Love is the greatest outlaw of all.
Vali Florescu, heir to a powerful local boyar, flees his father's cruelty to seek his fortune in the untamed Carpathian forests. There he expects to fight ferocious bandits and woo fair maidens to prove himself worthy of returning to depose his tyrannical father. But when he is ambushed by Mihai Roscat, the fearsome Crimson Outlaw, he discovers that he's surprisingly happy to be captured and debauched instead.

Mihai, once an honoured knight, has long sought revenge against Vali's father, Wadim, who killed his lord and forced him into a life of banditry. Expecting his hostage to be a resentful, spoiled brat, Mihai is unprepared for the boy to switch loyalties, saving the lives of villagers and of Mihai himself during one of Wadim's raids. Mihai is equally unprepared for the attraction between them to deepen into love.
Vali soon learns that life outside the castle is not the fairy tale he thought, and happy endings must be earned. To free themselves and their people from Wadim's oppression, Vali and Mihai must forge their love into the spear-point of a revolution and fight for a better world for all.
