That was a wild soap opera of a tale. Evie's sister was so bad it took away from the main characters' story. But yet, I was appalled at the punishment scene. Evie and Darien were thrown together by chance and bad behavior of others. They made the best of it initially, and then even thrived. But, wow, Emelia, the sister!

A highly entertaining Highland read! It's hard to imagine that Miss Le Veque hasn't ever written a "Scottish" novel. I find it fascinating that the dun Tarh's are rumored to be descendants of the Legio IX Hispana.. The characters are wonderful and I absolutely love Mabel! The plot was a wee bit predictable to me, but it didn't make it any less enjoyable... so much so I finished it in a day.

This was an excellent story, Evie and Darien is a true love story. Her evil sister almost ruined it all. There's danger, lies, deceit and a spoiled daughter, Evie's sister. Enjoy this book it is truly a great book. HEA.

I will admit, I am not normally one to pick up Medieval stories but this one tempted me and i am so very glad I chose it! I have read this author before and enjoyed her style of writing and this one does not disappoint . Evie and Darian are a powerful couple, and their love just flows off the page. How Emilia is written was fabulously dark and the twists and turns of her trajectory was very eye-opening. It makes one realize how truly BAD selfishness and greed really are. Darian’s parents are a joy and I loved their banter, as it reminds me of my own spouse. Her ability to lead with an iron fist was something to behold….used to call that a “healthy fear” of a parent .These characters are so very real and believable , that I felt like part of the group. A very well rounded story, with all the emotions put into play. Adored it!

I received this for free through NetGalley and these are my own views.

I really enjoyed this book. The characters were interesting and the story was engaging. I will have to check out the first book in the series.

Talk about PLOT TWISTS!!! I’ve been a fan of outlander for years and this book was right up my alley. The story was great and there were plot twists right and left, I couldn’t believe!
