Caught in Her Web (Pets: Monster Edition)

Getting shot by alien traffickers and stumbling into a giant spider's web? Not my best day.

My life was already a disaster. Forty-two, achingly lonely, teaching linguistics to students who'd rather be anywhere else. Then I'm abducted by intergalactic traffickers, and suddenly my problems seem quaint. Escaping through an abandoned space station seems like a win until I crash into Sarai's territory. She's an eight-legged, eight-eyed Arachyne female who thinks she's caught dinner, until she realizes I’m a sentient being.

Sarai's been hiding in the forgotten sections for three years, convinced she's too small, too weak, too broken to be wanted by anyone. Her people rejected her. Mine would never accept us. But as she heals my wounds and I teach her my language, something impossible happens: we fall in love.

I'd give up Earth, my species, everything for the brilliant female spider who sees me when no one else ever did. But first, we have to survive long enough to leave this dying station behind.

Caught in Her Web is a steamy sci-fi romance featuring a brooding professor hero, a found-family journey, accidental monster romance, partners who fight side-by-side, and a happily ever after that proves love has no limits or species requirements.
