Nicola M. Cameron

Nicola M. Cameron is a married woman of a certain age who enjoys writing about science fiction, fantasy, and romance. When not writing, she likes to knit and quilt. And she may be rather fond of absinthe. While possessing a healthy interest in romance and sex since puberty, it wasn't until 2012 that she decided to try writing about them. The skills picked up during her SF writing career transferred rather nicely to SF/fantasy/paranormal romance. Her To Be Written work queue currently stands at around nineteen books, and her mojito-sodden Muse swans in from Bali every so often to add to the list, cackling to herself all the while. When not working, Nicola is usually making Stuff™, kissing her husband, or entertaining her cats.

Old Friends

So much paperwork. Matthias sighed, studying the pile of reports, royal decrees, and other items he had to review, approve, deny, or sign before he left the next morning for Hellas and his first wedding anniversary with his wife Danaë. Gods, how am I going to get through all of it?

Many people thought that being king was all about living in a palace, wearing a bejeweled crown, stuffing himself at banquets, and living a soft life. He knew full well that there were lazy royals who did just that and left all the business to their prime ministers or councilors. But a solid work ethic had been instilled in the Ypresian royal family for generations, passed down from parent to child as a sacred duty. As ruler of Ypres, his job—his responsibility—was to lead his
