Riv is a bounty hunter, disguised as a man, who has a horse that can turn into a dragon. Which is why Shula sneaks out, gets in trouble, and has to be rescued by our straight (but demisexual!) woman, Rivka. But, she hasn’t really gotten confident in the role yet, and she also has two problems: one, she can’t eat wheat or poultry and has only barely convinced her cooking staff to believe her… with the exception of (two) Aviva, her sweetheart, who recently left both the palace and Shulamit with no clear explanation. In summary (and hopefully without too many major spoilers): Shulamit, our gay woman (as it were) has just been crowned queen of the tropical nation of Perarch.

Not to mention, she's the victim of severe digestive problems that everybody think she's faking. At twenty, grief-stricken and fatherless, she's also coping with being the only lesbian she knows after her sweetheart ran off for an unknown reason. Queen Shulamit never expected to inherit the throne of the tropical land of Perach so young.
