A nameless orphan growing up as a servant in the king’s household, Brisa learned to survive by adapting. Her closeness in age to Princess Val’Trea put her in place as the princess’s lady maiden, her most trusted personal servant, but Brisa’s look-alike appearance makes her Val’Trea’s commanded stand-in.

Brisa never dreamed the princess would command her to wed on her behalf. When nothing, not even your face, belongs to you, how do you find the courage to say no?
The term ‘Whipping Boy’ is brought to life within the first few paragraphs of this Science Fiction Fantasy. Brisa is a Lady Maid, and a doppelganger for the princess. When the princess doesn’t do something she should, it is Brisa who pays the price.
This is a fast-paced short story that finishes on a cliffhanger, so be warned! There were no editing or grammatical errors, and I enjoyed the premise and layout of the story. Brisa is a strong and compassionate heroine, whilst Val’Trea has a darkness that you don’t know much about yet. She is spoilt and unkind, caring nothing for others – you might even say the exact opposite of Brisa.
Combining Fantasy, Science Fiction, Eroticism, and Religion might not be a combination for everyone, but I thoroughly enjoyed this, and can’t wait to read the second story in this series. Most definitely recommended by me.
