Produktbeschreibung

SOL and Capra had survived several attacks of the splintered Galactic Kingdom. Each star nation had become a target of the Galactic Kingdom, and continued existence wasn't an option available to them. Destruction of both systems was the current goal of the deceased King's three brothers.

Captain Lee, the rightful heir to the throne, was raised in SOL, and his betrothed, Lady Michelle, was raised on Capra. An attempt had been made on her life, and she had barely escaped and found herself plunged into confusion on a starship headed off Capra to another star system, SOL. Discovering she was selected to be the bride of a future king of something called the Galactic Kingdom. Now hunted and was on the run to see if her future betrothed was still alive.

Lee was on Earth in command of a destroyer in an Earth war. He was entrenched in a battle with a portion of the world seeking death for all non-believers. He had been raised by an American family when those who brought him to Earth died from their accident landing on Earth. The Galactic Kingdom guardian team sent with the future king had lost track of Lee's location and had been out of contact with the assigned parental figures.

Three uncles from the Galactic Kingdom sent fleets to SOL to locate and kill Lee. Failing to find the rightful future king, the destruction of all lives on Earth was the only option. Three fleets staggered from actual departure time would allow a short period between subsequent attacks to be ready for the next. That could only happen if a star system with no space-faring technology could resist and destroy three significantly greater technical prowess fleets.

A miracle of good fortune allowed a Capra contingency of starships to arrive, whose numbers had been increased when Captain Lorans' force joined with hers. Three fleets had independently arrived and attacked SOL, and each had been narrowly defeated. The final with the help of Queen Suzzane from the Galactic Kingdom. She had lost her husband, King Richard, to her three brothers-in-law, and she was determined not to lose her son.

Once the battles had ended, Earth was still a survivor, and the future king was located. It was time to plan for the future and let Lady Michelle and the future king, Lee, get acquainted. Lady Michelle and future king Lee could only see an end to the war, and their lives had been altered permanently. Even amidst the turmoil, a connection had begun to form. King Lee could only expect a betrothed that stood firm, even fearless. She would be a woman to reckon with.
