Description

The New York Times bestselling author of The Mulberry Tree weaves a dazzling historical romance about two royal enemies who cannot fight the passion between them.

He was wise, strong, and brave. His destiny was to be king. She was young and beautiful, a warrior princess. Her destiny was to love him.

But when first they met, it was not as princess and king—it was as man and woman only, consumed by a passion so sudden, so deep that the very world exploded with one kiss. Only later, with his touch still burning on her lips, did Jura discover that the knight of her secret tryst had been none other than the hated Prince Rowan.

Rowan, who had returned from far-away England to usurp her brother’s throne...Rowan, who vowed to unite the wild clans under his rule.

Furious, Jura swore her enmity to the golden-haired prince whose glorious visage tormented her days and haunted her nights. But nothing would stop Rowan from ruling over the warring tribes...and nothing would stop him from winning the fierce and lovely Jura as his bride, his Queen, his love....

    Her books are usually GREAT! So I was both shocked and disappointed that this book should be so weak and just all over the place. I gave it 3 stars only because I did finish it and some parts were good but I wish I didn't waste my time.

    This book is fun and exactly what a romance should be. Just enough swords and horses, well defined hero and heroine, non stop action. Puts a smile on your face when you have finished reading.
  • Very disappointing

    Please save your money and time this book is not worth it. Don't get me wrong I love JD recent books but this was not her best.
