So bittersweet! I've been following this series since it came started, waiting impatiently for each book every year. Now it's done... ahh I can't do the feels. But I loved every character and this series is just one of my favorites.

This was an astonishing conclusion to a beloved series. Honestly this was bittersweet. I loved the end but will miss this vibrant world.

As Monica McCarty's long running and popular Highland Guard series comes to its conclusion with book twelve, The Ghost, you cannot help but be awed by what a monumental achievement this author has accomplished. Every work in this series was complicated, detailed and impressive in its scope, The Ghost was no exception. With well developed characters all around Ms. McCarty takes her readers on an unforgettable farewell as Scotland gains it's independence and the warriors who helped facilitate it take their last bow. It makes sense that the most idealistic of the team Alex Seton is paired with the most determined of the team Joan Comyn as the two most enigmatic and misunderstood guard members secrets come to light as they surrender to their attraction. Equally devoted to their beliefs sparks fly as the hero and heroine battle inner conflicts and misconceptions. With the fabulous literary styling her readers have come to expect from Monica McCarty The Ghost completes her Highland Guard series on a bittersweet high note and confirms this series as one of the best to be found in Historical Romance.
