Many women have quit their jobs and traveled cross country to be with the man of their dreams; one woman traveled light years to be with hers

A Woman With Broken Dreams...

All Claudia Bellows ever wanted to do with her life was become a pop star. But years of trying had left her with nothing but one big happily-never-after. Her only joy in life has been a recurring dream of a man sleeping inside a glass case. Just when she accepts that her singing aspirations were over and the man of her dreams was just that . . . in her dreams, a chance meeting in the desert leads her to the discovery that he is very real and on a planet called Kir. Jumping at the chance to go and find him; there, she is gifted with a new name, a magical harp, and a second chance at making music. But can she really be the one who will finally bring peace to the planet?

A Warrior With A Broken Heart...

Mendon Pelaea Yaaden, Supreme Commander of the Farenjannos, has been in stasis for over 600 Earth years. Just before he was betrayed, shamed, and executed for a crime he didn't commit, his mentor had told him of the promised one, his daughter, and that he’d know her at the sound of her voice. After years locked inside a dark, dreamless void, it was indeed the sweetest of voices that awakened him. Not only would she restore peace to his war-ravaged planet, but to his aching heart as well. But can he set his emotions aside to allow her to do what must be done in order to fulfill the prophecy?

Srae Iss-Ka-Mala is a heroine-driven adventure story that will take you from the pampered confines of Kir's sacred love temples to the wilds of the Zagoica Forest where the fierce rhalls roam. Equipped with only an ancient instrument and her voice, Srae must bring together two feuding races all the while avoiding capture by Jleef Deniprar, the Khadjiran Supreme Commander, who wants to kill her, and her beloved Mendon, who only wants to protect her.
