Historical Romance, 16th Century Scotland and Ireland
This is the 3rd in a series of interconnected romances. I have not read the others, but this worked fine as a stand-alone. There may have been some points that would have been more evident if I had read the others.
A solid reunion romance with the lovers getting back together after 7 years apart. The hero, Duncan, is a likeable guy, the heroine, Moira, less so. The grand misunderstanding fills most of the book. Moiras father married her off to an Irish chieftain while Duncan was off fighting in France. The father that doted on her so much and trusted her to help him with the clan, pretty much just gave her away and never had anyone check up on her. And then he died and no one else bothered to check on her either. (This is maybe one of the things I would understand if I had followed the series?) The root of the misunderstanding comes from the lies that her father told her, so I didnt find a lot of sympathy for Moira.
The supporting cast is great, especially the dog and the kids.
If youre a fan of Scottish historicals, give this series a try.
