REVIEW

"Wonderfully tender story of love and passion!"

Plain Jane Miriam Quillan is working when he enters her office. Now that everything has been cleared through the proper channels, the man of her dreams is claiming her as his own. The wait is finally over and Miriam will soon be the wife of the Emperor of Aduaidh Prime—Ryden Bakari—the man everyone calls the Burgon. Of course, Miriam can't believe this too-handsome-to-believe man will finally become hers.

Now married, Ryden and Miriam enjoy an idyllic honeymoon on a tropical island. And the passion definitely flares between the two of them. Not that everything is smooth sailing. There is the small matter of the tattoo Miriam wants and Ryden refuses to allow. Of course, they still have to go through the public ceremony of their marriage, Miriam's installation as Empress of Aduaidh Prime and the formal naming of Ryden's successor. But this is not what is tearing Ryden apart. Instead, it's the pain he knows Miriam will endure when she becomes a Lady-Reaper. As it is, he's ready to renege on his promise to Miriam that she can become a Lady-Reaper.

Is there trouble in Paradise for Miriam and Ryden? Will Ryden allow his wife to become a Lady-Reaper? Will Miriam allow Ryden to renege on his promise? Does Miriam get the tattoo?

EMPEROR OF THE WIND is a very touching story of true love and passion. Charlotte Boyett-Compo once again brings her Reapers to life in this very intriguing story. Unlike most of Charlotte Boyett-Compo's stories, there is no torture or beatings in this one. Instead, we have the very real love and passion shared by Ryden and Miriam. Miriam is a very headstrong woman and doesn't plan on backing down from what she wants. Ryden is a very typical Alpha male and has no intentions of allowing Miriam to be hurt in any way. So we have Ryden being forced to accept that he cannot keep Miriam free of all pain. While different from most of her stories, this one is a very tender love story. As with all of Charlotte Boyett-Compo's stories, I highly recommend this one.

SUMMARY

Ryden Bakari is the Emperor of Aduaidh Prime, the Burgon, the most powerful man in the megaverse. And he is putty in the hands of the woman he loves.

Miriam Quillan lost everything to the intergalactic war that claimed her first husband’s life. But in the arms of the Burgon, she will come alive and her body will ache for want of his.

Like a sensuous lick of flame over a coverlet of satin and lace, a love so pure and a lust so overpowering will claim the Burgon and his lady to push all thoughts of war aside. Hot hands, warm mouths, and bodies throbbing with uncontrollable heat on a tropical world will set ablaze a roaring inferno of passion in the coldness of space.
