Risk

Oestera Aurellis has no qualms with her arranged marriage to the Martian prince.

He's a decent enough conversationalist, easy on the eyes, and a ticket out from under her mother's critical gaze. She's suspicious of the anger bubbling beneath his skin, but what's a little rage in the Court of War?

Until a painfully charming Earthen soldier crashes into her world and forever alters the course of her life, Oestera never considers that there might be something more in this life for her.

With the weight of the Martian prince's ring on her finger, Oestera is left in the haze of the gods' cruel timing with a choice.

She can suffer through a lifetime on the Martian throne with her Soulmate forever out of reach, or she can risk the stability of the entire System and fight for the Fate she deserves.

RISK is a steamy prequel to RIFT, following Astra and Lunelle's parents as they navigate a disastrous Tethering, a battle between duty and destiny, and bargaining with the God of War.
