To Own Two Suns by Fran Tabor
It’s the beginning of the 22nd century. Captain Jerry Jerrison, head scientist for the first manned flight to explore the outer solar system, has dreamed of meeting aliens since childhood. As they approach Pluto, his ship encounters what seems to be an abandoned alien spaceship.
Muni, the sole occupant, is in a state of Deep Sleep. The ship’s AI (Artificial Intelligence) learns the human spaceship is failing. The AI tricks Jerrison and his crew into boarding the safer alien craft.
When Muni awakens, he pretends he came for the benefit of the human race.
Reality is more sinister. He is there to claim our solar system for his clan. If he fails, his entire family will be killed. Muni is their last hope. Human existence makes his claiming our solar system impossible.
As the novel progresses, Captain Jerrison and Muni must find a way to work together to save both Muni’s clan and the human race.
Morgi civilization will accept humans as True People if and only if Jerrison can personally prove human greatness. Jerrison the Scientist must become Jerrison the Warrior.
Morgi Law: Only against great odds can greatness be revealed.
The immense odds against Jerrison are great enough to win Morgi recognition.
If he fails, all humanity and Muni’s clan will be exterminated. Failure is so certain, Muni’s enemies are already positioning themselves to exterminate humanity and claim on sun.

Quartermaster by Marilyn Barr
Catalina
He violated me. Don Rodrigo took my family’s business, home, and titles, but he will never own me. I’m on the run. He’s threatened to expose my secret. My last hope is to intercept the ship carrying my dowry before our match is permanent. Trusting pirates to give me a fair share is foolish but not as much as staying on the same island as my attacker…
Chub
The letter from our arch-nemesis was written in feminine calligraphy but our nutmeg Captain Teeth didn’t notice. Blimey that because the author of the letter is my lady love. I’d bet my last doubloon. If only she didn’t shrink away from my touch… Killing every scoundrel who dared to hurt her isn’t helping…but it cools the rage I hold inside.
Can Chub teach Catalina to assemble her shattered fragments into the strong woman she wants to be or is she too broken to believe in herself? Will she accept a pirate’s promise of true love or was the Mortar & Pestle’s message too late for lonely Chub to claim his lady love?

In his efforts to track his items down, will Thomas keep his agreement to bring the pirates to Jackson’s aid and achieve America’s first victory as a new country? Or will pride bring them all to defeat?

Will the enemy of his enemy become his friend?
Another impossible task, or so it seems. But can the Pale Rider rise to the occasion once more, save the lives of hundreds, and keep his own neck out of a noose?

How many years did I drag my ass from one small town to another, singing and bartending to make ends meet? I’ve lost count. As a matter of fact, I lost every memory of my life before the age of seventeen. And that’s not even the weirdest part. At night, in my dreams, I’m guided by a drop-dead gorgeous, panty-wetting fantasy who makes my body sing and claims to be my Guardian.
When the stunning man miraculously shows up on my doorstep, I don’t know whether to jump his bones or shoot him in the head. But the second his lips touched mine; it triggered an explosion of suppressed memories I was better off not knowing. And the things that go bump in the night? Yeah, those are real, and apparently, I’m some prophesied bringer of peace to all the monsters.
Not sure what dickwad wrote that thing, but this girl can’t even get through her day without coffee. How the hell does Mr. Tall Dark And Handsome expect me to face off with my greatest fear and embrace my so-called destiny?
We are so screwed.
