I enjoyed this story very much and was moved to tears. However, the sex scenes were different from book one (which I give 5 stars) and more than I expected. Alaric binds Keeley without asking her about it, and although she mostly enjoys his dominance, he does hurt her before turning tender. It didn't ruin the book for me, because overall he is a great guy, I'm invested in the trilogy's story, and we get so many wonderful characters, but some sensitive readers might find it to be a turn off.

Oh Yes!!! What a great love story- with lots of steamy sex and delightful characters.

I can't wait for the next release in the series. The first one I gave 4 stars-really liked it. I gave this second book 5 stars (first time ever out of 150+ great romances I have read in the last year). Even though you know its a romance novel and you know how it should end... you aren't sure until the very end.

I absolutely loved this book and I highly recommend it! My very first Scottish, historical romance and my first read by Maya Banks. A wonderful story with so much passion. This book will captivate you and keep your interest until the very end. You will not want to put this book down and you will fall in love with all the characters! I found myself laughing and crying. Alaric and Keeley have so much love for one other and what they have to go through will certainly pull at your heartstrings! This is the second in the McCabe brother's trilogy and I cannot wait until I can read the other two.

This book is awesome! I think Maya Banks is great!! I'm laughing one minute then tears run down my face the next minute. Alaric is on his way to the McDonald clan when he is attacked. He manages to get on his horse even though his is injured very badly. Keeley is at her home when a man falls from his horse on her door step. She takes him into her home and tries to heal him. Keeley starts to care for him especially after he starts to call her "his angel". Soon though she finds out he is to wed another woman.

This is one of the fast read highlander books I read and enjoyed it so much at the same time. Some highlander books takes time to understand especially with the words that are used. But this one is great and I loved all the series for the McCabe and can't wait for the new series of Montgomery, etc.

Another excellent, excellent book! Loved it!! Amazing characters! Their story was so well told, and their feelings put into words so eloquently that my heart truly ached for them! I've read all of this series now, and this one was my favorite! They never tried to deny their feelings or love for each other. They just wanted to have as much of each other as they could before Alaric did his duty and married another. Definitely one for my keeper shelf! :)
