ve read it (and even after I’ve started a new book), so you clearly have a really solid story build here. " - Gabrielle
"Did time pass? I don't know because I was so deep in the story. The fullness of the world created and its characters was truly masterful. I wish there were more books in this world that I could gobble up. Must have more!" - Anna
