Part of Series
A match has been made for Arik, crown prince of the pleasure planet, Obsidian, with Emerald, first daughter of displaced Earthling, Eli the jeweler. Maimed in a firefight that nearly took his life, Arik dares not hope his princess will want him despite his scars. At their mating, he hides within a black leather bodysuit that exposes only his eye and his sex. Soon, however, Emerald demands to see him. Love triumphs even in a fearsome world where even a prince must submit to unthinkably cruel laws, as Arik vows to right century-old wrongs when he ascends Obsidion's diamond throne. Revised from the novella, Diamond in the Rough, first published by Changeling Press.

Librarian Note: There is more than one author in the GoodReads database with this name. See this thread for more information. First published in 1996, Jacobs has sold close to fifty books and novellas. SANDSTORMS was a 2007 nominee for the prestigious ROMANTIC TIMES Reviewers' Choice award for best erotic romance. Her books have earned awards including the Passionate Plume (best novella, 2006, second place contemporary, 2008), the Desert Rose (best hot and spicy romance, 2004) and More Than Magic (best erotic romance, 2004). She has been a double finalist in separate categories of the EPPIES and From the Heart RWA Chapter’s contest. Three of her books have been translated and sold in several European countries. A CPA and former hospital financial manager, Jacobs now writes full-time, with the help of Mr. Blue, the family cat who sometimes likes to perch on the back of her desk chair and lend his sage advice. He sometimes even contributes a few random letters when he decides he wants to try out the keyboard. (Most of the time Blue just curls up, hides his eyes with his paws...and sleeps!)
