Setting: Ichidian Universe
#1 International Bestselling Series

In the universe where the League is law, most live in fear. We fight back. Welcome to a world where corrupt assassination politics dominate everyone. It’s kill or be killed, and every life has a price™.

For Caillen Dagan, a defiant soldier of fortune, survival isn’t a right, it’s a brutal daily battle. Moving through the Ichidian universe like a wraith, his brushes with the law and death are legendary. But when an act of rare heroism reveals his hidden birthright, he’s forced into a world much more dangerous and cold-hearted than the bloody streets where he was raised- one of obscene wealth and lethal politics.

Ferocious and determined, Desideria Denaraii serves as an official bodyguard for her queen. Born of questionable genetics, she will do anything to prove herself worthy of the weapons she carries and the position she’s won by combat. But when she uncovers a ruthless plot to assassinate the queen and overthrow her country’s government, Desideria is caught in the crosshairs.

With assassination contracts out on both of them, Caillen and Desideria must learn to fight together or die alone. And if they fail, their governments will fall into the hands of an unimaginable evil.

Characters

Caillen

The hero

  Irreverent, sarcastic and fun, Caillen believes there are three kinds of people. Those who fight. Those who die. Those who run. He's not dead yet and he's never run from anything a day in his life (hiding doesn't count--that's just smart thinking). A third generation smuggler who flies missions for Syn, Caillan is anything other than what he seems. No one should ever assume they know anything about him.

Desideria

The heroine

A true Qillaq through and through, Desideria believes that all problems can be settled with a blaster. In her world, a man can only marry a woman if he can defeat her in battle. And since her skills are the best of her tribe, she knows she's destined to grow old alone. But that's all right. She doesn't want anyone who isn't her equal.
