It's a light romp, and I assume it was always meant to be, so in that way it succeeds nicely. Jared is a nice character, Keira is okay, but we never really get to know either of them all that well - and they don't even meet until half the book is over. I really enjoyed myself while reading this - and it was perfect for the mood I've been in lately - so I don't want to sound like I'm completely knocking this book. It's a pleasant, light read and if that's what you're in the mood for, it'll be idea. If you're wanting more than that, look for something else. (  )rocalisa | Apr 12, 2007 | All the galaxy snookered by a poker bluff? If one is to believe Susan Grant, the Coalition is lucky to remain in power. And yet, they manage to assasinate their mortal enemies. Maybe they are the supreme power. The love story is average at best - forced matrimony to seal a treaty, with lust at first site. And love does conquer all in the end. The happy ending was a little too convenient, but at least it was happy... ( )Brendelicious | Apr 4, 2007 | 0.024 seconds to build listing

In the wake of a near alien invasion, Jared Jasper finds himself in a strange predicament. In order to save Earth from an intergalactic incident, he must agree to an engagement with a beautiful, yet dangerous, alien queen.
Queen Keira has been avoiding suitors and making eunuchs of those who dare to force themselves on her. But when she's told that she must marry a barbarian human man, she decides it's best to ally her people with the strangely primitive world.
But there are those who won't stand for the union. When strange "accidents" result in murders, and near misses for Jared, he realizes that Queen Keira has at least one traitor in her midst.
Susan Grant's newest book is another exciting and witty installment in this new series. I love her characters and subtle humor. And her firm grasp in the science fiction genre only adds to the action and adventure. (
