Synopsis (Goodreads):
An alien emperor. A silent young woman.Thoughts on Ella and the Emperor: I read this series slightly out of order (what can I say? I have a weakness for bearded, blue aliens who give off a strong Viking vibe--Helllllo, Athtar--and couldn't resist Faith's cover), so I had a wee bit of insight into Ella's situation going into this book. That said, I was pretty much smitten with her innocent sweetness in the face of the judge-y eyes and general viciousness and backstabbing that goes hand in hand with the people in Karthajin's palace.
Captured by aliens as a child, Ella was raised as the beloved pet of a kind alien couple. One night of blood and terror destroyed her sheltered life and shattered her voice. Now she’s a slave in the emperor’s palace.
Alone in a terrifying new world, she clings to the person who saves her - the dashing young emperor. But the handsome alien also arouses unfamiliar longings in her heart.
When Emperor Karthajin rescues a silent female from an attack, he does not expect to become an object of worship to the enchanting little creature.
New to the throne, surrounded by smiling faces and hidden enemies, he finds unexpected comfort in the innocent human who trusts him so completely. But as his feelings grow stronger, so does his reluctance to expose her to the viciousness of the Imperial Court.
Can an emperor lose his heart to a human slave? And will his empire ever accept such a match?
Not that ALL of them were bad, but the few who treated her like an equal were the exception, rather than the rule. At least at first.
Frankly, her kindness, intelligence, and sweetness won over most of Karthajin's inner circle without much effort on her part.
As for the emperor, Karthajin is in a sticky place surrounded by a lot of people who are looking out for themselves more than him. Well, wait. That's not exactly true. He does have quite a few people who he can trust. There are just a whole lot of people at court who would as soon watch him burn as throw water on him in an emergency. Which is kind of a weird analogy, but there you go.
A silent slave who knows more than she knows she knows and an emperor trying to do right by his people. MAN, I like these aliens!
