We love librarians! (I mean, we are writing a series about them!) One of the big reasons we decided to partner with a traditional publisher was to help us form relationships with libraries across the world. We also have a fairly extensive backlist of self-published books that are very affordable (and have no circulation limits!) so we’d love for you to check them out! Learn more about the various series below.

The Mercenary Librarians series kicks off in 2020 from Tor with Deal With the Devil, which received starred reviews from Bookpage and Booklist and was favorably reviewed by Kirkus, Publisher’s Weekly, and Library Journal.
“Compelling characters, white-knuckle action, and deceptively smooth worldbuilding make this first Mercenary Librarians book a satisfying and cinematic escape.” ― Booklist Starred Review
“Rocha capably deploys found family and forbidden love tropes while keeping readers on their toes with unpredictable action beats. This postapocalyptic tale of espionage and romance will have readers eager to know what happens next.” ― Publishers Weekly
“…a high-action, high-stakes sf romance. Intriguing characters, tragic backgrounds, and a few twists comprise a strong launch to this new series.” ― Library Journal

The Beyond series consists of nine novels and three novellas. Though often enjoyed as contemporary erotic romance by readers, it’s set in a futuristic post-apocalyptic dystopia where the rich and powerful have claimed ownership of the country’s only self-sustaining city. Those who live within Eden’s walls must abide by a strict moral code or risk exile to the brutal, lawless sectors.
Gangs and petty dictators rule the slums, but not all kings are created equal. Dallas O’Kane and his brotherhood of bootleggers are the only authority in Sector Four. The series follows Dallas and his people as they evolve from a group fighting for their own survival to a powerful force in shaping the world they live in–and the values their world lives by.
The series has been reviewed favorably by RT Book Reviews. In addition, Beyond Pain and Beyond Innocence were winners of the RT Reviewer’s Choice Award for Erotic Romance. Both Beyond Addiction and Marked (the anthology containing Beyond Temptation) were nominees for Erotic Romance in the 2014 RT Reviewers Choice Awards.
