description
<p> Since her father's assassination five years ago, Jeanne de Reynar has been the Empress-Elect of the Starsdenn Empire. She lives an easy life of politics, luxury, and semi-regular visits from her best friend-with-benefits. Save for the occasional attempt on her life, she has no complaints. </p> <p> But when the attempted poisonings and failed muggings and other deadly methods become more common, the Council forces her to take on a group of bodyguards (for her own safety, of course). At first Jeanne is against the idea, until she meets one guard: Alveara. Never one to fall for princes and lords, Jeanne is smitten with the tall, stoic guard from the very beginning. </p> <p> Life in the palace takes a turn. Beyond assassins, rising political tension, and Jeanne's own conflicted heart, there's something more sinister bubbling just beneath the surface. When Jeanne loses it all, the real work begins. </p> <p> How are you supposed to build an Empire in a day? </p> <p> ***Please be advised that there will be scenes of a sexual nature and this novel is generally not intended for audiences under 18 years of age.
