Markis
Shavar, the Swithin Prince, controls the power of the Comet. His power may be
the only thing that can stop a war between two vast monarchies. A war that could
devastate the world. If that weren’t pressure enough, he may also have to rescue
a princess and face a marriage of convenience. And it sure as hell doesn’t help
that Markis can barely control the power when he calls it forth. Traditional
methods – including celibacy, aren’t working and he is running out of time. His personal guard and best friend, Ryanac, insists that Markis should embrace love, both emotionally and physically, to control the Comet. He’d really like for Markis to embrace him. It’s entirely possibly Ryanac is correct … but if he’s wrong, it could destroy them.
When Markis leaves the palace one night to indulge in the luxury of a little solitude, he captures Uly, a would-be thief. Out of boredom, he decides to play a little game with the street rat, but Uly has other ideas. He plans to teach the prince a lesson in desire … and love.
If a street thief can teach a prince to gain control by losing it, love may truly conquer all.
