About this ebook

A prince raised in honor and tradition, a woman raised with nothing at all. She wants to steal their most sacred treasure. He’ll do anything to protect it, even if it means marrying a thief. 

Prince Jin is a man raised in honor and tradition, so it comes as a great surprise when he is compelled to claim a stranger as his bride who has neither. Francesca La Rosa is hardly a match fit for a prince. Though beautiful, she is a thief with one thing on her mind—stealing the sacred Jade Phoenix of his people. But the mystery doesn’t end there. With the aid of his ancestral spirits, he must discover who this woman is, why she would destroy the Zhang Empire and, most of all, if she could ever return the love that is growing in his heart.

Book One of the Dynasty Lords series by NY Times and USA TODAY Bestselling Author, Michelle M. Pillow.

"Enjoyable!" Ann Wilwert, RT BOOKreviews, July 2006

Princess Mei's (The Pirate Prince - Lords of the Var Book 5) brother Jin gets his story told (though truth be told - I was hoping that Haun's story would be first). I liked Francesca more than I liked and Jin. Tha whole Zhang family (with the exception of Mei) are really steeped in honor and tradition and can barely see past it. Francesca is following the path of her Master and it leads to a conflict with the Zhang family. The story is good and brings back some favorites from The Pirate Prince. Once again Zhang ancestors set events in motion. Though not action packed (like the Dragon Lords or the Lords of Var) this story has lots of personal reflection for the two main characters. I am hoping the the author will expand the Dynasty Lords and give all of the Zhangs a story.

A prince steeped in family tradition and a beautiful thief, what more do you need for an engaging love story. It is a well crafted tale with a wonderful mix of both ancient customs and modern technologies. Added to that, having interesting characters and plenty of action and drama, make this a good read. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Prince Jin is compelled by the ghost of an ancestor to claim a woman as his future bride, unfortunately, the woman is a thief caught trying to steal from his family! Jin is driven by honor and tradition so cannot go back on his word and must try to make it work. Francesca is a thief, a very good thief, she manages to get past the palace guards with ease, but she still gets caught and cannot understand how! But she is determined to have her revenge and will not stop until it is achieved. This was an entertaining read, the attraction between Prince Jin and Francesca is undeniable but they have a lot to overcome before they can have their happily ever after. I voluntarily received and reviewed an ARC copy of the book.
