Rebellion, mind tricks, and tangled love on a planet far, far away.
Princess M'lani of the planet Psyclid, where almost everyone but M'lani is gifted with some kind of psychic ability, has agreed to marry Jagan Mondragon, the Sorcerer Prime. Jagan fled Psyclid when it was invaded by the Regulon Empire, but has now returned, supposedly to lead his people in rebellion against the occupation. But he's been dragging his feet about it, and when he finally shows up, he has his mistress with him. If that weren't enough of a problem, M'lani develops a not-so-welcome psychic gift, and then there's that prickly long-time rebel leader, T'kal Killiri (who did not flee Psyclid at the first sign of the Regs), and the antics of M'lani's younger brother, K'kadi, who speaks only through illusions.
On Blue Moon, one of Psyclid's three moons, M'lani's older sister Kass and her husband Tal continue to plot a massive rebellion against the Regs, but freedom for the obscure, peace-loving planet of Psyclid seems a long way away.
Author's Note: For Kass's and Tal's story, please see Book 1 of the Blue Moon rising series, REBEL PRINCESS.

Today is officially the worst day of my life...I woke up five hours late after a reckless one-night stand with the sexiest, cockiest, and most arrogant man I've ever met. (And this asshole actually left a note: I think you were lying to me about being "experienced" last night. You orgasmed three times, and that was before we made it to your bedroom. I also find it hard to believe you "usually wear silk or lingerie." Your drawers are all full of cotton granny panties--The best man you've ever fucked...)My top two clients for my PR company left to my number one competitor, my roommate 'accidentally' bleached my favorite suit, and my favorite coffee shop was shut down for "health concerns."Still, none of those things dimmed my excitement for what was supposed to be the best four o'clock signing session of my career. I was on the verge of signing the highest paying client in my company's history, taking on a so-called "impossible" job that no publicist had been able to handle.But at four o'clock, there was no athlete, television personality, or celebrity. Instead, that sexy, arrogant one-night stand stepped into my office with a familiar smirk and introduced himself as my new, cocky client... Views: 68

So I’ve always been a son of a bitch…and I’m talking literally here when I say this, because I’m the son of a pantsuit-wearing, barracuda in heels--otherwise known as Gloria Cavanaugh, CEO of Cavanaugh Yacht. She’s not only my mother, she’s my boss, so when she demands I “bed and wed” the heiress of a competing company, I need to think fast. My solution? Find a fake girlfriend and pay her to be in a relationship with me. It’s a crazy faking idea, but I’ll do anything to keep my single status and prevent my mother from getting her way. What’s even crazier? When this spunky, incredibly sexy girl starts to stir deep feelings in me…making me wonder if this could be the real thing. My job in sales and customer service at Precision Machine basically equates to lying underneath a hairy fat guy and faking an orgasm from 9 to 5. I desperately want out, but never did I imagine my escape would come in the form of Damon Cavanaugh, who shows up at a bar and takes my breath away with his insane good looks, devastating grin and cocky charm. My first reaction to his faking proposal? I think it’s the most ludicrous idea I’ve ever heard, and the only reason I’d consider it is because I mostly can’t stand him, and because I’m quite sure it will stay safe and platonic, since my history has prevented me from getting involved with men. But the more I get to know Damon, the more my attraction intensifies...just as his mother steps up the pressure. Will Gloria Cavanaugh prevail?
Or will a secret in someone’s past change our future? Please note: this is a standalone novel; however, to have a greater appreciation for this story and characters, I suggest grabbing BIG DECK first ;).

How did a Danish princess become the so-called first queen of Great Britain?Anne of Holstein is perhaps the least-known Queen Consort in Britain's history.
