Blurb:Sixteen years ago, Princess Halla of Yshrem saved the life of an eight-year-old barbarian boy and watched her kingdom fall to ruin, all on the same day. Now, she is a forgotten spinster in a quiet temple, living her days out in solitude. The last of her line, she exists in the hope that she has been forgotten, for to be remembered by the enemy is to be certain death.
One person has not forgotten her. Mathior, now twenty-four, is the fierce warrior king of the Cyclopae. Yshrem is in turmoil and his advisors have a suggestion - kill the last remaining member of the royal line, and there will be no rivals for the throne.
Mathior has a different idea. He's loved Halla for sixteen long years, and it's time he claimed her as his wife. But a barbarian's wedding customs are unlike any other...
This book was just one giant soft porn. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed it for that alone. But the characters were one dimensional with little back story so I didn’t really connect to them in a deep level. Add to the fact that it was a short story anyway so we generally don’t get a lot of origin story to go off in the first place. That makes this one only ok. Actually I was surprised at how much I didn’t love it. I think this might be my least favorite RD book to date. And I LOVE RD. Oh, well. its not like I don’t have a bazillion other books by her to read, lol.
