The Queen's favorite, the slave Arianna, is framed for her mistress' murder. Escaping, she meets the general who had also been set up for destruction—Karan. In giving him her heart she will risk her life. She can find no evil in the heart of the man who has saved her.

Disbelieved by the Queen he's served faithfully, his family destroyed and branded to symbolize his descent into shame, Karan can't believe the beautiful Arianna treats him as a man of worth and is willing to risk her life to retrieve something that belongs to him, and is still within the palace.

A story of selfless love, courage, and the daring of a woman to rescue something for the man she loves. I like it when women are shown to be smart, strong—not necessarily of body, but spirit—and unafraid to be sexy. This was a good read.
