   - Ei tämänhetkisiä Keskustelu-viestiketjuja tästä kirjasta.  Karla.Brandenburg | Aug 1, 2023 |   I think the writer thought she was making Page sassy but she was a shrew. For most of the book, she argued and said rude things to everyone. That's not sassy, that's just being nasty. It wasn't all bad but it wasn't up to the standards of what I'm used to in my historical romances. (  ) dragonlion | Jul 30, 2022 | Along with the nothing new feeling I had, the insta-lust and the immature heroine had me skimming some pages. The story arcs of the villain feeling wronged and Page's father not wanting her were ok along with the developing romance between Iain and Page but again, not particularly original. There was never an anticipation or feeling of fun to their journey. This was a kindle freebie for me and because the writing and grammar was good, I'd say if you're not an old hat to romances, this is definitely worth the free download.

Retaliating in kind, he captures the daughter of his enemy, planning to bargain with the devil. FitzSimon's daughter has lived her entire life in the shadows of the man she called father-yet never would she have imagined he would deny his only daughter.

Now only the love of her unlikely champion can save the MacKinnon's Bride. MACKINNONS' HOPE Eleven years later, Hugh FitzSimon is a broken man. He is forsaken, alone, a wretch left to wallow in his grief.

Meantime, in the Highlands, the MacKinnon clan faces their darkest hour. With their village destroyed by fire, and winter on the way, how can they rally when whispers of war have begun? At 17, Malcolm MacKinnon has lost his way but a very unexpected "ghost" may yet help him find his way.

I'm not going to rehash the synopsis for you.
Ms. Crosby has written in the style of the times, so it was a bit like reading Shakespeare-awkward at times. I was determined not to like this book when I started, but I quickly discovered that she'd written multi-layered characters, survivors, and their adventure together was enough to keep my interest throughout, in spite of arguing for Stockholm's Syndrome and the odd phraseology and "fun" words she felt it necessary to include. The story transcends all of this. It is a well-done Scottish historical complete with clan loyalty, men in kilts, a traitor amongst them and the hated English.
Well worth the read. (
