THE WASTELANDER: He was nothing but an outlaw, yet he was Tallia’s only hope of crossing the perilous desert to reach her home. He was arrogant and rough-mannered, yet in his piercing eyes she saw secrets: past sorrows he refused to share, and a smoldering desire that both frightened and fascinated her.
THE HEALER: Sheltered and refined, she was a gentle beauty who had no place with a man bent on revenge. Yet Tynan sensed a mysterious strength deep within Tallia, a strength that would be severely tested as her true identity was revealed, and she was called upon to prove her love for the wastelander who had stolen her heart.
