Beauty and the Beast meets James Bondby Anonymous

August 05, 2007: How do I sum up this delightful novel? OK, here's the Hollywood pitch: think 'Beauty and the Beast' meets James Bond, only funnier, and with aliens. Meet Tarrant-Arragon, heir-apparent to the interplanetary Tigron Empire. His 'Great Djinn' royal family is on the verge of alien extinction, and the poor seven-foot-tall 'beast' is hard-pressed to find a suitable mate. Enter Djinni-vera. She's half-Djinn and half-human, hidden on Earth by her father, the Saurian Dragon and mortal enemy of the Emperor, to protect her from the 'bad' side of the family. Thus the romance begins. It's a timeless 'beast meets girl' tale. Alien prince beast kidnaps his father's enemy's half-alien royal daughter. Alien prince beast must woo the lady without revealing his true identity because said half-alien princess is also a Saurian Knight, trained from birth to kill alien prince beast and overthrow his empire. Mayhem ensues. Meanwhile, the lady's clandestine fianc? is a spy within the imperial ranks and one of alien prince beast's most trusted officers. Commander Jason will stop at nothing to get his promised half-alien princess back. And the princess is one of the last royals to possess the famous psychic abilities of the ancient line, making it all the more difficult for alien prince beast to hide his identity, not to mention his emerging feelings for this feisty, head-strong captive. As our hero becomes more and more desperate either to prove himself to the princess or to trick her into marrying him, whichever he can manage first, time is running out. The Saurian Knights are plotting against him, the fianc? is closing in, his own valet is pulling for the girl, and the girl is meeting his every heavy-handed demand with the negotiating savvy of a UN ambassador. What's a seven-foot alien prince beast to do? This delightful romp has everything a romantic heart could hope for: a powerful but tender prince, a wily warrior princess, enough imperial intrigue to confuse even the CIA, and a British mercenary valet who ranks among the funniest characters ever to grace the written page. Better yet, it has a sequel...

July 26, 2007: If you like romance and sci-fi action and adventure, this is the book for you. FORCED MATE takes a contemporary woman, highly trained in the defense arts, and pits her against the most powerful (and sexiest) man in all the universe. The passion is palbable and the plot is enthralling. * * * * * Forced Mate is one of the best sci-fi romances I've read, and I'll most certainly be buying books from this author again.
