"How to make a woman angry by marrying her with out asking"

For Detective Lois Commoner, this day started out in a bad way. She should be resting her bum knee and instead she hears a scream and rescues a victim of a mugging. Not that this women is very happy to see her. Can today get any worse? Well she guesses so because she is on desk duty for the rest of her career. It's either that or retire and what is she going to do with retirement? Sit and look at the four walls? So while sitting at home watching the Star Trek marathon, she decides to kill herself.

Lois wakes up in a world of purple skies with a puma licking her face, but her knee doesn't hurt any more. She doesn't question why this cat is talking to her in her mind. But she does have a few misgivings when he shapeshifts into one gorgeous hunk of man. It seems that everyone here is tall and blond.

Prince Damon is out hunting when suddenly there appears before him a woman finely made, in his opinion. She could not have arrived at a better time. This is the time of the BRIDEFIGHT. The time where the strongest has first pick of whom he wants for his mate. Damon picks her. There is only one tiny problem that Lois has with this -- he never asked her to marry him. Like how is she supposed to know the rules in this land. Normal people go through courtship, engagements, planning for a wedding, before actually getting married. To say Lois is a little steamed is putting it mildly. How does an independent detective find herself married to a prince, and she will one day will be queen?

CANIS ROYAL: BRIDEFIGHT has superb dialog. You envision yourself actually a fly on the wall watching these two strong characters unfold. The supporting characters from Damon's brothers all the way down to the servant Zeka are historically funny. I can't wait to read more from Ms. Davidson and will go searching for more stories by her. The only problem with CANIS ROYAL: BRIDEFIGHT is it's not long enough. Can someone request her to continue writing about Lois and Damon? Does King Sekar find love? Do Damon's brothers Maltese and Shakal find mates that will cause them trouble? CANIS ROYAL: BRIDEFIGHT was over way too soon.
