findthatbook Hi all! So I’m hoping you can help me find a book I loved when I was a teenager. The premise was two teenage royals who hated each other but were betrothed to help mend the rift between the two kingdoms. However, as they are were traveling together before their wedding they were set upon by bandits and captured. The two of them were then taken across the boarder to a third kingdom where they were sold into the household of the pretty evil warlord. There one of them thrived and was invited into the household as a guest whereas the other was forced into hard labor and whatnot. Together they had to try to figure out how to escape back to their own kingdoms who were now preparing for war as they each blamed the other for the disappearance of their heir. They ended up leading a revolt and joining a rebellion and becoming the leaders neither of them were at the start of the book. There was a little bit of romance towards the end. I read this book over and over again in the early 2000s. I think the title was some like “the sparrow and the lark”, but clearly it’s not quite that. I hope that someone else remembers this book because I would love to read it again. Thank you!
