This is the final story in the Royal House series and I was a little disappointed that the final battle was so abrupt.
Micah is such a wonderful character with a "what you see is what you get" attitude and he expects the same from others. Liliana is the daughter of the Blood Sorcerer that destroyed his family. But Micah has no memory of those events since he was only a child when the battle occurred and he was magically whisk to the Black Castle and eventually became the Guardian of the Abyss. Liliana has to restore his memories quickly since time is running out for him to help his siblings destroy the Blood Sorcerer and rescue Elden and its inhabitants. It was several fairy tales rolled into one story and I loved the fact that Micah could fall in love with Liliana dispite her physical appearance.

As for Desert Warrior, this was a 2003 early Singh book that followed the typical Harlequin formula for a desert sheik/captor storyline. It really shows how much this writer has grown and how romance has changed in the last 8 years.
