Book 3
Lady Abigail of Blackmore is being sent by her father to marry the vile Lord Shrewsbury in return for the release of her brother. When a thief robs them on the road, she sees him as her opportunity to run from a life that no longer suits her.
Madoc ap Powell has been raised as a peasant, knowing nothing about his true heritage. In order to survive, he has lived his life as a thief. He is known for his disguises, and being a master of illusion is his best skill. But when the Lady Abigail hunts him down to retrieve her stolen dagger, he finds that he is not the only one looking to escape a life of doom.
And when she begs him to let her travel with him, she is very disappointed to find out that he is heading for Shrewsbury, the last place she wants to go. Madoc knows if caught helping her, he will once again end up in a dungeon, but something about her calls to him just as much as he makes her feel alive for the first time in her life.
Two people, both looking to find the answers of their past are drawn to each other. But it is bound to end badly when they are from two opposite realms of life. A lady on the run and a thief need to escape from themselves before they are prisoners to the attraction they feel toward one another in Lord of Illusion.
