Summary: Great Story, Great Romance, Great Characters
Review: This is a great romance and a great science fiction story. The universe beyond earth as described by the author is imaginative and fascinating. I love the premise of an adventerous woman seeking passage on the first space vessel to have contact with earth. The characters in the book are mature adults (no lame empaths or mystical healing heroines in this sci fi story) who are able to work out their problems by discussing them. The heroine is intelligent, thoughtful, and can rescue herself. And the hero is everything a romance reader wants in a hero - commanding, gentle, respectful, and hot. This is a fascinating, fun-filled adventure - a very satisfying read. I easily rate this book 5 stars. It is part of my keeper collection! If you like sci fi romance, don't pass this gem up.

Summary: Stunning! Very highly recommended
Review: Time and space pause, bringing two people from vastly different worlds together for only moments. Air Force Lieutenant Jasmine Boswell believes she's been shot down over the Saudi Arabian Desert. Prince Romlijhian B'Kah has just witnessed his brother's plane exploding when a vision of what he believes to be an angel saves his life. For a moment, soul mates meet and recognize the profound implications, only to be wrenched away. Later each believes that their meeting was only a hallucination. Nine years later, an alien nation contacts earth to establish trade relations. A glimpse of one of the aliens on television brings instant recognition to Jas. She immediately arranges a six-month absence and smuggles onto the airbase where Rom's star craft is about to launch. Jas is divorced, her life missing something, and she longs to seek answers in the stars. Rom has been disowned from the royal family and is making his living as minor smuggler. As their worlds collide, Jas and Rom struggle with their painful pasts, their growing love and an encroaching evil that threatens to destroy the galaxy. With masterful creativity, author Susan Grant combines science fiction, romance, and nail-biting suspense in STAR KING. Her sexy hero Rom combines sensual pleasure with admiration for stretch marks, making him every woman's fantasy. Jas is a likewise wonderful heroine, with grown children, maturity and a love of adventure. Secondary characters and exotic locations becomes a source of humor and depth. For example, Grant exploits the unusual and the common with a deft touch with a three hundred pound bodyguard named Muffin and a running joke regarding beer. Indeed, the exhilarating plot keeps the pages turning, making STAR KING a keeper. Very highly recommended.
