His Enemy's Daughter was an interesting medieval story. The first half was harder to read because the hero is very tortured and angry because the heroine's father tried to kill him and disfigured his body and face. Soren is gifted the lands of the man who tried to kill him and goes to kill all of his relatives and raize the land. He attacks the keep and during the attack the heroine, Sybilla, is injured in the head and goes blind. Soren almost kills the heroine but gives a last minute reprieve when her people try to save her. Instead he marries her against her will while she is injured. The first half of this book is full of the hero acting angrily toward the heroine but he does not actually abuse her. She takes a long time to recover from her head injury and it takes her even longer to come to terms with the fact she may be blind for life. The second half was easier to read as Soren let go of some of his need for vengence toward Sybilla and her people. He is very tortured by his mangled looks and thinks Sybilla might be a perfect wife because she can't see how horrible his scars look. They slowly get to know each other and start to care about each other as their relationship turns physical. Soren was able to become a better man once he let go of the darkness and anger he carried. Sybilla seemed like a nice woman who struggled realistically with the horror of losing her sight. It was hard to see the hero treating her meanly when she was hurt and blinded but he soon realized she was a good person who didn't deserve his vengence. This was an interesting read that was hard to read at first but got better as the characters learned from their pain. Soren was able to help Sybilla through her grief and anger at being blind because he too had to relearn how to live after his horrible injury that took one of his eyes. Sybilla was able to fall in love with Soren for who he was and he allowed himself to relax around her because she couldn't see him and be horrified about his looks. Overall, not bad for a Harlequin historical especially if you like tortured heroes.
