Pride packs a punch, but packs should never get in the way of the heart. The federation of Valet de Chambre has ordered Verena, Queen of the planet Effeminate, to produce a male heir for her kingdom within the successive 30 moon cycles. If she does not, she and her planet of female lion shifters will be forced into a life of servitude under Jaxson, King of the planet Emir and most of their Equipoise solar system.
With her heart set on saving her planet, Verena voyages out of her solar system to find a man from Earth. She prays the man is worthy enough to produce an heir that will suffice the new laws of the federation of Valet de Chambre. The baby will grow and train to become Effeminate's successor. The plan was foolproof because every woman Effeminate has done this to have a family, and now it was her turn to seek a mate for the sole purpose of procreation. But what Verena wasn't counting on was falling for Ciro DeLuca.
A man who drew her into his world and his circle of friends that he considers family. She hadn't known family in 170 moon cycles because Jaxson, a powerful king and panther shifter in his own right, killed her parents in the Battle of Quell. This forced the now named queen to produce an heir under federation law. Ciro holds a secret too. He is a werewitch and finds his werewolf side has wholly fallen for Verena.
Yet, his witch side knows she is hiding something, and he hopes his clan can help him find out what she is keeping from him. Will Verena mate with Ciro and save her planet in time? Or will her fears of losing him to her lie overcome her?Will Ciro help Verena save her planet once he finds out the truth?
