A Martian misfit...
Molly O'Gara has never really fit in anywhere, born on Mars to Ag farmer parents but adopted and raised by a high-ranking Royal family. Unfortunately Molly lacks the usual skill with plants that go with her birth heritage, while also lacking the prestige she would have as a true Royal. Her only claim to importance is being appointed official Handmaid to the Martian Sovereign, Emileia. Holding such a position is a great honor for a lowly Ag but now that she and Emileia, better known as M, are back on Earth, there is little for Molly to do in that capacity. That is, until a new Royal boy shows up at Jewel High. Though absurdly handsome, Tristan is also arrogant and obnoxious - and seems determined to steal M, the Sovereign, away from her bonded soulmate, Rigel. As Handmaid, Molly's job now is to keep Tristan away from M and Rigel, even if that means spending way more time in his company than she'd like. Such familiarity breeds contempt, on both sides. At first, anyway...
The much-anticipated continuation of the electrifying Starstruck series, where teen romance blends with science fiction to open a whole new world of action, adventure and discovery!
Genre: Young Adult Fantasy
