Product Description

From the Author

Why I loved writing Dark Emerald
I loved writing this book! Why? Because of the hero and heroine. Rhys, known as the Bastard Outlaw, is a perfectly irreverent and tarnished knight, a rogue outlaw who is determined to seek revenge against his half brother and current baron who banished him and left him for dead years before. Tara, who may or may not be the rightful heir to the castle has in her possession the legendary Dark Emerald, a stone that is as beautiful as it is cursed. When Rhys and Tara meet, their quests become one and their worlds collide. Passion vies with truth, and as they fall in love they realize they are doomed to be forever enemies. Theirs is a story of passion, daring, romance and above all else, love--a romantic adventure that touches the soul. As I said, I loved writing it! --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

By A Customer
Format:Paperback

By 1290 Wales, the birth of Tara of Gaelf remains buried in mystery. Some locals believe she is a noble's lost daughter. Others feel she is a witch, child of a midwife. The only known thing about Tara is a DARK EMERALD ring that she has always owned, which might prove she is the rightful heir to Twyll.

Tremaine exiled his half-brother Rhys, who now leads a bunch of thieves. Rhys rescues Tara when Tremaine's men try to abduct her, but, in turn holds her as his prisoner. He quickly realizes that if she is Twyll, than his father was the murderer of her parents. Still, Tara does not trust her jailer or her heart, which announces she loves Rhys. He shocks himself by finding he loves his bewitching prisoner. However, she constantly tries to escape until ultimately she forces the final showdown.

DARK EMERALD is a complex Medieval romance that will gain much acclaim for Lisa Jackson. The story line moves forward on several levels that ultimately tie together in an exciting finish. The lead characters are a passionate duo while the secondary players strengthen the entire novel. Ms. Jackson has struck a gemstone mine with her "Jewel" trilogy (see DARK RUBY)

surprised..but not in the good way 22 Mar 2005
By bobby - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Well it started off interesting enough. It had all the makings of an interesting novel but somewhere along the line it became incredibly tedious. First there was the missing child, then the mysterious emerald, the outlaw, and a beautiful pagan, and a villain bent on revenge. It had all the makings of an interesting novel. But it became incredibly boring half way through. I couldn't believe all the good reviews for this novel. If you have read any other of Ms. Jackson's novels you know what I mean when I say this doesn't measure up to rest of her works. Tara is a headstrong heroine but all the stupid things she kept doing just got plain annoying instead of me applauding her bravery after her attempts of escape. Another thing I didn't like was that the villain was too evil. It was like good vs. evil, plain black and white when in reality it isn't really like that. When I usually read Ms. Jackson's books there are shades of gray between the good guys and bad guys. It makes it more believable and easier to read. The relationships between the two characters were unrealistic and premature. I didn't believe them one bit. It was like the book wasn't long enough for them to develop proper a relationship. All in all I was extremely disappointed in reading it, not what I expected at all.

I like it 20 Sep 2004
By R. Jefferson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I just finished reading Dark Emerald. This is the 3rd book I've read by Lisa Jackson and I've yet to be disappointed. The chemistry between the two characters, Tara and Rhys, was great. The storyline was pretty good and it also had a small twist at the end of the book. I recommend it, I don't think you will be disappointed.
