Onslaught by Bowen Greenwood

Exiled mutants and mind-controlling telepaths invade Human Space. Langston Wheeler is the only thing standing in their way. The Union of Human Space sent Langston on a simple mission: Hunt down a potential threat and neutralize it. But the threat is worse than anyone imagined. War is coming, and the peaceful merchant world known as Felicitas is woefully unprepared. Wheeler must survive the invasion and warn the Union that their centuries of peace are at an end. He has a past, though, and the leader of the Felicitan people makes overcoming it that much harder. As the Executive of Felicitas, Tia Dynn glides through a wealthy society that doesn't even remember war. When ravenous pig-human hybrids and mind-controlling telepaths blitzkrieg her planet, Tia leaves cocktail parties and poll numbers behind to become a true leader. Rival political factions make it harder, though, and so does the handsome stranger from off world. The only official path into orbit costs a fortune. Ray Pilak can get there for half the price, if the buyer doesn't mind the risk of arrest. His dicey relationship with the law is the main reason he's not involved with Tia Dynn anymore. When the war breaks out, though, suddenly a pilot who can dodge the powers that be looks a lot more valuable. Ray must grow into more than a smuggler if Felicitas is to have any hope at all. The three of them will discover what they really value, what they're willing to sacrifice, and who they really are. Human Space is at war for the first time in hundreds of years, and only Langston, Tia and Ray have any hope of stopping it. The Exile War series is 100% complete, with seven main books and a prequel novella.

Clara Verona sneaks into Central America to infiltrate a violent group of Marxist revolutionaries. But when her contact is murdered and Clara's pistol is used to kill him, she finds herself running for her life, hunted for a crime she didn't commit. When she calls for help, the only result is more cops on her tail. Someone on the inside sold her out. Victor Isaac used to be an elite Panamanian special forces officer, but an operation went terribly wrong on his watch. Now he's stuck hassling drunks on the night shift. Called to the scene of a murder, the crime sets off every one of his alarm bells. But the closer he comes to catching the killer, the more obvious it becomes that everything is not as it seems. In a conflict fought in the shadows, spies and special forces clash over a terrorist plot that could be the start of World War III. If they want to warn the world, or even survive, Clara and Victor will need all of their training. They'll need all their skill. And they'll need to learn to trust each other. In the covert world of espionage, that may be the hardest challenge of all.
