Leona Bestolie -#1 AKA-Galaxy Dancer

Leona Bestolie legally ran away from home with the help of the lottery which required four years of public service. She signed up to work as a courier for an ambassador on another planet.  Her plan was after her four years she would be of age to legally make her own decision on what to do with her life, and hopefully she would be out of the reach of her family to stop her. An offer was made to send her to a school to see if she could pass the test to be an Observer working for who she only knew as HQ. Nothing military or acting as a spy, only Observing.  On her graduation she registered as an entertainer and hired a talent agent that wasn’t heavy handed with her jobs as long as she was a steady earner. She signed a contract as a dancer on a space cruise ship which spent ten months in space stopping at various space ports and planets. For nineteen years she balanced her work dancing and sending reports from the various ports of call to HQ. Unexpectantly her talent agent retired, selling her contract that had three more years to it, to a more assertive and ambitious talent agent. His plan for Leona was to mentor a troubled and difficult diva for ten months and in return, he would legally end her contract with him. This disruption of her routine life aboard the ship came at the same time a sudden change in leadership at HQ that brought a disturbing shift in the handling of the Observers.  Leona’s life took on a chaotic as well as life changing course though, not entirely unpleasant.

What can a frustrated weekend artist do when an unexpected windfall drops in her life after the loss of her lifelong supporter, her mother? Shelly Abbot’s passion and relaxation was her art, which unfortunately took a backseat to her major distractions and stresses. She had a difficult supervisor at work, was still recovering from a heartbreaking relationship, and wasn’t able to face prospective customers to sell her art. Her mother offered her help as a partner, to sell the art work that was taking space up in her garage. Reluctantly, Shelly agreed, knowing it meant the customers would want to meet the artist. So when her mother died, an unimaginable change in her life occurred.  She inherited more money than she could imagine, which gave her free time to work on her art, have a designed workshop, and hire an art agent. However, with the money came responsibilities and new relationships, as old and new required her to work on her social skills. Also, in both the art world and her new financial world, she has unexpected challenges that are dangerous and sometimes life threatening.
