Risteard’s Unwilling Empress
Description of book
Riste´ard Roald is the powerful and deadly ruler of Elpidios, a planet that is slowly dying without the Blood Stones needed to absorb the radiation gradually destroying its stratosphere. Time is running out.
Ricki Bailey is used to dealing with diplomats and handling complex situations. As the daughter of the owners of Cirque de Magik, the most spectacular Circus to the Stars, she is used to organizing their trips to foreign countries. Her life changes when her mother and father decide to take the circus to the real stars... and to another star system!
Riste´ard is stunned when a strange, alien female, foretold in the ancient tablets as being the great Empress who will save his world, appears. He is even more astonished when she refuses his attentions! With the life of his planet at stake, not to mention his own peace of mind and body, he will do whatever is necessary to ensure the female stays by his side.
Yet, there are powerful forces that do not want Risteard to be successful. Dangers and traitors among his own council threaten them both. It will take all of Riste´ard's resources, and a few unexpected allies, to complete the dangerous journey ahead of them.
Can he keep his unwilling Empress safe from those that would destroy her? Can he save his world when there are those that would destroy it for the treasure of precious Blood Stones hidden somewhere beneath its surface?
