One Starry Knight

Young adult fantasy author Christine E. Schulze joins forces with thirteen diverse artists to create this special edition of her interracial fairy tale romance novella:

"My heart was not broken, so do not think to fix it. I did rescue you. And I will care for you. But I will never fall in love with you."

Thus Sir Kaos Jaspar declares to Evren, the young damsel he rescues from the slave market on his journey south. Always south. Evren doesn't understand why he is so focused on the south, or what made the scars on his arms-or what created the bigger scars on his heart, the ones that keep him from opening his heart to anyone, including her. She doesn't even really understand why he saved her in the first place. All she understands is that she wants desperately to save him in return.

Impossible, it seems. But Kaos is not the only one with secrets. There is more than meets the eye with Evren as well. More that has to do with the way she can see in the dark, make wishes on a sunset gemstone, and tell stories about a mysterious people who live in the stars.

Sometimes, all it takes is just a little bit of faith and a wish upon a star to bring love and healing to life.
What Readers Are Saying




"One Starry Knight was an unexpectedly sentimental book and one that I would read again. It's simplicity gave it a certain beauty and truthfulness not often found and it's ending had me more than a little willing to read more of Schulze's novels."

Savannah Sutton, Goodreads

"I'm not a fan of romantic stories, but I really did enjoy this one. I didn't expect the ending at all! I liked the theme of redemption, forgiveness, and second chances throughout, and Kaos was a fascinating character. I appreciated the author's decision to keep us readers guessing about his dark past until the end."

Sarah Jolly, Goodreads

"Sort of like Tangled. Absolutely stunning, there are little words which can describe the sort of emotion that this story invokes... Miss Schulze has been known to write fantastical stories that have the feel of adventure and always ends with the soul of redemption, this goes a little deeper than that especially being a story that is so personal to the author. It allows you to see the soul of who she is as a person and I think that is very special... This is more than a love story or a tale of forgiveness, this is the heart of a talented and beautiful person laid bare for others to see, and I think that is a very brave thing for someone to do. I would definitely recommend this story to anyone I can because it is worth reading, thank you so much, Miss Schulze, for blessing this mortal plane with your ethereal stories, whatever doubt plagues you about the success of this story is false for you have made something that will be remembered for ages to come."
