GOODREADS

After being forced to dismantle his childhood home, Blair MacTierney, Earl of Brenmore, has vowed never to return to the Highlands. Yet with the passing of a distant relation, Blair is abruptly saddled with an ancient Scottish manor, a young ward, and an unconventional governess, Miss Amelia Harlow. Blair has every intention of avoiding entanglements, both with the estate he’s inherited, and with Amelia. But in a season of magic and miracles, it’s all too easy to fall in love.

That she is determined to melt...

With Blair’s plans to shutter the manor, Amelia is in danger of losing not only her position as governess, but her newfound home. To prove the estate is worth saving—and remind Blair of the cozy comforts and heartwarming joys of a Scottish Christmas—she launches a campaign of gingerbread, boughs of holly, and long evenings before the fire. But an unexpected kiss beneath the mistletoe may sweep them both up in a Yuletide romance neither had planned. Can Amelia remind Blair of the true spirit of the season, and of the Highlands, before it’s too late?

This low-heat (kisses only) Victorian historical romance is part of the Highland Christmas series, but it can be enjoyed as a stand-alone story any time of the year.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Blair MacTierney , Earl of Brenmore worked with his father to try and save his own estate in the Highlands from the necessary clearances but failed.  It devastated him to watch his people suffer. Now he has to return to the Highlands because he has been made guardian to a young heiress and her land.  He is not going to enjoy doing the same again.  

Miss Amelia Harlow loves her work.  She is governess to a bright young girl and helps the children of the crofters with a little education. This could all change very soon.  

This is a sweet historical romance with it's characters hoping for a Christmas miracle. Our hero really doesn't want to be the bad guy and our heroine will try to sweeten him up.  Maybe it's the Christmas spirit that will save the day.  

Good fun.

When love collides with duty, only the bold will survive...

Gregor "the Black" MacLeod is on a mission. He has been tasked with raising an army to oust the Pretender King who usurped Scotland's throne. But when he is met with naught but refusals, he must turn to his only asset—his brute strength. He spreads a wager through the Highlands—any man he defeats in single combat must pledge to stand against the Pretender. But when a bonny lass turns his challenge against him, he finds himself indebted to her service. Gregor intends to see his obligation through as swiftly as possible, but his heart may have other plans...

Birdie Morgan is in search of help. With her clan battered by raids from a neighboring enemy, she needs the strongest warrior in the Highlands to protect her people. When she brings the Black MacLeod to his knees—literally—she binds his strength and skill to her cause. But drawing Gregor close may have unexpected consequences. She isn't supposed to care for the fierce, commanding Highlander, yet a breathtaking passion ignites between them, endangering the very peace she is fighting for. Can they deny their desire for the sake of the country, or will their love destroy everything they've built?

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Gregor Macleod is fighting his way to raising an army.  He and three others escaped the hangman and vowed to help put the true King on the throne of Scotland.  If brute strength is the best way to persuade men to join him,  that's what he will use.  That is until he gets brought to his knees in one match.

Birdie Morgan has been trying her best to help her father protect the Clan from their neighbours,  but she needs extra help.  The nearby warrior games looks like a good place to find it.  Our heroine is an intelligent and brave young woman with a lot of responsibility on her shoulders. 

This is a four part series but each book can be read on it's own.  Lots of excitement and fun.  Not everything is as it seems . The fabulous characters will keep you enjoying every page.

When love collides with vengeance, only the strong will survive...

Scotland's throne has been stolen by a Pretender King who means to crush all those who oppose him. Four Highlanders refuse to yield. Hell-bent on revenge, they vow to destroy the Pretender and restore Scotland to its rightful King.

Laird Domnall MacAyre is out for blood. He bears a personal vendetta against the murderous traitor who helped the Pretender ascend. But when he tracks the traitor to a remote island keep, he finds the man's sister in his stead. The lass makes Domnall's retribution all the sweeter—in kidnapping her, he can twist the knife even deeper into his enemy's heart. Yet as a passionate bond grows between them, it is Domnall's heart in danger of ruination.

Lady Ailsa Murray barely knows her brother, yet he is her only remaining family, and the bonds of blood are not easily broken. So when she is taken by a Highlander dead-set on revenge, she makes a silent pledge to do anything it takes to thwart him. But when it comes to her captor, enemies and lovers are but two edges of the same blade. Will she have the courage to stand against Domnall, or will her heart succumb before she can alter the course of both their fates?

