A Daring Sacrifice is well written love story, by Jody Hedlund. A story of sacrifice and loyalty. Juliana was a nobleman born into that life. When her uncle wrongs her and her father is killed she flees and lives with the poor peasants. She takes care of these people by stealing from the noblemen. Daily, she sacrifices her life for the peasants to make sure they have something to eat, knowing that if she were caught she would be harmed, or killed.Then she is captured by Collin, a childhood acquaintance. He recognizes her for who she is brings her back to his castle and makes a bargin with her that he will give her a purse of money if she stays with him for a week. She then makes the deal if he agrees to stay with her the week after and she where she lives and how the poor live.
Neither of them thought about what would happen when her uncle came to the castle as an invited guest. If he found out who she was what would he do? So Julianna flees the castle. Collin realizes that he wants to marry her and goes after her. Does she feel the same? Did uncle capture her? Will Collin win his bet and make Julianna realize where she came from and what she deserves? Will Collin see the poor and want to join/help them? You just have to read it to find out. What a great love story about sacrifices, the true meaning of love, where it will carry you and what it can make you do.
