Series background & context

Zodiac Tactical is a romantic-suspense series about a team willing to act when the law cannot, or will not, protect someone. The members use code names drawn from the zodiac, and each book focuses on a different operative, a dangerous mission, and the person who becomes impossible for that operative to leave behind.

Code Name: Aries starts the series with Ian and Wavy. The team grows through stories featuring Sarge and Bronwyn in Code Name: Virgo, Landon and Bethany in Code Name: Libra, Tristan and Alyse in Code Name: Pisces, Mark and Jenna in Code Name: Outlaw, and Andrew and Tasha in Code Name: Gemini.

They believe in heroes, but not perfect ones.

These books blend private justice, investigations, rescues, and action with romantic relationships shaped by secrets and hard choices. The people involved often have good reason to distrust authority or keep their distance. Zodiac Tactical offers another option, backed by people who understand the cost of taking on dangerous work.

The series has a strong team feel. Every novel has its own central couple and mission, but the larger group creates continuity, with familiar faces appearing as allies, friends, and backup when a plan goes sideways. The cases are tense, while the relationships give the books their heart.

Although Zodiac Tactical mentions the wider Omega Sector world, the original Omega Sector characters do not overlap with this series. Readers can start fresh with Code Name: Aries. Read in order for the clearest view of how the team forms and how its members become a family of their own.
