About this ebook

Audra is an ordinary grad student in law school in Boulder, Colorado, until she learns a shocking truth: she's a princess from the planet Centauri. Her mission, like it or not, is to marry an alien prince and save her world, thereby protecting her family.

Darius, charged with escorting his brother’s bride back to Centauri to become queen, faces an impossible dilemma. Falling in love with Audra isn’t just forbidden; it’s a death sentence for both him and his people.

As Audra grapples with her newfound identity and the immense weight of her mission, she finds herself irresistibly drawn to Darius. The emotional turmoil is overwhelming as she tries to reconcile her duty with her growing feelings for him. Darius, torn between his duty to his brother and his undeniable attraction to Audra, struggles to keep his emotions in check.

Their journey becomes a perilous dance of duty and desire, with external threats and internal conflicts at every turn. Can Audra and Darius find a way to save their worlds and each other, or will their forbidden love lead to their destruction? The stakes have never been higher, and the heartache never more real, as they battle against fate and their own hearts.

This book is space opera and has some sexy times.

Ratings and reviews

This was terrific! The only other 2 stories of this sci fi romance genre I've read were so formulaic I really was indifferent, but tonight I wanted something a bit unusual. When this title jumped out at me, I got hooked by the second page. What a difference it makes to read a hack writer and someone who knows how to tell a story! Cynthia Wolfe can tell an engrossing tale for sure. The characters are both relatable and lovable. The pacing is brisk, her vocab precise, and romance doesn't depend on explicit details of their sex. I enjoyed every single minute of the book and look forward to reading more of her work.

interesting

Absolutely Loved it!!!!!!!

About the author

 Cynthia Woolf is the award winning and best-selling author of thirty-one historical western romance books and two short stories with more books on the way.

 

Cynthia loves writing and reading romance. Her first western romance Tame A Wild Heart, was inspired by the story her mother told her of meeting Cynthia’s father on a ranch in Creede, Colorado. Although Tame A Wild Heart takes place in Creede that is the only similarity between the stories. Her father was a cowboy not a bounty hunter and her mother was a nursemaid (called a nanny now) not the ranch owner. The ranch they met on is still there as part of the open space in Mineral County in southwestern Colorado.

 

Writing as CA Woolf she has six scifi, space opera romance titles. She calls them westerns in space.

 

Cynthia credits her wonderfully supportive husband Jim and her great friends and critique partners for saving her sanity and allowing her to explore her creativity.
