Morrigan and Aidan meet at the beginning of the beginning of the book when Aidan stops Morrigan from murdering a witness he needs for his upcoming trial. The man is a traitor to Scotland and also Morrigan’s uncle. Aidan recognizes Morrigan when they meet later, but after talking with her decides not to tell others how he knows her. Throughout the book they grow close, but Morrigan has to overcome the fear of her past and the exposure of her past to be able to enter their relationship fully.

I am coming to this book without having read the others in the series. At times, I was confused and not as invested in the characters as I might have been if I had read the whole series. I loved how strong they female characters were and that the men in the book allowed them the space they needed (rightfully so). I felt like this book was heavy in plot and light in romance. That being said, the story itself was good, but I wish we would have had more moments between Morrigan and Aidan. If so, I would have bought into their love story a little more.

Fast paced, exciting, filled with adventure story. It draws you in and keeps you turning pages.
I can't wait for another book from May.

Aidan is just trying to protect a court witness when he stops a would-be assailant in an alley. To his surprise, the attacker is a woman. An intriguing, beautiful young woman. Morrigan has her own reasons for seeking justice, and she’s not about to tell a stranger about them, no matter how handsome and understanding the barrister is.

Once again, this was a lot of historical fiction and a little romance. But I enjoyed the story and the conclusion of this Highland trilogy.

I always enjoy it when an author takes some true historical facts and weave their own story around it! I love nothing better than to research those true facts afterwards and learn even more about history, my favourite subject:) This was a wonderful story to read and the author knows how to keep your attention from start to finish.

Morrigan (love that name!!) is quite the fierce warrior and wants nothing but revenge for what was done to her and her family in the past. Aiden is a barrister who is looking at getting into politics and when they meet, sparks fly....as well as fists! I don't think I've ever read about such a first meeting! lol The story takes place during the era when England has a hold of Scotland and the fight is on for their freedom, as well as peace. You will encounter corrupt government, danger, blackmail, backstabbing, and you will also encounter passion, love, loyalty and redemption.

I received an ARC of this book via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Well it started a wee bit slow. Morrigan was delightful and strong and made me keep reading. There are great moments, times when I was worried about our hero Aiden, moments when I did not think they could get their HEA...but a great author can pull it all together...and she did.

This is a voluntary review of an advanced copy.

I had finished reading the two previous books in this series so was excited that the final book was here as I wanted to know how they were going to resolve the growing conflict between England and Scotland as well as see Morrigan's story.

I don't think that I have every read a book where the two main characters beat each other up first! There were times that I wondered how they were ever going to get their HEA, but their attraction kept growing and they did get there.

Lots of action, secrets revealed, and drama keep you reading on as it is hard to put the book down! I liked that there was some historical parts woven in to the story but not too much. This book was a great wrap up of all three couples.

Thank you netgalley for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Unfortunately I was not particularly taken with this Highland romance. The plot and time periods were difficult to follow and the characters bland.

A slow burn at first but built up to be pretty, uh, spicy 3.5 rounded up
