Add To


Highland war heroes rebuilding their lives grapple with ladies forging their own paths—who will win?

Regency Scotland comes alive in the vibrant and sexy new SCOTS OF HONOR series by USA TODAY bestselling author Eliza Knight. Scottish military heroes, who want nothing more than to lay low after the ravages of war in 19th century France, find their Highland homecomings vastly contradict their simple desires. Especially when they meet the feisty lasses who are tenacious enough to take them on, and show them just what they’ve been missing out of life. In battle they can’t be beaten, but in love, they all find the ultimate surrender.

Back from the war, Captain Euan Irvine of the Royal Regiment of Scotland, and heir to the Laird of Drum, learns of his grandfather’s death...and the will stipulating whichever grandson produces an heir first will inherit his title and properties. Except that this is a race of which Euan wants no part. Marriage and heir producing is better left to the gentleman in society. He is not distinguished, and he is far from proper. Euan’s a rough and tumble warrior still seething with bitterness from the horrors of war and the men he lost. Under pressure from his clan to save them from being led by his vile cousin, Euan reluctantly agrees to enter the marriage mart. Strategizing for the quickest win, Euan decides to hire a governess to help polish him for marriage, and for his new role as Laird.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Miss Bronwen Holmes is running for her life from people that her father owed money to.  She knows these men killed her parents and what they want from her is not going to happen if she can escape. 
Captain Euan Irving has been looking after his six sisters since he was fourteen years old. Now everything could be taken away from them by a clause in his grandfather's will. 
An exciting and action packed historical romance with fabulous characters.  Our heroine is a terrified young woman who has never had anyone but herself to rely on. Our hero is used to taking care of those he loves.  A wicked villain or some loving family members will decide what the outcome will be.  
This is part of a series but a stand alone story within it. 
Great fun.

When Lord Alec Hay, Earl of Errol and General of the Royal Regiment of Scotland and Earl of Errol returns from war, his mother is determined to see him wed. But he wants only to escape into the darkest room in his ruined castle and relive the harrowing moments in battle where he was unable to save his best friend...

She falls off her horse and nearly tumbles over a cliff, but is saved by a handsome, mysterious Highlander. With a twisted ankle, and the weather too dangerous to attempt riding, Giselle agrees to ride out the storm all night with the stranger...

⭐⭐⭐⭐



Lord Alec Hay ,Earl of Errol returned from the war badly scared. He is doing his best to ignore the looks he gets but his mother is insisting he find a bride. 
All he wants to to hide away on his Highland estate. 
After a few years managing to avoid all the men her mother has thrown in her path, Lady Giselle Hepburn is being pressured into marriage with a man she can't stand. She needs to get away.

This historical romance is a lot of fun.  Our characters are really just trying to live a simple life,  but society keeps interfering.  
This is the second book in the series,  but each book can easily be read on it's own.  They will tempt you to read rest.  
Good fun.

Highland war heroes rebuilding their lives grapple with ladies forging their own paths—who will win?

Especially when they meet the feisty lasses who are tenacious enough to take them on, and show them just what they’ve been missing out of life. In battle they can’t be beaten, but in love, they all find the ultimate surrender.

Scarred by the brutal ravages of war, Lorne Gordon, Duke of Sutherland and Colonel in the Royal Regiment of Scotland, returns to the Highlands to discover that his clan thought him long dead. His greedy half-brother has assumed his title, sold his family seat, and disappeared with the fortune. Once he engineers the return of his title, he must convince the new estate owner to reverse the wholly legal sale with the promise that his half-brother and the funds will be found. However, that goal seems impossible when Lorne discovers the buyer is none other than the sister of his ex-betrothed.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐



After years in the hands of the enemy, Lorne Gordon,  the Duke of Sutherland wants nothing more than to get home.   He was believed dead,  so it's understandable that things will be different when he gets there.  The shocks will keep coming almost all the way through the book. 
Jamie Andrewson is a very successful business woman,  with vengeance in mind. She has had years to achieve what she has now,  there's no reason to change her mind. 
This is a very amusing story that plays a lot with family dynamics. Our hero just wants peace and quiet.  That is so not happening.  
Really great fun.

You've Got Plaid (Prince Charlie's Angels #3) by Eliza Knight. Historical Romance Release & ARC Review.

Add To


This Highlander is determined to return the daughter of his enemy to the safety of her home, even if it means helping her...

Brogan Grant, a Jacobite soldier and bastard son of the Chief, fought savagely on the battlefield, and barely escaped capture. On the run for his life, Brogan comes across what he thinks is a spy—a very bonny lass disguised as a lad, who happens to be the daughter of his clan's enemy. He admires her bravery, but he knows what can happen to a woman alone in a war-ravaged land.

Lady Fiona MacBean is determined to do her part to ensure there is a Scottish king. Disguised as a healer, she delivers coded messages to rebels throughout the Highlands. There's only one thing impeding her mission—a striking Highlander who's determined to send her home.

Unfortunately, Fiona will not be deterred. Left with little choice, Brogan agrees to join her mission if she agrees to return home after. Now the two must work together and risk everything to save the life of Bonnie Prince Charlie himself. If only their hearts weren't at risk as well...

