A princess on the run, an ex-slave
returning home. Together they must battle prejudice and superstition if their
love is to survive.
When Princess Milenda arrives at Isvärld, a
land of snow and ice, she’s hoping for a quiet life with her new husband,
Jaali. What she gets is anything but.
Even though happy he’s returned, Jaali’s
people can’t see past the color of Milenda’s skin, a color she shares with the
hated Mabaya Warriors who have been stealing and selling their children into
slavery for centuries.
Freya, a goddess of the icy kingdom, tasked
with protecting the princess and her man, doesn’t seem trustworthy, and their
only true ally is Milenda’s flying lizard, Mjusi. But even the mutsi is acting
strangely.
Will their love for each other and
Milenda’s special gifts protect them from the dangers around them or will they
meet their doom in the one place that promised them safe harbor?
Snow Jewel is the second
book in The Jewel Chronicles. A unique interracial romance set against a
breathtaking fantasy world with complex characters and twists at every turn.
Let Snow Jewel take you to another world.
“Wait until you see the northern lights.”
Jaali had come from behind, silent on bare feet, and wrapped his arms around
her waist, resting his chin on her shoulder. Milenda felt immediately soothed
and turned her face to lightly kiss the corner of his mouth. “When the night
sky lights up with the wavering lights of the midnight sun, it’s almost as if
looking into another world.”
“Midnight sun? Is that a real thing?” She
wiggled in place, so her back would fit better with the curve of his body
leaning against her. The sun had not fully risen, still peeking shyly from
behind the white horizon and painting the snow in a rainbow of oranges and
reds, the same colors of the Afrikan sun at the crack of dawn.
Jaali laughed softly. “Not really. That’s
just what we call it.” He tightened his hold on her, turning his face to kiss
the sensitive spot behind her ear. “The scientists call it a collision of
particles. When the particles of the sun meet those of our atmosphere, it
creates this amazing display of lights. It’s pretty romantic
actually.”
It was Milenda’s turn to laugh. “Romantic?
Particles crashing into each other? A bit too scientific to be romantic, don’t
you think?” At the university in Natale, Milenda had never found the time to
take science classes, other than the basic ones. Science fascinated her, but
not as much as art. She’d chosen art instead.
The Fjorden’s hand starfished across her
stomach, the heat of his palm making Milenda shiver in delight. From the corner
of her eye, she could see the soft glare of her matangazos reacting to his
touch.
“Think about it.” His soft, melodious voice
blew a gust of warm air into her ear. “These particles are floating around in
space, lonely and lost until they find their polar opposites. Their joining is
so overwhelmingly pleasurable and fulfilling that they explode in a colorful
firework of lights across the sky.”

Author of We Will Always Have the Closet,
Desert Jewel, and Loved You Always, Natalina wrote her first romance in
collaboration with her best friend at the age of 13. Since then she has
ventured into other genres, but romance is first and foremost in almost
everything she writes.
After earning a degree in tourism and
foreign languages, she worked as a tourist guide in her native Portugal for a
short time before moving to the United States. She li
ved in three continents and a few islands,
and her knack for languages and linguistics led her to a master’s degree in
education. She lives in Virginia where she has taught English as a Second
Language to elementary school children for more years than she cares to admit.
Natalina doesn’t believe you can have too
many books or too much coffee. Art and dance make her happy and she is pretty
sure she could survive on lobster and bananas alone. When she is not writing or
stressing over lesson plans, she shares her life with her husband and two adult
sons.
