I enjoy Scottish history and one way to enjoy it more is some fiction along with the facts. This author makes reading a very enjoyable ride with history thrown in with the romance. It is nice to read a romance that the characters are not jumping into bed on every other page.Each of the three books of the Highland Guard have left me wanting to read the next and then the next. Don't you wish that your favorite authors could write as fast as you can read?
This is the second time I've read this book. I wanted to reread it since I am reading the whole series now. The first go around a couple of years ago, I gave this book 5 out of 5 stars. This go around I give it 4 stars. Not sure why. It just didn't hold my attention as well as I remembered. And it took FOREVER for the hero to realize he was in love with the heroine. I was thinking, WTF? C'mon! Really?
And the story this go around was sooooo slow. I had to even put the book down a couple of days and then get back 'into' it again. But with all that said, the plot is great. Monica McCarty knows how to tell a story. There's plenty of action, lots of Highlanders, and then there are the main characters who *finally* fall in love. The secondary characters were pretty good as well.
I'm on to the next in the series. I love any book with William Wallace in it. Not to mention, the next books cover is swoon worthy. YUM.
