About this listen
A gargoyle imprisoned.
Captured, starved, and blinded, Tas hates humans. For 80 agonizing years, he’s plotted all the gruesome ways to exact his vengeance. Then one day, his captors make a fatal mistake. When the door to his cage opens, he’s ready to destroy the human on the other side. But a different instinct takes over when he scents the female. His mouth waters, and his fangs ache, demanding he make the fearless female his.
A single mom, desperate to save her kid.
Juniper owes a lot of money to a very bad man, and unless she does what he wants, he’ll hurt her kid. To clear her debt, all she has to do is drive a van and not ask questions. But when she hears a voice in the back, she realizes she may not only be a thief but also a kidnapper, and that’s where she draws the line. What she finds in the back isn’t the loot she expected, but it also isn’t a person. It’s a gargoyle…who intends to claim her as his mate.
Taken for Granite is a stand-alone novel in the collaborative series, the Khargals of Duras, featuring a grumpy gargoyle and an HEA.

Story
As the first humans allowed in Suevan space, there’s a lot riding on my all-woman team. Earth desperately needs their tech, and I’m determined to prove we can negotiate the price. Without their planetary defense systems, Earth is a sitting duck, ripe for invasion. Except the Suevan culture is nothing like ours. When I take part in what I think is a welcoming ceremony, I leave with more than I bargained for: a husband. A mate. Apparently, we’re there to marry them as payment—something the top brass on Earth doesn’t bother denying. Fantastic.

Story
Stop me if you’ve heard this story before. One minute Alice was camping, trying to connect with nature, then there’s this blinding white light. Gravity must have quit because Alice and her sleeping bag were floating off the ground. Classic alien abduction. She wakes up on an alien planet full of, you know, aliens. Outlaws. Rules are optional and people are property. So not cool. Then there’s a train robbery and she's getting abducted. Again. But this guy? He’s a giant lizard man, just a solid wall of muscle, scales, and bad attitude.

Story
A vrisha arrives in Grace's underwater city. He takes over one of the substations, forcing the workers out. At the whim of her job, Grace is unwillingly chosen to go below, maintain the station, and stay with the horned, devilish alien. That is how she comes to encounter Xora. An alien born from a race of dominant fighters and fierce hunters. He is as terrifying as he is mysterious. While also commanding, stubborn, unrelenting...and oddly mesmerizing. As her fear slips away, other emotions begin to take hold. And Grace finds she wants to know more.

Story
I signed up for a research mission with five other women. Instead, we crashed on an alien planet with too many dangers to count. Separated from the other women, I’m on my own until a huge alien with color-changing skin and a massive sword gets me out of a bad spot. I don’t understand Savair’s language, but I think he’s under the impression that I’m his. I am NOT his. I’m a 34-year old divorced scientist with no time for such nonsense. But if he can help me find the others in my group then perhaps I can play at being “his” for a while.

Story
As a third daughter on the farming colony of Meterion, Susan’s future prospects aren’t too promising. A pretty face, top-notch skills, and hard work mean nothing if your dowry doesn’t include fertile lands. With her 25th birthday approaching, and no suitors, her only way out is to settle for an arranged marriage through the PMA - the Prime Mating Agency. She just never expected to be paired with a grumpy, massive lizardman, and above all not to grow so fond of his scales and quirky ways.

My name is Alice, and I live in the Bugpocalypse. I survived my first post-apocalyptic winter, and spring is here. That’s bad news! With warm weather comes the endless swarms of deadly bugs. I need to forage for food, but there’s just one little problem. Okay, so “little” isn’t the best word to describe the fierce Xarc’n warrior who is obsessed with me. Kaj’k is freakin’ huge! And his sharp claws, pointy fangs, and massive horns are scary. I reject his gift of food and flowers, but my massively muscled alien hunter doesn’t get the hint.

Newly awakened, my ancillary heart beats for one reason only—to keep her safe.

Soon, I find myself helping her plan her home and talking about odd Earthling activities. What is a square dance, and must I do it?

Piper may say she doesn’t need love, but I'll do whatever it takes to win her heart.

Great standalone in the series
nice well packaged story and I was really surprised it was book 6 because it could have been the very start. Each book is done by a different author and narrator but unfortunately Audible doesn't have them all, but they are all stand alone stories so perfectly fine to just read/listen to the ones of most interest.
I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it for anyone that has ever watched a gargoyle cartoon ;)
