Summary
Assigned to Echo Base before the Battle of Hoth, Rogue Squadron faces more than the Empire—ice, isolation, and each other. Lieutenant Arden Lynn balances a secret affair with Hobbie Klivian and a growing connection to Wedge Antilles, while Wes Janson spreads gossip faster than a comm signal. Between night patrols, near-misses, and the crack of blaster fire, love proves as fragile—and as resilient—as the ice they stand on.

Summary
Princess Leia was supposed to be unbreakable.
Then came Boba Fett.
What began as a horrendous foray into captivity became the ultimate seduction: whispered promises in the dark, bruising touches that lingered too long, and a hunger she should never have tasted. Torn between the noble cause of the Rebellion and the intoxicating pull of her captor, Leia surrenders to secret nights of danger and deceit. Love and ruin blur together as she is consumed by the most feared bounty hunter in the galaxy — and by the darkness awakening within herself.
She knows she should hate him. Instead, she can’t stop wanting him.

Summary
He was bred & trained to be all that he is — but what happens when the galaxy’s most feared bounty hunter starts asking innate questions about himself?
In a series of fragmented vignettes spanning nightmares, pleasurable flashbacks, and blood-drenched contracts, Boba Fett finds himself entangled not just in his work, but his lurid cravings, compulsions, and ghosts of his past that simply refuse to die. As jobs from the Empire grow more twisted and Jabba’s demands more perverse, Boba’s veneer of control begins to crack.
Haunted by the shadow of his father and entangled with the alluring Theelin songstress Rystáll Sant, Boba stumbles into a spiral of erotic power plays, blurred identity, and violent memory. Is he his father’s son, or is he just a clone lost in the echo of someone else's war?
Dreams speak. Flesh remembers. And death isn't the only predator stalking the stars.
