"Erotic/Sci-fi - Power struggle with heat to melt the Ice"

Political struggles abound in this story of mystery and intrigue... but Princess Tayra of Glacid is smart enough to outwit everyone... so she thinks. She is currently under her uncle's protective custody because her own father mysteriously disappeared. Her uncle has gathered the warlords and is now leading them away from peace with Sark.

Lord Chancellor Aaxis Thrane of Sark captures Tayra and sets into works his plan to join the two worlds by impregnating her and reinforcing this alliance with a political marriage. He knows she is in her fertile time but faces the predicament that conception is only possible with her orgasm.

Very interesting dilemma, both Tayra and Aaxis want peace between their worlds but are so stubborn that their goal seems unattainable. The erotic interplay between the hero and heroine is intense and very passionate. Tayra is a strong clever woman who is just the leader Glacid needs.

If you like an intelligent erotic sci-fi read, this is for you. Fast-paced but requires some concentration, the story lines twist and turn. Some interesting safeguards on rape.

Rated NC-17 by the publisher.
