Good read. You spent your life hidden away on a remote planet, half-blind and ignored by your father. Then it turns out your father was the poster boy for the Evil Warlord's Society and with his death everybody wants a piece of you. Some want you dead, some want you as a figurehead and some want you to legitimize a claim to the throne. And with a 50 million credit bounty on your head, half the galaxy wants to capture you. What's a girl to do?

You spent your life as a double-agent with the sole goal to bring down the Warlord and the other Battle Lords including, make that especially, the miserably abusive man others call your father. Now it's time to go looking for your bride, the girl you fell in love with when you were both children, and get her away to peace, security and freedom. Don't you hate it when the Universe has other plans?

Like the previous book, we are following several characters. In addition to the heroine and hero mentioned above; the situation with Haley and Bolivarr from Moonstruck is resolved, with some real surprises along the way.

This is book 2 of the Tales of the Borderland and follows Moonstruck. Read Moonstruck first - the story arc begun in Moonstruck is completed in The Warlord's Daughter.

Not my kind of book but enjoyable just the same (I picked it up because I like Susan Grant's romances). Intergallactic warfare and warlords galore. I liked Wren though she was innocent, naive and sheltered from the atrocities of her warlord (king) father.

Aral, also a warlords child, was physically abused by his father and turned traitor to rescue the planet from the constant warring. Aral vowed to rescue Wren from her father's tyrany and sparks flew when he actually gets the chance. Wren and Aral's courtship was rushed due to cramped quarters on the spaceship but sweet nonetheless.

Once you get past the fighting in the beginning of the book and peace reigns, then the fun begins. At this point, I actually began to enjoy the story. This is the sequel to [book:Moonstruck|2720900] which I didn't read.
