Lost in Beauty

By Gloria Clover

Description:

A dying island. A traditional pharaoh ... a princess beaming with change.
Princess Mina Everheart is thrilled with the opportunity to introduce the people of Osaze Island to the King and free them from their fixation on outward appearance. Her mantra, "Win the pharaoh; win the island," proves difficult since the pharaoh clings to his professional mask as closely as his official paint covers his skin.
As pharaoh and the divine son of the sun god Aten, Hawk must keep up appearances. But if he is divine, why is he rendered immobile by the weight of his responsibilities? When the prophesied princess arrives, he expects her to assist, not undermine, his endeavors.
When Aten explodes, the citizens erupt in fear and aggression. To save their nation, Mina and Hawk must unite beyond pretense and surrender heart and soul to the King who outshines the sun.

Book Takeaway:

God is always more than we think or believe.

Why the author wrote this book:

When written from the heart, the Children of the King series is adventure and romance with a flavor of fantasy. When written from the head, the Children of the King series is set around a known characteristic of an ancient culture that translates into a modern deception of our current culture. Lost in Beauty focuses on Egypt's belief that appearance matters more than substance. But I write all stories for the reader who needs to know or be reminded that we live in a spiritual battleground with an enemy who deceives to destroy.
