A Promise of Fire by Amanda Bouchet

What happens when you mix together a hero and heroine, who are equally matched in their stubbornness and passion, and place them into a forced-kidnapping situation, while throwing in some very lovable and mischievous secondary characters, warring kingdoms, dangerous creatures, magical battles, and mythological shenanigans? You get pure reading delight - an unputdownable new series to fall in love with.
