I really enjoyed this book. I loved Cat and Bear - they are perfect for each other!

Cat is on the run, at first the reader thinks the reason she is hiding is for her sister Elizabeth's benefit, which is true - but it's not the entire story. Bear meets the sisters when he follows Cat back to the ruined Abbey, after she beats him to the deer he had been tracking.

He is immediately intrigued by Cat and strong arms his way into her life. Cat is taken by the big brawn highlander and even as she repeatedly tells him to leave - is glad he keeps coming back.

These two have a very special relationship and I didn't doubt their love or commitment to each other for a minute.

This book was a page turner, twists and turns in the story seem destined to keep our lovers apart or exiled. I was both anxious to find out what happens and yet dreading the end of the story.

The reason I gave the book 4 stars instead of 5 was twofold- one it ends too abruptly for my taste, there was such a build up to the ending that when it was finally resolved it was anticlimactic and two no epilogue - this is the end of the series, I have been waiting for this book since I finished the first book and I didn't even get to see them married! It was disappointing.

The writing was wonderful, the plot flowed well (until the rush to the finish), the love scenes were on the mild side, but very well done and touching, and we get to see the other siblings living their HEAs. All in all, this was a very good book and I would recommend it.

I always enjoy Enoch's historical fiction, and this was no exception. I enjoyed reading the story of Munro "Bear" and Catriona. This one had great characters, plenty of action, and a fast moving storyline. I loved the Scottish setting and thought that this book fit in well with the rest of the series and made a great addition.

This was a sweet read.

Hellcat Cat is in mama bear mode, ironically, fiercely protecting her younger sister from all-comers while they hide out in an abandoned Abbey (which just happens to be on Bear Munro's land). She's fit for the task too, having been raised a tomboy, but something about Bear allows her to show her softer side...eventually.

I love any hero called Bear, it seems. Or heroes that turn into bears, even. The idea of a big braw man that's as gentle as can be - unless you cross him! - is just appealing to me. And it took Bear's calm, gentleness to tame Cat's frantic fight or flight instincts; to help her trust.

As usual with all Scottish romances, I love the brogue (although I'm glad I never have to read it aloud) and the dialogue here was particularly sweet. The HEA was cute as a button, too.

A fun, quick read - 3 stars
