Knight of A Trillion Stars

Deana Jones thought maybe this day couldn’t get worse, since she lost her job but then things started spiraling down hill from there bad weather and all. When she thinks she is just about to seek solitude at home, a wreck blocks her car in. She must wait for the two cars blocking hers to be removed before she can go home. Hopefully she can find some solace in a junk shop across the street until the cars can be removed, and at least it has her out of the rain for a bit. While she is looking around something feels as if it is drawing her to look in this one box. In the box she finds an old necklace that looks antique with a dark stone in it. She buys it takes it home, cleans it up and decides to take it on a trip she has planned to a science fiction convention that weekend. As she walks back out into her living room she is scared half out of her wits by a man sitting in strange looking clothes on her couch. Here is, were her story begins, the man is Lorgin ta’al Krue from another universe. He is on a quest that he will not divulge to her at this time, but vows to protect her because he feels she needs protecting. When she turns on the microwave things really get interesting because he takes out something looking like a light saber and demolishes it, thinking the microwave is attacking her. She thinks that her friends that are meeting her at the convention have sent him as a joke. Lorgin won’t leave her side which Deana finds quite irritating and forcing her to take him on the trip with her. Where after dinner he sees the necklace that she bought at the junk shop on her and realizing what it is he makes his oath to her and asks for and oath in return she still thinking it is some kind of joke agrees. Once they are back in the hotel room he opens a portal and sweeps her off to his universe. Where she is totally taken aback and starts learning things may not always be what they appear to be. Lorgin takes her for much more than she thinks she and he refuses to believe her in this matter. She helps Lorgin to see things in his world that he would not see without a females touch otherwise.

Dara Joy has woven a wonderful futuristic romantic tale between these two star-crossed lovers. I look forward to reading more of her books. She takes you on a delightful journey through worlds that you never thought possible. When you finish reading this book you will want to read more.
