An enjoyable storyline following Keila Fearn's feelings for the handsome rogue that she is treating. Adair causes Keila to wonder how her heart feels and what she really wants.

A charming rogue, a woman with responsibilities, a highland romance you won't forget...

Lowlander Adair has more charm and wit than any one man has a right to, despite being abandoned by his mother when only four. Granted one year’s leave from his duties to the Elliot Clan, Adair travels to the Highlands in search of kith and kin, enjoying whichever women catch his eye along the way. But no one can hold him, and he always leaves the next morning.

Until he is beaten senseless and wakes to find his wounds being tended by a red-headed, emerald-eyed beauty who has him questioning his roguish ways.

Orphaned at birth, Keila Fearn spent her early years being shuffled from one relative to the next. But at the age of ten, Keila’s greatest wish is granted when she is given Drummin House by Euphemia I, Countess of Ross, a woman she has never met. The only rule? She can never wed, or the house will revert back to the Earl of Buchan.

The idea of marriage has never appealed, so Keila works hard to remain self-sufficient and does everything possible to keep her home. She is content with her life and needs nothing more, until the battered stranger left on her doorstep shows her that a home is nothing without a heart

If you love sexy highlanders than you must read Alison Butlers stories filled with love, loss and redemption in the magical settings she creates.

*I never got around to reading and reviewing this book. I may do so in the future*

I received a free copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Pet peeve: The author keeps changing the name of the main character from Adair to Dair and back again.

Adair got a blow to the head and cannot recall who he is, this is reasonable, happens quite often with a blow to the head. What is not reasonable is the fact that he recalls his precise age (six and twenty), his "exceptional skill with a sword" which is all the more remarkable as he awakens without his weapon, and can in fact, recall the names of his two best friends as well as his lord and lady and the name of his home. Yet none of this he shares with the person healing him. Why does he not ask for a letter to be sent to his home explaining he was attacked?

Than as he begins to move about, he receives his coin purse back and is able to determine it is still full, and he was not robbed. Again, a precise detail about his life.

Than he sits outside and contemplates the changing of the seasons and how if he had a wife he may like the colder months, but as he only has pretty lasses in his bed, he prefers the warmer. Than he thinks he cannot marry until he knows who he is as he recalls how his mother abandoned him at age four. He clearly knows who he is, what he is, and how he has been. All he lacks is his own name, which he would know if he just wrote to his lord and lady and told them what had befallen him.

Than of course falls the never-ending coincidences that lead to Adair discovering he is the bastard son of an Earl, his mother really loved him after all, and a tidy HEA (well, so long as you do not count the people who died for Adair and Keila to find happiness, and those who were rent homeless).
