Rating: 5 stars

Consumed by the need to avenge his younger sister's death, Talor mac Donnel slips into enemy territory intent on killing the rival chieftain who cut his sister down in battle.  Though he comes close to succeeding, Talor's plan fails and he is captured.

The enemy chieftain's daughter, Mor, has grown tired of war and wants only to live in peace.  When a crazed enemy breaks in, tries to kill her father, and subsequently captured, Mor's decision to free the prisoner changes everything for both of their tribes.  If Talor can let go of the past and look to the future, the undeniable spark between himself and Mor could be strong enough to finally bring peace to their entire island.

It took me a bit to get into this book, but once I did I could not put it down and I thoroughly enjoyed it.  Though only a few days pass in the events of the book, so much happens and through these major events both Mor and Talor undergo some major character development which, along with all the action, kept me engrossed.  I found both main characters to be likable and was intrigued by the scenes we got from the enemy's prospective as well.  Talor and Mor made a very unlikely couple, but they fit each other well and I enjoyed this well-written story.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.
