The story:
Larissa Channer, a tough no-nonsense mercenary in
the Sectors, is celebrating success on her last job and a big bonus, with no
slightest thought of taking on another assignment anytime soon. Out for a night
of carousing with her friends at a third rate carnival on a backwater planet,
she walks into the tent of a fake fortune teller and finds herself confronting
the most intriguing man she’s ever seen. But something’s wrong, ominous
currents lie beneath the surface of their encounter and Larissa can’t leave
well enough alone.
Samell, a powerful, high born empathic priest, has
been kidnapped from his own primitive planet along with a number of his people,
and sold to the shady operator of an interstellar carnival. Kept enslaved, pretending
to be a fortune teller while forced by his captor to steal information from the
minds of all who come before him, Samell despairs of every breaking free.
Until Larissa walks into his tent and he recognizes
the warrior who might mean the difference between life and death.
The situation becomes dire when Larissa and Samell come
to the attention of the Shemdylann pirates who kidnapped him in the first place
and the deadly Mawreg, aliens who threaten the Sectors. Can she save herself
and the empathic alien noble, and derail the Mawreg plot against the Sectors?
And will the soldier end up with her prince when all’s said and done?
