Pizza-loving Sage will do anything for a ticket to Prince Louis' birthday party, whether that's shooting bad guys at bars, chasing them in hover cars, or dropping one hundred stories from the highest skyscraper in Diamond City. She doesn't mind attracting a little bit of positive attention from the royal family so long as no one learns her true secret: She hails from an ancient warrior race, and kicking ass in war is her specialty. Only those days are long over. At least, she thinks they are until her nephew sells her out to the royal family, and they're nowhere near as air-headed as Prince…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
Pizza-loving Sage will do anything for a ticket to Prince Louis' birthday party, whether that's shooting bad guys at bars, chasing them in hover cars, or dropping one hundred stories from the highest skyscraper in Diamond City. She doesn't mind attracting a little bit of positive attention from the royal family so long as no one learns her true secret: She hails from an ancient warrior race, and kicking ass in war is her specialty. Only those days are long over. At least, she thinks they are until her nephew sells her out to the royal family, and they're nowhere near as air-headed as Prince Louis. Tiaras and dinner parties are far from their minds when they blackmail her into confronting a vicious (and flamboyant) warlord whose forces are invading the city. Choosing sides might have been a no-brainer, but Sage learns the royal family is using their citizens as test subjects in experiments to attain immortality, and the warlord is actually fighting to stop them. If Sage thought kneading dough was difficult, now she must choose between a tyrannical (and charming) warlord or a bubbly prince to take the throne. If Sage wants any semblance of a normal life again, let alone run a pizza shop, she must pray that her longing for love doesn't cloud her judgment. Then again, what girl would say no to promises of colorful weddings and spectacular fireworks, even if the guy who's offering them has a not-so-righteous agenda of his own?

Autorenporträt
Astrid Cole developed her love for writing in her senior year in high school. It all started when she and a friend collaborated on a vampire novel, since Twilight was the hot movie in 2009. Although that first novel was just for fun, Astrid never stopped writing even when she started Miami-Dade College in 2009. Amidst her goal to get into medical school, she came up with tons of science fiction thrillers that she'd write for fun when she wasn't studying. A few years later, she realized that medical school wasn't for her and that it was time to start honing her craft as a writer. At Florida International University, she switched to an English major. There, she got to read literatures from a variety of time periods and her favorite poet was Edmund Spencer (way better than Shakespeare). She thought of publishing her first novel in 2012, but quickly realized she wasn't ready and kept writing stories on the side.In 2013, she started getting into fitness and competed in her first (and only) bodybuilding show just two years later. Winning third place qualified her for states, but she loved eating too much to compete again. Instead, she focused on running, completing a half-marathon in 2017, and then powerlifting, which she does for fun. After she got her master's in English Literature in 2021, she started reading more fantasy and science fiction and tried her hand at publishing once more. Since then, she's been working on the Diamond City trilogy and plans to revisit earlier novels for publication.
