Fall From the Moon - Hale CS

A Stranded Voyager

Astrid Carr has traveled the galaxy for years as a protocol specialist, but when her starship fails, even she is unprepared to put down on Teridun Four, a “Do Not Contact” planet due to its medieval Earth development. Life only gets more difficult when she is given two choices—marry Valemar, king of the Bánalfar, or be handed over to the dangerous Cordair.

An Ancient Prophesy

The Alfari have long looked for the Moon Princess, the prophesied savior who will drive away those who threaten Bánalfar and ensure peace. For some reason, they think that someone is Astrid. Her choices limited, Astrid allows them to believe the lie as she seeks to survive in an unknown world. But the lines blur as she grows closer to Valemar and his people, especially when she discovers the secrets the Cordair are hiding.

A Looming War

Though contact with the inhabitants of Teridun Four is forbidden, Astrid has reason to believe that she isn’t the first visitor from space. If her suspicions about the Cordair prove true, there is more at stake than her own fate or even that of her new people—the whole world is in peril. As the expectations around her grow and her own fears rise, Astrid must try to become the person they believe her to be, or civilizations will fall.
