Product Description

With the Scottish War for Independence raging, a young laird heads to the Scottish/English border to avenge his father's brutal murder. After kidnapping his enemy's daughter, he whisks her away to his Highland castle, where they wage their own war - of strong wills and growing emotions - as strife intensifies between their countries. Seemingly doomed by their differences, can two people find happiness in each other's arms with such enormous odds stacked against them - or is theirs a love to last through the ages? "A winner in the 2004 Reader's and Bookseller's Best - Published Laurie's"

Customer Reviews

Every negative review on this book gets deleted. Don't be fooled. This book is horrible.
I've written over 150 reviews on various romance novels. I've never had my reviews removed for any other book. Each time I write a negative review on this book, someone complains to get it removed. I've seen every other negative review on this book removed, except one. I'm so mad that I was fooled into spending $17 on a book because of the all the glowing reviews. Readers have a right to read all of the reviews, not just the positive ones.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!

This book was terrible. It has tons of editing errors that are so bad, there are times when you can't understand what is happening. When you can understand, you wish you couldn't. The story is BORING and REPETATIVE. The characters are annoying. The heroine spends the entire book balling her eyes out. ("Tears streaming down her face", "Her tear streaked face", "choking on a sob", "swallowing a sob"....) She turns psycho and hides from her husband, because she thinks he is her dad who abused her as a child. The "hero" finally turns her over his knee, in front of everyone in the castle, and spanks her for misbehaving. This was his way of showing her that his discipline will not be as harsh as her dad's was. There was nothing "romantic" about this story.

The best historical romance I have read so far.
I couldn't believe this was the authors first book. From the first page until the last she had you hooked. I couldn't put the book down and was very sorry to see the story end.

The story takes place in Scotland during the time of William Wallace and before Culloden. It is filled with a rich sense of history. The pictures the author paints with her words about that time period makes you feel like you are there and living it with the characters.

The author did a wonderful job of bringing the characters to life. You felt their pain and their joys. She made you laugh with them and cry with them. I felt like the people in the story were my family.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in history or has a love for Scottish stories. Several of my friends have read my copy and feel the same way. I can not wait for her next book to come out. In fact after reading this book I am finding it very hard to get interested in any other book.

This book is a MUST read.

sigh, I want a Highlander in a kilt
I love Sue-Ellen Welfonder, one of the best Scottish Historical writers, but I was tickled to get this book as a gift for my birthday. Burroughs captured my attention and kept it from start to finish. This book has the style of old-fashioned saga historical romances. I hope this is a trend coming back. It's so hard to find these.

I am eager to read this author's other works.
