Naive Krisa gets the shock of her life when the seemingly chivalrous Ketchum attempts to rape her and takes cruel delight in telling her what awaits her by Lord Radisson’s side. According to the warden, Captain Owen Ketchum, Kurt Teague is evil incarnate, an unscrupulous convict with countless kills to his name. Everything about her first off-planet trip fascinates Krisa, particularly the two antagonistic men she meets on board the starship: a heavily chained and blindfolded, darkly dangerous prisoner and his fair, handsome warden. Groomed and educated in the prestigious Briar Rose Finishing Academy, she is on her chaperoned way to her husband-to-be, the powerful Lord Radisson, who picked her from Briar Rose’s intergalactic catalogue when she was just thirteen. Unfortunately, things took a downhill turn and my predominant feeling when I finished the book was great disappointment.īeautiful 21-year-old Krisa Elyison from Capellia, also dubbed the Bride Planet, is the futuristic, posh version of a mail-order bride. The author gets everything right – plotting, pacing, and two absolutely terrific protagonists who simply leap off the pages.
Planet X by Evangeline Anderson starts out with great promise.
