Heiress of the Nile — Veronica Scott

1550 BCEForced by a vengeful Pharaoh to flee for her life and hide in the poorest section of Thebes, Lady Pebatma has scraped and struggled to support her ailing mother and young brother for the past two years. Now, out of funds with the rent to pay and no possessions left to sell, she begs the goddess Hathor for help. With a new pharaoh taking the throne, surely something can be done...A powerful general in command of the army and best friend to Pharaoh, Marnamaret has everything a nobleman in Egypt could desire...except for true love. He refuses to settle for less. On a whim, he prays to Hathor to send him the woman of his dreams.Will the goddess answer these heartfelt petitions? And if she does, will Shai the god of Fate allow the course of two lives to be changed by love? For none can deny Fate....Author's Note: This is a connected series. Heiress of the Nile can be read as a standalone. Although it's my newest novel, the story falls between Priestess and Warrior timewise and is set in the early days of this Pharaoh's reign.GODS OF EGYPT SUGGESTED READING ORDER:Priestess of the NileHeiress of the NileWarrior of the NileDancer of the NileMagic of the Nile Ghost of the Nile Healer of the Nile Lady of the Nile Song of the Nile Return of Dancer of the Nile
