"A sexy futuristic novel"

Morrigan Blake is an investigative reporter on the trail of a hot story involving the Galactic Brides Corporation. In order to get the story, she's gone undercover as a bride candidate for the Qurilixian Breeding Festival, the event where the warrior-trained Qurilixian males choose their brides. Of course, her boss thinks she's doing a fluff piece on the mysterious princes who are rumored to be attending the Festival, but Morrigan knows that this will be the story that will make her career.

Unfortunately, the Galactic Bride Corporation's information on the Breeding Festival is more than a little lacking, and Morrigan finds herself chosen and irrevocably married to one of the mysterious princes. Suddenly, the story of her career doesn't seem so important anymore....

THE BARBARIAN PRINCE is a sexy futuristic novel -- the first in Michelle M. Pillow's hot new Dragon Lords series. Though the story isn't revolutionary, it bringing to mind Johanna Lindsey's ground- breaking futuristic novels most prominently, BARBARIAN PRINCE is rolicking good fun that shouldn't be passed up by futuristic fans. With twists and turns and a lovely, gradually developing relationship between the hero and heroine no romance reader would be disappointed with, Pillow enchants and delights. The story is fun and the characters sympathetic and enjoyable. Happily, Pillow promises more adventures in this universe in her Dragon Lords series -- I, for one, can't wait to read more.

SUMMARY

The four Qurilixian Princes have no problem with commitment. In one night, using the power they were born with, they will meet and choose their life mate in a simplistic ceremony involving the removing of masks and the crushing of crystals. With very few words spoken and the shortest, most bizarre courtship in history, they will bond to their women forever. And once bonded, these men don't let go....

Breaking up was never so hard...

Going undercover at Galaxy Brides as one of the prospective mates to these Viking-like barbarians, Morrigan has no intention of getting chosen to stay. But when Ualan of the Draig picks her to be his wife with the aid of his mystically glowing crystal, it is all she can do to say no.

Waking up from a drug-induced night of torturous and unfulfilling pleasures, Morrigan discovers her spaceship has left without her and Ualan is claiming she is his wife. It's not exactly the story this reporter had in mind. And to make matters worse, Ualan refuses to take no for an answer.

Being cursed by the Gods was never so frustrating...

Prince Ualan is like all others of his race on the male dominated planet of Qurilixen. He is raised to trust the mystic powers around him and when it comes time to marry, he is ready to follow those powers to choose his life mate. When the stubborn, yet achingly beautiful, Morrigan refuses to accept their shared fate and his supreme authority over her, it is all he can do not to break her lovely neck.
