What will happen when they find out that their actually suppose to be enemies?

Rhys has been banished from Twyll by his evil half brother. As a result he has made a new life for himself as an outlaw. He finds the beautiful and tempting Tara and at the same time sees the Emerald and makes the choice to abduct her for his own purposes. He does not plan on feeling things for his beautiful captive, and these feelings could possibly change his desire for revenge if he lets it. Will he continue with his plan of vengence, or will he follow his heart?

Just wasn't able to get into this book. Tried a couple of time and the story just didn't seem to click or hold my attention. Was disappointed since it sounded so good.

This is a really unique medieval love story. The heroine is an orphan who has an emerald in her possession that is both her birthright and coveted by her enemies. She becomes the prisoner and then companion of an outlaw with ties to those who killed her parents. A wonderful story.

The back cover of this book was easier to understand than the story as it unfolded. I kept putting down the book and reading something else, then coming back and trying again to get interested in the story... which just didn't happen