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Lady Fiona MacBean is a secret messenger for Bonnie Prince Charles.  She's very good at blending in with her surroundings,  but it is a very dangerous undertaking. 
Brogan Grant is a rebel soldier. He and the men he's traveling with have just escaped the carnage of the battlefield, and are on the run for their lives. 
With the dragoons hunting them all the last thing he needs is a woman to protect.  
This is an all action, historical romance filled with intrigue and danger. Both our lead characters are truly heroic and  believe whole heartedly in what they are doing.  
You might have read the previous books in the series and met our heroine's friends,  but you can easily read this on it's own.  Female heroines make for exciting and unusual stories. 
I loved it.

These Highland warriors are prepared to give up everything to fight for their country.

Annie MacPherson's world was torn apart when her family's castle was ravaged during the war. Determined to aid her countrymen, she braves the battlefield and finds Lieutenant Craig MacLean left for dead. Soon, her heart belongs to the fierce warrior.

As the English dragoons draw closer to Annie's makeshift hospital, Craig knows they have to escape together if they'll have any chance to survive. But when they come face-to-face with the enemy, and Craig is imprisoned, Annie will have to risk everything she has to save the man she can't live without.

History and adventure come to life in Eliza Knight's thrilling Scottish Highland romance. Annie is based loosely on Anne MacKay, Anne Leith and Lady Maxwell, who risked their lives to protect Jacobite soldiers by hiding them, healing their wounds, and aiding in their escape from enemy forces.
 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐



Annie Macpherson is a gifted healer who is very much in demand.  This story is set around the time of the battle of Culloden so there are very many wounded men for her to help.  Our heroine goes right to heart of the battlefield to search for her family.  
Graig MacLean has fought for the Bonnie Prince trying hard to rid Scotland of the hated English King's men.  It's heart breaking and extremely dangerous, even after the main battle has ended.  
A historical romance filled with courageous, strong and loving characters.  You will need tissues and there are several scary moments.  
A very exciting book.

The Highlander's Surrender (Stolen Bride #9) by Eliza Knight. Historical Romance Release & ARC Review.

Add To


Eliza Knight's bestselling Scottish historical romance series, The Stolen Bride Series, is back with another amazing tale of adventure, passion and love!

Ceana Montgomery had notions of marrying for love after her first disastrous marriage ended in widowhood. But now Robert the Bruce has ordered her to marry a stranger in order to secure a strong alliance to end a decades old feud. Already used as a pawn once in marriage, she is devastated that she will once more have to give up her happiness in order to please the edicts of men. And while the braw, warrior standing before her may incite feelings inside her she thought long since buried, love is a far cry from desire.

The rivalry between Brochan Lamont and his brother John began in the womb, and only grew worse from there. Pitted against each other in childhood, their father left them with a legacy that was a race to the finish—whoever had an heir first inherited the lands. The only problem is Brochan has given his loyalty to the Scots, and his brother to the English. In order to keep the lands and ships under Scottish control, Robert the Bruce demands Brochan marry to break the iron-clad treatise. His new bride harbors a fiery temperament that lures Brochan into stoking her passions instead of her ire.

Aligned to settle a dispute and strengthen the Scottish claims on the realm, Brochan and Ceana must work together to overcome the obstacles that bind them. But perhaps seeing their duties through does not have to be as painful as they both predicted. Is it possible that love can be forged from a union born in alliance? Maybe Fate knew all along just who was meant for each other...

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Ceana Montgomery managed to survive an abusive husband and is looking forward to marrying the man she loves.  Unfortunately Robert the Bruce has other ideas.  She is now forced to marry someone who just needs to breed an heir as quickly as possible.
Brochan Lamont and his twin brother have been locked in battle since before their first breaths.  That has not been helped by their father not naming his heir,  instead the first one to breed a legitimate heir gets both castles. 
The twins might look alike but they are totally different characters. 
Our heroine is going to have to face her deepest fears. 
This is a fascinating story mostly about a woman struggling to put the past behind her and find the strong woman inside . Will her new husband be the brute or the hero she needs.??
A very enjoyable read.

From the bestselling author of the Stolen Bride Series comes a brand new and exciting family saga! For fans of Scottish historical romance, the Sutherland Legacy propels you into the Highlands with tales of daring adventure, irresistible heroes and passion! 

When Liam Sutherland was a lad of fifteen summers, he saved a Sassenach lassie’s life, and secretly vowed to always keep her safe. As the prized warrior for his clan, and youngest son of the laird, his responsibilities at the castle continue to mount, and just when he’s about to forge a name for himself, he receives a mysterious missive that has the power to make him leave everything behind.

Cora Segrave, daughter of an English baron, owes her life to the Scot who saved her years ago during a border raid. When her family home is destroyed, and they are taken prisoner, there is only one man she knows can save her—the one man she’s never been able to forget.

Answering Cora’s plea for aid will jeopardize Liam’s reputation, and maybe even cause a rift with his family, but a vow is a vow, and he cannot turn his back on her—or his heart. The only choice he has is to save her before it’s too late, and pray his family and king will understand. In saving her, just maybe he’ll be able to save himself.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Sir Liam Sutherland has been sent by Robert the Bruce to capture a traitor and bring him to prison.  The borderlands he must travel are ones he has passed by before,  one time has always stayed in his mind. 
Lady Cora Segrave is hiding away in her father's castle.  The enemy has invaded, killed her father and imprisoned her mother.  She only has one hope,  that the messenger she sent out can reach help. 
The border between Scotland and England is a very dangerous place.  The politics of the time mean that unscrupulous men sometimes shift sides depending on what they can gain.  There is history between our main characters that nobody except them knows about. 
A very exciting and action packed story full of danger, and political intrigue. Death comes very close many times. 
I loved it.
