StarTorn — Brenda Hiatt

BREAKING: Our Sovereign a murderer?Sovereign Emileia (M to her friends) and Princess Malena barely have a chance to catch their breath after helping to capture a deranged and dangerous ex-dictator, when a muckraking reporter drops a bomb into Martian society: during the crisis, M and Rigel used the deadly power of their bond to kill a protester. Now M and Rigel must deal with renewed calls to stay apart for everyone's safety, and M's sister, Princess Malena, faces rising pressure to take over more and more Royal duties. It's a nightmare none of them foresaw or wanted. But when Malena gets a taste of power, she appears to like it much more than anyone expected. When sinister forces threaten to turn Emileia and Malena against each other, can their deepening bonds of sisterhood withstand the test?
