Dating a Cougar

Worst epic fail of her scientific career? Falling for a cyborg she helped create. Kyra Winters never meant for her cyber science discoveries to be used for evil, but that's exactly what happened. Now returning Peyton 313's humanity is the last chance she'll ever have to atone. She can't get back the lost decade, but she can change the present by restoring the cyborg who was once Marine Captain Peyton Elliot. Certainly her grand plan for rectifying her mistakes didn't include madly kissing the confused, passionate Marine when he begged her to. The same scientific mind that constructed the cyborg creator code now warned her not to let Peyton's tempting offers of heaven cloud her rational decision making. Yet it's difficult to resist the cyborg she's restoring when he's also the most intriguing man she's ever known.

Sugar has a problem and Bad Panther has the purr-fect solution. Dr. Sugar Jennings is an Archaeologist and an Ancient Earth Historian. She’s also the host of an ancient artifact of enormous power. Now everyone wants Sugar dead because of it. They want the power she possesses, but she can’t let them get it. Desperation drives her to seek help but no one is willing to risk their life in the job of protecting hers. Or no one did until a mercenary panther shifter decided she might be worth the trouble. Now all she has to do is convince the ancient artifact she carries not to kill her panther guardian for trying to help her. Axel Rodu is a rogue panther shifter and the Guardians of Earth heir to the Lyran throne. His work for the paranormal agency is a special contract only, but even their toughest problems barely keep his boredom at bay. Has he earned the name Bad Panther? Depends on who you ask so long as you don’t ask his newest client. Ironically though, Axel has no intentions of using Dr. Sugar Jennings to worsen his reputation. He has one job to do concerning the nosy archaeologist and one job only. By order of his queen, whatever it takes, he must make sure Dr. Jennings stays alive until the artifact is done with her. **This is a mixed genre paranormal and science fiction romance containing lots of action and adventure.

Midlife Muse is a paranormal women's fiction novel and a new action and adventure tale from USA Today Bestselling Author, Donna McDonald. I may look like a 40-year-old woman, but inside I'm a goddess. My name is Goddess Atlanta. Haven't you heard of me? No? Bet you've heard of my twin sister, Athena, the Goddess of War. Sure. Everyone's heard of her.Shunned by my birth family, I grew up with the Muses as sisters and friends. Being a Muse sucked, though, and I failed at inspiring others. What can I say? Being a warrior is the song that sings in my blood. Just hand me a sword and move back while I call down lightning. Be careful though because my aim's not what it used to be. Becoming a 40-year-old and mostly mortal woman has taken a toll, especially on my knees.Because of my father, my entire pantheon is also mortal and dying. I have to find a worthy champion to help me save us all. Failure is not an option no matter how old or mortal I get.My name is Atlanta, Goddess of the Doomsday Prophecy. And this is my Mortal Midlife Story.WARNING: This new story is both paranormal (think Trolls, Pegasi, and Dragons) and women's fiction (think about growing older). Some fantasy and romantic elements are also included. This is the first book in my new series, Nine Heirs and a Spare, which has its roots in Greek mythology. You can count on the good guys winning some of their battles, but that's the only promise I can make. As with all my writing, there will also be lots of laughs along the way.

Midlife Muse: a Paranormal Women's Fiction Novel

Being a living experiment wasn't part of the scientific career she'd planned for herself. Despite her sharp scientific mind and her degree in bio-molecular genetics, Dr. Ariel Jones hasn't figured out how her life changed so much in a single day. Before she can blink and ask about what is going on, she is injected with a billion nanos and some very potent wolf blood. Now she can suddenly turn into a giant white wolf with the bloodlust of a starving animal. And she's an alpha...or so she is told by the even larger, very male, black wolf who was used to create her. Hallucination? She wishes. Whether human or wolf, Reed talks in her head and tells her how to handle things...or rather how to kill them...starting with the men who hold them all captive. Too bad he can't tell her how to put her life back like it was. Admittedly, there are perks to being a werewolf, such as meeting sexy werewolf guys like Matthew Gray Wolf. Science labs aren't overrun with sexy men in white coats. She also doesn't mind learning about a side of herself she never knew existed. It's great changing into a real wolf whenever she wants, but being a living experiment wasn't part of the scientific career she'd planned for herself. Neither was falling for the local werewolf alpha, but what else is a newbie werewolf caught in her burning time going to do?

Muse It or Lose It is a paranormal women’s fiction and fantasy novel and a new action and adventure tale from USA Today Bestselling Author Donna McDonald. Sometimes I just don’t understand my crazy life. On one hand, I can call lightning and save a trapped Dragon when I need to. On the other, I need reading glasses to read how many aspirins to take when my knee hurts. Despite being a foretold savior of my pantheon, nothing has spared me from my own mortal fate. I’m still aging, just like everyone else. With two tasks out of nine finished, and no one dying from our misadventures yet, I admit I’ve been feeling pretty good about myself. The Fates have finally stopped popping in on me, so I'm hoping I’m on the right track. And none of my family has stabbed me in the back this week. See? Good times. So I’m fine… mostly. Well, except my champion’s been a real pain to deal with lately. He’s sort of a dragon now and I’m afraid feeling special has gone to his head. Can anyone say entitlement issues? Anyone? I hope Cale gets a handle on his problems soon, because hey… I am the special one in our relationship. I’m the goddess. Yes. Okay. I admit tasks three and four aren’t looking like a whole lot of fun, but I trust Cale and I will get through them. I have to because failing means death. Everyone in my pantheon is still counting on me to stop the doomsday prophecy from coming true. All I can say is Gaia help me because I’m going to need all the help I get.
