Book Review By M. Andrews
Dream Lover by Virginia Henley

Sean O'Toole has only one goal in life. To get his revenge on the Montagues. He would start by kidnapping Emerald FitzGerald Montague from her evil father.

Emerald thought her life was over. She had nothing to live for and her father had turned her into an English mouse of a woman because he hated the Irish half of her. She married a man she hated and she wasn't really living so much as existing.

Until Sean came along.

Emerald had met Sean only once in her life many years ago when she and her family were in Ireland. She was highly attracted to him then but she as little more than a child. Now all grown up, she had no problem with Sean kidnapping her and taking her back to Ireland.

Sean's plan was simple. Kidnap Emerald, turn her back into the Irish beauty she used to be, get her pregnant with his child, and send her back to the man who murdered his brother. Her father.

He just did not count on falling in love with her in the process. Now he has a bigger dilemma. Revenge, or love?
