Author's Note:  The "R" rating here is somewhat misleading.  The few intimate scenes depicted in Guardian Redeemed occur in a very moral and tasteful setting. 

The project to gain Earth’s ratification into the Dil-Terra Interplanetary Alliance has stalled. Doubts assail renowned Chikondran diplomat, Minister Warnach Sirinoya. His anxiety grows more acute when he meets Sandra Warner, the Terran administrative specialist assigned to help steer the massive project back on course. Never could he have imagined their first rocky encounter would alter the direction of his life, ushering him from private turmoil and personal disgrace. Neither could he have dreamed that one day she would inexplicably draw him into legendary mysteries on his own world.

Sandra Warner strives to prove herself while refusing to allow tragic events or her family’s disapproval to derail her goal of building a diplomatic career. Intelligent, driven, and sensitive, she surprisingly finds empathy with the difficult Minister Sirinoya.

Two people from different planets and dramatically diverse backgrounds balance unexpected turns in their relationship with family issues, cultural differences, demanding careers, lofty dreams, and personal sorrows.

Startling imagery and haunting hints of mystery will engage the mind and transport the soul far beyond the ordinary reading experience. As the richness of Chikondran culture reveals symbolic beauty and universal wisdom, a thoroughly intriguing story draws readers into a philosophic blend of romance, mysticism, and spirituality.
