About This Book
Egypt, Middle Kingdom
The 11th Dynasty
Aria had a dream, and that was to serve as an Egyptian Priestess. Since she was twelve, she prepared her mind and body to serve the God, Amun Ra. However, when she was sixteen, her parents had another future planned for her. A marriage to a young, twenty-two year old warrior, named Mitry.
The marriage would not be consummated until he returned from his service to the Pharaoh. That bought her time and there was a possibility he'd never return.
For over four years, she studied the ancient scriptures and moved up in the ranks fulfilling her dream. In those four years, she'd gained status as High Priestess and realized she would never give herself to any man, especially to a man she didn't know.
Mitry survived and became one of the Pharaoh's important Generals. With his service up, he came for her. She was defiant, and she begged him to release her from her vows. Noble and proud, he refused. Heartbroken and defeated, she journeyed with him to her new home in Memphis.
In the face of adversity, Aria will learn what true love is. She'll learn to swallow her pride and allow Mitry to become her strength and her lover. With him, she will experience a love so deep; it will defy the Gods.
