Synopsis
HIGHLAND WARRIORS SWORN TO PROTECT INNOCENCE THROUGHOUT THE AGES...
A golden man, he is called Black Royce--a battle-hardened soldier of the gods. His vows are his life--until he is sent to New York City to protect a Healer from those who would use her powers for themselves. The moment Royce sees beautiful, feisty Allie Monroe, he knows she will be his only weakness--and he is right.
DESTINY IS A DANGEROUS THING
Allie Monroe is more than an heiress. She is a Healer, willing to do anything to save victims of the evil that lurks in the city at night. But alone, she can do only so much--until destiny sends her the darkest Highlander of them all. Then evil strikes and Royce is destroyed before Allie's eyes. Now Allie will do anything to save Royce--even if it means going back in time to a dark, dangerous world. Confronting their enemies could cost not only their lives, but their love--for all eternity.

Royce is a strong and capable warrior, and has lived for a long time but has never known love until he sees Allie, and knows that she will be his achilles heel...
The Heroine (Allie Monroe)
Allie Monroe is a powerful healer and one evening is saved by a Golden Man (whom after seeing her mother in a dream who tells her to trust this man) and then she falls in love with Royce, and is horrified after seeing him killed right before her very eyes. So she goes back in time in a attempt to save his life from the demon that killed him in the first place. But in this time Royce is much different, and she goes about to show him how love can change oneself, but never knowing the danger that would follow her in this time.
My Thoughts
Dark Rivals is the second in the Masters of Time series, and I just had such a fun time reading Royce's story. It starts with a tender love story which becomes very emotional when we see Royce being killed, however the story is only at the beginning. Brenda Joyce takes the reader on a thrilling adventure back through time and space, where two people discover that their love is magical and one that will last through the ages. A FANTASTIC READ!!!
My Favorite Quote
He crushed her in his arms, hard and opened her mouth with his lips. She kissed him back, and in unison their pulses soared. "Don't worry. I'm your destiny"
