BOOK SYNOPSIS
Blair Reynolds was born to rule. Worlds, that is. Destined to reign over an
ancient intergalactic race, it may seem her fate is written in the stars. But she’s willing to risk it all for
another chance to spend forever with her true love – even if it means traveling through time and space
to the other side of the universe.

As far as Ash is concerned, Blair's happily-ever-after involves him, not the
mere mortal with whom she seems so infatuated. She was bequeathed to him by her father, and Ash
will go to any lengths to keep Blair and her true love apart.

EXCERPT
I was no longer a bystander to this story. I was the story. Every secret
interwoven through the tale I’m about to tell you belongs to me. And the summer I graduated from high
school was the summer everything came together in a horrible clash of good versus evil.
Packing up and leaving my small, inconsequential, southeast Texas
hometown meant leaving part of myself behind. I said goodbye to the human side of me when we piled
into David’s truck and drove away from our home. And I waved farewell to any hope of ever returning as
I watched our home slip into the shades of night.
Everything had been turned upside down, and deciding what was good
and what was evil was like looking through sunglasses at night. It all washed together in a murky blend
of darkness, shadows, and secrets.
My biggest secret of all was one for which I had no answer: which one was
I – good or evil? I stuffed that secret deep behind my ribs and swallowed it down.
Some secrets are best kept in the darkness away from prying eyes and
those who would seek to face them head-on. Some secrets kill.
MY REVIEW:
MONARCH IS BOOK 3 IN THE SERIES. EVEN THOUGH I DID NOT READ THE OTHER 2 BOOKS IN THE SERIES, THIS BOOK WAS EASY TO FOLLOW. I FOUND MYSELF DRAWN IN THE STORY FROM THE BEGINNING TO THE END. BELLE DOES AN EXCELLENT JOB OF EXPLAINING EVERYTHING ALONG THE WAY SO I NEVER FELT LOSS AT ALL IN THE STORY. MONARCH HAS EVERYTHING ROMANCE, SCI-FI PARANORMAL, ACTION AND EVEN ALIENS. I LOVE THE COMBINATION OF GENRES AND REALLY ENJOYED THE STORY. I WAS NOT BORED FOR ONE SECOND. THIS WAS A VERY FAST READ FOR ME. I LOVE THE AUTHOR'S WRITING. SHE IS AN EXCELLENT STORYTELLER AND KNOWS HOW TO DRAW THE READERS IN. I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO READING MORE BOOKS BY BELLE WHITTINGTON AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU READ THIS SERIES. I AM DEFINITELY INTERESTED IN READING THE OTHER 2 BOOKS IN THE SERIES. 5 STARS
