Ruth Ann Nordin

The Royal Pursuit Ruth Ann Nordin

Five years after becoming queen, Ann has enjoyed peace and prosperity on Raz. She has everything she's ever wanted: a loving husband and children. Then, one day, an alien species seeks an alliance with her world, and this is just the beginning... On another world, a dying group called the Nicals are desperate. If they don't do something drastic, they will become extinct. With nothing left to lose, they steal the power in the Olympians' Stone of Immortality, thereby saving themselves, but unknowingly dooming the Olympians. Ann is called to help her allies, the Olympians, but if the Nicals give the stone back, they will be back to where they started. A mysterious stranger promises to help them, though whether he truly means to help them isn't clear, especially when he kidnaps Ann.
