In the face of Human slavery, Black Sword Commander Ariela of Kassouk must do the unthinkable. Rebel against the Mutant regime. But she cannot do it alone.

Ariela suspects the king's death is no accident. And the tyrant who usurped the throne looks guilty as hell. As leader of the Human rebellion against the Mutant rulers, Ariela is desperate for help, and Lord Starro, the handsome Crown Prince of the Star Children, offers the technology the Human faction lacks. But can Ariela trust a spoiled, arrogant foreign prince who never fought a battle, and thinks he is destined to rule the universe? Is she trading one tyrant for another? No matter how kind, handsome, or fascinating, Starro has frightening mental abilities. And this alliance is not safe, especially for Ariela's heart.

Editorial Reviews

"Wow! Talk about a real page turner! I absolutely Adored Blue Lioness. Ms. Schartz is an incredible storyteller...The world building is so imaginative in this story that it just kept me turning the pages late into the night, because I was desperate to see what happened next and to see if Ariela and Starro were going to get their happy ending... science fiction romance with stellar world building, and a beautiful love story, oh, and sentient big cats... Ms. Schartz is not to be missed!" Coffee Time Romance

"Her plot is intense, adventurous with battle and love scenes... memorable characters that shine brightly... and none brighter than her hero Starro and her heroine Ariela, who really rule the pages throughout the novel. Her love story is a favorite of mine: forbidden love that finds a way to survive and succeed... If you love the science fiction genre, especially one with a great romance, this will fit the bill. It did for me." Long and Short Reviews

"Blue Lioness rips along at a great pace, and keeps you scrolling through pages on your e-reader, as fast as you can. Schartz has a very active imagination." Manic Readers
