Private Negotiations (#1)
For the past ten years, war has ravaged the planet of Scicia. The countries of Telesia and Vanden have painted the land with the blood of their people, neither side coming out the clear victor. The recent death of the Vanden Regent has brought his heir to the throne and with it a new chance for peace. That is, if the memories of an illicit love and a false identity do not derail the process first.
Vanden Regent, Loden Espacian has waited a long time to claim Rinalda D’Aubry as his bride. Four years before, on a mission to Presari Station, Loden attempted to seduce secrets from the Telesian Chancellor’s beautiful daughter. His quest failed when she did not divulge even so much as her family ties and Loden fell helplessly in love. Now, the war has taken a terrible toll on Vanden’s resources. With his country on the verge of collapse, Rinalda is within the walls of his palace as the Telesian peace emissary. The only chance for Loden to save his country is to find a way back to Rinalda’s good graces and once again win her heart.
When Sergeant Rinalda D’Aubry agreed with her father’s plan of going to Vanden as the emissary in a peace envoy, she had no idea she’d come face to face with the man she thought was lost to a wartime romance. Dreams of him have sustained her during some of her worst days and nights, fighting in a bloody war of her father’s making. The man she remembers was a common foot soldier, not the heir to the Vanden throne. Memories of their passionate lovemaking threatens to ignite the air between them, burning all who stand in the way. Betrayed and humiliated, Rinalda vows to rise above her broken heart to save both countries from destruction before it’s too late for redemption. But not before her father’s secrets threaten to destroy the fragile peace and the new love growing between Loden and Rinalda, along with the promises of the future they plan to build together.
Intimate Weapons (#2)
Jovita Rees is running for her life.
Infused with nanites to heighten her natural abilities, Jovita has become little better than a weapon for her people. The cost of these heinous experiments was the complete erasure of her memories. With little more than the memory of her name and the medical torture she suffered on the Celedon science colony of Theta, she stows away aboard the Vanden vessel, Guidestar, to flee the guards of Presari Station.
Hoping to exchange sex for safe passage to Vanden, she stows away on the ship of Mallic Telonis, the Vanden Regent’s First Advisor.
Mallic is shocked to discover a beautiful Celedon woman in his bed. Despite her offer and beauty, he is troubled she would offer such a prize for a ride across the galaxy when all she needed was to declare political asylum. A check into her background finds unexpected results when it comes to light Jovita Rees was not only the court psychic to the Celedon tsia but died under mysterious circumstances. So, who is the woman in Mallic’s bed?
Into the confusion, word comes that a powerful weapon has been smuggled off Celedon. The break-through technology could shift the balance of power in the known worlds. Mallic fears Jovita knows where the weapon is kept, but never dreams the woman he has begun to desire more than any other he’s known, may be the weapon in question.
Clandestine Alliance (#3)
A prince. A warrior. A love stronger than an Ashlin blade.
Bateo Gunner is dead.
Stationed on the royal planet of Celedon, Ashlin Warrior Nadja Kelswan is charged with acting as liaison between her country of Vanden and the Celedon tsia. The main objective is to get answers from Bateo Gunner on the conspiracy that turned Jovita Rees into a weapon and now infects a good portion of the Celedon Empire. Nadja’s most important duty came from the tsia himself, to act as Prince Rohan’s personal bodyguard. It is a task she takes seriously, even as the conspiracy around them thickens, following Gunner’s assassination in his prison cell.
Prince Rohan of Celedon has had his heart broken twice: once by the faked death of his lover, Jovita, then by her marriage to another man. Loving only one woman since childhood, it surprises him when a raven-haired Ashlin warrior haunts his dreams. She’s strong, lithe, and frustratingly formal. Her stagnant, hazel eyes are so different than the twirling depths of a Celedon’s. However, her training as an Ashlin has made her wise beyond her years. He finds solace in her counsel. By rights he should hate Ashlin Nadja for her interference in his reunion with Jovita, but he can’t seem to help himself from falling under the warrior’s spell.
As the list of crimes against Celedon continues to grow. Parts are missing from shipments to outposts, security vids are tampered with, and the body of Bateo Gunner is missing from the morgue. Amidst the chaos, a new planet sends an overture of friendship to the tsia. It is an ill-timed and suspicious request as far as Nadja is concerned.
Nadja’s suspicions are realized when Rohan is taken ill, and his body infested with a newer more sinister nanite—one that replicates faster and has the power to compel the host to do whatever the programmer wishes. Torn between duty to her sword and her love for Rohan, Nadja takes up the mantle of protector to rid the palace of the conspirators once and for all. Even if it means giving her very life to save those she’s sworn to protect.
