Defense Mechanisms by Mo Kramer

Medical Thriller

Date Published: April 22, 2026

The end of disease is the end of humanity.

Can the destruction of humanity be prevented?

At an international medical conference, infectious-disease physician Noah Winter encounters the enigmatic Dr. Balodis—a visionary who claims to have engineered microbes capable of regenerating human cells, ending aging, and curing the world’s deadliest diseases.

But the miracle comes with a terrifying cost. Balodis plans to force humanity’s evolution—and reshape the world order. Once unleashed, the organisms mutate beyond control, spreading rapidly across the globe.

Hunted by intelligence agencies, mercenaries, and Balodis’s private army, Noah must expose the truth before the cure becomes a global extinction event.

Time is running out—and the cure may be humanity’s final mistake.

#NOWLIVE Claimed on the Ridge by Delta James

♦ ♦ ♦

She escaped one man’s control… and landed in another’s hands.

I don’t exist anymore.

The name I gave him is fake. The life I left behind is worse. And if I don’t make it across the border soon, my husband will find me, and this time, I won’t survive it.

Sawyer’s Ridge was supposed to be a quick stop. One night. Then gone.

But the storm traps me on a mountain with a man who sees too much.

Alex Sawyer doesn’t ask questions. He watches. Waits. Decides.

He notices the flinch I can’t hide.

The lies I don’t quite tell fast enough.

The fear I’ve learned to bury.

He doesn’t trust me.

He doesn’t need to.

Because the moment he looks at me, something shifts, and suddenly, leaving isn’t an option he’s willing to allow.

When the men hunting me finally reach the ridge, they expect to find a woman alone.

What they find… is Alex.

And he’s not the kind of man who gives anything back once he’s claimed it.

Not his land.

Not his home.

And definitely not me.

♦ ♦ ♦

"Kendall."

He says my name low and unhurried, tasting the shape of it, and the sound does something to the base of my spine that runs all the way up.

"Alex."

The motion is slow, giving me every chance to pull away. His fingers close around my wrist, the one I cover when I flinch, and the touch is warm and careful and exactly where another man's hold would be a threat.

On him, it's a question.

I don't flinch.

The absence of it registers on his face before I've finished processing it myself. His expression shifts, something raw breaking through the composure.

His thumb brushes the inside of my wrist, finding my pulse.

I turn my wrist into his hand, opening toward him. The movement is small, but it says everything my mouth won't.

He steps closer.

"Tell me no," he says, his voice rough enough to scrape. "Kendall. Tell me no, and I stop."

I don't tell him no.

If steamy alpha males, curvy heroines, and just the right amount of paranormal growl are your thing—meet your new favorite author: Delta James.

A USA Today bestselling queen of romantic suspense and paranormal heat, Delta writes fast-paced, heart-racing, panty-melting stories featuring strong women, dominant men, and more than a few fated mates. Whether it’s shifters howling in the wild or billionaires brooding in boardrooms, her books always bring the spice.

Delta didn’t grow up dreaming of writing romance. In fact, she launched her author career in 2018 after deciding her second act in life needed more passion… and possibly more bite. Since then? She’s published dozens of books across series like Wayward Mates, Otter Cove Shifters, Club Southside, Tangled Vines, and Mystic River Shifters—each one a decadent dive into danger, desire, and often, some well-placed discipline.

She lives in Florida with her pack of loyal basset hounds (aka editors with long ears and zero chill), and when she’s not writing steamy scenes or plotting revenge for her latest heroine, she’s probably riding horses, walking the beach, or white-water rafting—because why not?

25 Bookish Confessions from a Chaos-Loving Reader

Let’s be honest, being a bookworm isn’t always neat and tidy. Between towering TBR piles, emotional breakdowns over fictional characters, and the occasional impulse buy (okay, frequent), the reading life is chaotic in the best way. So here are 25 confessions from me, Melissa, your resident fantasy-romance addict and chaotic reviewer.
