(? - ) US software engineer and author who has specialized in broad-gauge Space Operas with romance elements, female protagonists who may be princesses caught up in the kind of intrigues that normally roust Galactic Empires. Examples are the Rogue Queen sequence beginning with The Queen's Gambit (2018), featuring a queen who must win a War while falling in love with her adversary; the Consortium Rebellion sequence beginning with Polaris Rising (2019), whose princess protagonist is on the run; and the Starlight's Shadow sequence beginning with Hunt the Stars (2022), whose protagonist, a bounty hunter, who must take a bad job, and whose feelings for her adversary are ambivalent, but who will perhaps find herself in a position to change the world.
