Book Description

“Polaris Rising is space opera at its best, intense and addictive, a story of honor, courage, betrayal, and love. Jessie Mihalik is an author to watch.”--Ilona Andrews, #1 New York Times bestselling author A space princess on the run and a notorious outlaw soldier become unlikely allies in this imaginative, sexy space opera adventure—the first in an exciting science fiction trilogy. In the far distant future, the universe is officially ruled by the Royal Consortium, but the High Councillors, the heads of the three High Houses, wield the true power. As the fifth of six children, Ada von Hasenberg has no authority; her only value to her High House is as a pawn in a political marriage. When her father arranges for her to wed a noble from House Rockhurst, a man she neither wants nor loves, Ada seizes control of her own destiny. The spirited princess flees before the betrothal ceremony and disappears among the stars. Ada eluded her father’s forces for two years, but now her luck has run out. To ensure she cannot escape again, the fiery princess is thrown into a prison cell with Marcus Loch. Known as the Devil of Fornax Zero, Loch is rumored to have killed his entire chain of command during the Fornax Rebellion, and the Consortium wants his head. When the ship returning them to Earth is attacked by a battle cruiser from rival House Rockhurst, Ada realizes that if her jilted fiancé captures her, she’ll become a political prisoner and a liability to her House. Her only hope is to strike a deal with the dangerous fugitive: a fortune if he helps her escape. But when you make a deal with an irresistibly attractive Devil, you may lose more than you bargained for . . .

The Alamo Delegate


Book Description

"Often the story of the Alamo is dominated by a handful of historical figures such as Crockett, Bowie, and Travis, among others. The Alamo Delegate gives the reader a glimpse into the life of a lesser known Texian volunteer, Jesse B. Badgett, and reminds us that the men who came to the defense of Texas in 1836 were normal men who answered the call of freedom, at great risk to themselves and their families. This book is a captivating story of an Alamo courier who helped change the course of Texas history. The Alamo Delegate is a refreshing new perspective on the struggle for Texian Independence." -- Kolby Lanham, Senior Researcher and Historian at the Alamo "Fascinating, untold history of one man’s almost accidental – but influential – footprint in the battle for Texas independence. 'Obscure' no longer, Badgett’s story serves as a bold reminder that one man can make a difference." -- KK Bruno, Author of Mischiefs and Miseries: A Novel of Jamestown 1607 "Combining painstaking research with vivid characterization, Partee’s biography demonstrates why we should remember Jesse B. Badgett, an original signer of the Texas Declaration of Independence. From his westward travels from North Carolina to his fateful encounter with history in San Antonio, Badgett’s 'Odyssey' is quintessentially American: a tale of struggle, circumstance, and politics. Highly recommended for readers wishing to know more about this fascinating period." -- Thomas E. Jenkins, Ph.D., Professor of Classical Studies, Trinity University As the new nation expanded westward in early 1813, a party of travelers set out from coastal North Carolina bound for a journey none could imagine: Jesse B. Badgett and his family would help settle the then-unchartered lands of the American South. But when destiny called, Jesse left his new life behind to deliver the last hope for his compatriots: a single letter. The only biography of the state’s most overlooked hero, The Alamo Delegate recounts the striking story of the expert rider who carried the fate of Texas in his saddlebag.
