The Princess and the Scoundrel

by Beth Revis

First published 2022

The Empire has fallen and Darth Vader lies dead, but Han Solo wants nothing more than a quiet life with Princess Leia after years of serving the Rebellion. When he proposes on Endor's forest moon, she says yes without hesitation. Yet their honeymoon aboard the luxury starship Halcyon becomes anything but peaceful. The vessel travels to spectacular worlds across the galaxy, making their marriage a symbol of hope for some and a target for others. Imperial soldiers have scattered to isolated planets, desperate to reclaim power in their darkest hour. As attacks escalate during the Halcyon's journey, Han and Leia discover the war continues despite the Death Star's destruction. Leia struggles with her royal duties and the dark legacy flowing through her bloodline, while Luke offers her training in the Force. The newlyweds must defend their ship and passengers while learning to fight as partners rather than individuals.
