A Kingdom of Dreams by Judith McNaught
5.0
Beautifully written
I read this novel when I was in college and it still pulls at my heartstrings. Jennifer is incredibly brave when she is initially abducted by Royce's army. She uses all types of plots to get away and each time Royce's respond s with anger but not abuse. I loved that they developed an easy friendship where they felt they could be themselves away from the pressures of their clan. During these moments of vulnerability and intimacy Jennifer relates her recurring childhood wish of owning her own kingdom of dreams. It brought tears to my eyes when despite all obstacles trying to keep them a part, in the end Royce makes the ultimate sacrifice in order to honor his wife and gifts her a kingdom of dreams.
