Jacinda's Challenge (Imperial #3)
Author: M.K. Eidem
Desc: Jotham is the King of the House of Protection. He was the youngest male ever to assume the position because of the sudden death of his father in Jotham’s twentieth cycle. In the last forty cycles he married his life mate Lata and lost her in a transport accident. He had two sons and lost one due to his son’s own treachery. Now his first son Barek is interested in a woman and Jotham is going to find out everything about her he can. Jacinda is from the House of Healing. She is the widow of an Assemblyman for the House of Protection. Stephan was her life mate even though he was twenty cycles older than her. His sudden death devastated her and if it weren’t for her three children she isn’t sure she would have survived. In the years that have followed his death she has learned to live with her loss and more importantly has learned that life can still be good. She has healed. When Jotham summons Jacinda to the Palace his only intent is for her to help him gather information on Amina Jacinda’s great-niece. That plan goes out the window when Jacinda refuses. She challenges not only his right to interfere in Barek’s life but questions how he's lived his own since Lata’s death. Two strong personalities come together after having loved and suffered the loss of that loved one. Can they find enough common ground and courage to chance a new love? Or are they destined to live the rest of their lives alone?
