For as long as Dragon can remember, he’s lived in a lead-lined box. It might be for his own good, but he’s under no illusion he’s still a prisoner. Nuclear war has left the world uninhabitable. With radiation levels so high, the only way to survive is encased in lead. Dragon’s only connection to the world comes through competitive gaming. A community linked by high-speed networks with every gamer fighting for the monthly prize. A prize coveted almost as much as breathable air. But winning is far from easy. Maybe it’s the taking part that counts. Who’s Dragon kidding? He wants to win this month as much as any other. Except, this month isn't like any other. For Dragon, things are about to change. Connection: Neon Horizon book four is a fast-paced cyberpunk thriller. If you like dazzling neon dystopian landscapes, where entertainment, credits, and the latest street drugs are all worth more than human life, then you’ll love this hard-hitting grimy glimpse into the hyper-cities of the future.

Bryana is a little girl taking a long train ride to Liberty City for the annual Fall Festival and a long-awaited reunion with her friend Rabbit, who is...well, a rabbit. Through her letters to Bryana, Rabbit introduces the reader to the overconfident Dragon (who she believes is just a lizard); vain and mean Bonnie Fox; her social diva of a mother; scatterbrained Razzle, the otter; Ricket, the small rat, whose endless desire to fly results in a rocket ride that makes sausages rain down from the sky; and many other characters that make adjusting to life in a new town challenging for a small rabbit. As Rabbit makes friends, she discovers the meaning of community, and learns that diversity is pretty awesome.

She’s a genie freed from her bottle. Only a dragon’s love can protect her now. Conley’s two brothers did the impossible: found their mates. With the threat to supernatural beings everywhere hanging overhead, Conley’s got too many bodies to guard to even dream about finding his own. Until he overhears a woman’s desperate voice on the phone, and for reasons he can’t explain, he’s just as desperate to save her. Nyx’s ability to read other people’s visions made her the council’s most wanted tool. Until she used it against them and became a target. Cornered, a heartbeat from capture and probable torture, she’s rescued by someone she didn’t even know existed. A man for whom she feels nothing. Nothing but desire. She’s not sure if she’s thrilled—or terrified. For herself, and for him. If Conley can just look once into her eyes, he’ll know for sure what’s driving his dragon wild. Except Nyx seems determined to look anywhere but at him. Conley’s waited hundreds of years for his mate. He can be patient a bit longer. Talking his dragon into that strategy? That’s a tall order. But when Nyx is kidnapped by the very evil they’re sworn to defeat, time could be running out for them both...
