He's sidhe--a being with powerful abilities--and he's grown up used to getting what he wants. The prince is convinced Imogen will fall in love with him, and that her new powers, once she's turned sidhe, will help his country win a centuries-old feud.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the help of the prince's much more tolerable brother, Imogen starts to get her feet back under her, but even he can't protect her from those who would use her for her powers.

In spite of doing each of these things twice, she couldn't stay warm and relocated to Nashville.
