Covenanters and Royalists 3.5*
A meeting is about to happen in Edinburgh and at it’s heart is the matter of religion. This story is a hotbed of intrigue and treachery, plus a heroine whose loyalty to her religion and clan leads her into danger. Kirstie overhears a plot to murder her brothers but neither knows the details nor the identity of the plotters and so rather than inform her kin of the danger, she decides to snoop and cosy up to the enemy in order to gain information. Luckily for all concerned, her brothers had already got wind of the plot and had inserted a spy (one Alan Mackenzie/Cameron) into the mix. This was an easy read but I must admit I did want to shake Kirstie towards the end as her common sense was sadly lacking.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
I am always falling for those historical fiction books. They always get me, especially when someone is in danger and we have to think our way out of it. I loved that the female had her own plans to try and figure out what she could do to help stop the plot.
A very well written, highly erotical Highlander story that isn't like so many others. It's all about a a feisty young lady who is about to flirt with each and every man from another clan to find out who wants to kill her brothers.
A well written story. The characters aren't flat and no stereotyps, they are well developed and realistic even though we are in a very different century. It's about love and passion, about fear and about cruelty.

( Highland Pride #3)
Alan Mackenzie can't believe it when his Laird's sister takes on a crazy mission that will get her close to every male in a rival clan, in the hopes of uncovering who's behind the plot to kill her brothers as she has heard whispered in the stables one night. Hemay not be good enough for Kristie, but he'll be damned if anyone else touches her. He's undercover as well, and one false move could betray them both.
Krisite Cameron's brothers are in danger, and if she has to flirt with the enemy to save them, she will.
But her plans are hindered when the annoyingly handsome Alan Mackenzie refuses to leave her alone. Every time she turns around he's there. He broke her heart years ago, and now he's working with the other side. She'll never forgive him if he foils her plans. But Lord in heaven she cannot deny the attraction between them.
He can't seem to stay away and neither can she. Could this temptation get them killed?
Wow what can I say about this book Alan is to die for and Kristine is brave and loyal.
Lori Ann Bailey has written another amazing book that will grab you hook line and sincker. This is one talented lady and she knows exactly what we readers want. If I could give you more then 5 stars I would.
Highland Temptation (Highland Pride #3) by Lori Ann Bailey ...Only 5 stars..are you kidding.. this book kept me on pins and needles... Another great one thanks #NetGalley and Lori... Alan(Mackenzie) Cameron is my latest BBF...he has loved Kirstie forever and is afraid his family faults make him unworthy.. Kirstie Cameron ( Laird Cameron only sister) who has always loved Alan and leaves home when she thinks he rejects her. The Coventanter's are plotting and The Cameron'd and the Royalists have to stop then. The intrigue, danger, heart ache, laughter, tears and steamy love all lead to a HEA for Alan and Kirstie...but I know that there has to be mere coming...
I loved Alan and Kirstie's story!!
Kirstie will be anything to help save her family, even if it means flirting with the enemy. With tensions rising between 2 different religious factions, each side is willing to do anything within their power to win, even if it means murdering the other side.
Alan has broken from Kirstie's family to infiltrate the other side. Unfortunately his attraction to Kirstie may put his mission in jeopardy. When he learns that Kirstie is also trying to save her brothers, Alan must do what he can to keep her safe as well as not blow his cover.
Can Kirstie and Alan save the family that they both hold dearly and take a chance at their own HEA?
I really loved this story and I can't wait to see what Bailey comes up with next!
I received an advanced reader’s copy of this book.
Alan had broken Kirstie’s heart years ago and they finally see each other again. They’re both on a mission and on opposite sides of a conflict. They’re both in a very dangerous situation. This doesn’t stop Alan from taking risks to protect her or from Kirstie reaching out to him. The story has a lot of action and there’s plenty of conflict. I loved the historical setting of this story and the interleaving of the politics of the time.
This book can be read as a standalone even though it’s part of a series.
I was given an advanced reader’s copy in exchange for an honest review
The setup was very interesting and I certainly feel like I learned a lot about Scottish history, but the characters seemed a bit flat and that made it hard for me to get into the love story
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
💋💋💋
This is an awesome book .
What can I say about the main characters .
Alan is Scrumptious, he’s brave , thoughtful , loving and devoted.
Kirstie is strong , feisty, stubborn and in love for years with Alan .
Together the one thing that means more to them than each other is family and the Clan .
As relationships and emotions are stretched to breaking point is it possible these two will get to the end of the book unscathed .
Lori has written another hit , I wish I could give more than five stars it definitely deserves it .
A fantastic book that hooks you at page one and keeps you dangling right to the end .

I am reviewing this book as an ARC without compensation.
Kirstie and Alan make for a fiery couple. The story is filled with political and religious intrigue. Clans are fighting to make dynastic growth the old fashioned way through marriage alliances. Highland stories are never boring and this one certainly is not. It shows great promise for what will happen next perhaps to Finlay and Blair.
