Cartelite

Jewel ran away from an arranged marriage and the Cartel Worlds with just her wits to help her. She returns as one of the wealthiest and most sought-after people in the galaxy. But with great wealth comes even greater danger. Jewel and her new husband must navigate social norms and political mazes that make avoiding hit squads look easy. And the friends of her childhood aren’t quite the people she remembers. They’re all anxious to renew their relationships with her, but which of them are truly trustworthy? Jewel once forced the narrow-minded Armenites to realize that she was indeed an Empyreal. Now she must remind her own people that she is still a Cartelite!
