Best in series (so far).
Playful, delightful, strong characters (I've enjoyed the whole family), with the added bonus of fatherhood. I always seem to enjoy stories that include children in adult fiction...and this one touched me because I recognized a closeness between father & son that I also share. And I've not read another story that showed this unusual relationship (less common?) before.
You'll also find quite a bit of intrigue, especially during the 1st half. There is quite a bit of emotional content (which lends both a hint of reality & unreality). And it is not lacking on the romance or sensual aspects (erotica? these days the lines are so blurred, so be aware!).
Of course, revisiting with the previous characters is always a treat...and you'll be traipsing around several countries & visiting the Queen!
Definitely recommended for the not virtuous, historical romance lovers...but you'll enjoy it more if you read books 1&2.
Oh, and my only complaint...the cover. While handsome, it simply doesn't fit the description. That model is not "rugged" or a scarred, hulk of a man. And he certainly doesn't have the appropriate & natural hair of a Scot. Plus he looks so young, he hasn't started shaving yet - nothing like a nearly 40 yo father!
