When Lady Syrah Dhion first met Prince Jibril she was 13 years old and lost her heart to him. When she next met the Prince she was 19 years old and was trying to gain back her family estate for her 14 yr old brother. Her family estate had been lost due to the actions of an underhanded relative. In order to oust this relative, Syrah needed large sums of cash to hire a mercenary. The only way Syrah could think of to raise the cash was to kidnap the Prince and hold him for ransom. Thus began a game of chess using those in her life as real chess pieces. Between Syrah's kidnapping tactics, her bullheadedness and her brother's tall tales, coupled with what Syrah sees as betrayal from the royal family, the plot has lots of twists and turns.
This book is full of humor, intrique, love and romance.
