The Last Lady of Albessind: Tales of Riardan Book 1
Lloyd A. Meeker

Caught in a deadly web of magic and intrigue, Eva inherits an aristocratic legacy she didn’t know about and doesn't want – her murdered mother’s genetic resistance to magic. It might mean death for her, too.
Trapped in a strange world with Talak as her only ally, she has to survive the deadly schemes of her newfound relatives as they maneuver for advantage in a royal court where murder is ambition’s favorite solution.
Talak has loved Eva since long before he saved her life, but he knows his love is hopeless. She must marry a man from a royal bloodline and produce magic-resistant heirs, and he is duty-bound to protect her until she marries—regardless of his torn heart.
Together they must survive intrigue and betrayal, only to discover the star-crossed lovers must choose between letting go of each other or certain death for treason.
That’s a choice Eva refuses to make.
This book was previously published under the title Blood Royal. It has been edited and the ending changed in order to initiate the series Tales of Riardan.
“…a novel that is not only gentle and loving but also intense, fast-paced and suspenseful. The author's prose is smooth and elegant, an unexpected pleasure that raises it above the usual fare.” –Marjorie Reynolds, author of Starlite Drive-in
“Suspense with heart… Eva, the reluctant heroine and Talak, her noble guardian, make a marvelous duo in this world of magic and intrigue.” –Amazon Reviewer