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Laird Domnall MacAyre is a wanted man with one thing on his mind,  revenge.  The traitor who cost many lives must pay with his.

Lady Ailsa Murray gets a rude awakening to who her brother really is.  Can she stop the man who only has vengeance on his mind from killing him.  

This is an action packed story that has a lightning fast start and keeps going that way. There is a lot of adventure along the way. The characters are great. I especially loved the incredible horse.  He is as much the hero as the Laird. 

This is the first in the series although each book can be read on it's own I will definitely be reading all of them. 

I loved every page.

How To Wed A Wild Lass: A Medieval Scottish Duet by Kathryn Le Veque & Emma Prince. Historical Romance Release & ARC Review.

Add To

GOODREADS

It’s a wild adventure on the border between Scotland and England as twin brothers search for the perfect bride… and end up finding perfect mayhem, madness, and seduction instead! 

Falcon de la Haye was born to be the Earl of Drumburgh. There’s only one problem—so was his twin brother, River. A midwife’s mix-up at their birth has left their clan’s leadership in question. Their father has the perfect solution: whichever of his wayward sons can find a bride first shall be named the next Earl.

But brides don’t come fast… or easily, as Falcon and River will soon discover…


The Jewel’s Embrace by Kathryn Le Veque

River de la Haye is determined to be the next Earl of Drumburgh. Frustrated, and ambitious, River abducts his own uncle because the man has heard of women greatly in need of husbands and he needs the man’s guidance to find these legendary – and desperate – females.

But the predator is about to become the prey.

In the remote borders between Scotland and England, a widow and her three daughters live. Having hardly seen men in their lifetimes, the women capture River when he comes calling. Three big, tough, and strong women hold him captive, demanding that he choose one of them to wed, and River has no desire to pick any one of them. As desperate as he is, he’s not that desperate. But when the youngest daughter, Emerald, finally makes herself known, River realizes he has indeed found his bride… if they can both manage to survive the jealousy of her sisters.

It’s a rollicking adventure in the remote borderlands!


The Siren’s Kiss by Emma Prince

Falcon de la Haye takes to the seas, hell-bent on beating his brother to England in search of a bonny and biddable bride. But fate has other plans. A devastating storm leaves Falcon stranded on a remote island under the care of a mysterious healer.

With an iron will to match Falcon’s, Maerwynn insists on treating him before he sets out once more. But when duty calls, can Falcon leave her behind, or will he succumb to his siren’s kiss?

Is passion stronger than duty?


Don't miss these bodacious border romances!

The Jewels Embrace.

By Kathryn le Veque,

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  

River de la Haye is one of twins.  They have no idea which one was born first so to settle the issue of which will inherit the Earldom their father has set them a contest.  Whoever marries first gets everything.  The brothers love each other but really enjoy competing against each other. 
I'm not going to tell you anything about Emerald because that will spoil a surprise in the book. 
This is so much fun.  Our hero thinks he has the perfect idea.  Oh boy!  is he wrong.  I absolutely love all the characters,  even the sisters.  Although it's only a short story it's still well worth the five stars. 

****************************

The Siren's Kiss.

By Emma Prince.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Falcon de la Haye is one of twins who has to find a wife before his brother to inherit the Earldom.
He decides to go by sea to Carlisle but that turns out to be a bad idea. 
He ends up on a tiny island with only one inhabitant. 
Maerwynn is a healer for a small village but she lives alone on the island just off shore since the death of her grandmother.
Not everyone is as thankful to this selfless healer as our hero,  and even he really doesn't want to be there.  His impatience to win his inheritance and her determination that he not move until she says so cause some upheaval for them both. 
A very entertaing story with wonderful characters. 

****************************

Both of the twins will learn what is most important in life. Which one will gain the Earldom? 
You will definitely have a good time finding out. 
Great fun.

Although Niall kindles a surprising heat within her, Mairin has sworn to hate the English until the day she dies. When she is faced with a chance at personal vengeance, can she trust in her strength, even if it means ignoring what’s in her heart?

Niall Beaumore fears this mission will be his undoing. After six long years in the Bruce’s Corps, this is his best chance to show how deep his allegiance to Scotland runs. Yet being paired with Mairin is far more dangerous than anything he’s faced before. From the moment he laid eyes on her, Niall has been captivated by the fire behind Mairin’s dove-gray gaze. After failing to protect those he cares about once before, he vows never to let Mairin come to harm. But when duty clashes with desire, they'll both be forced to choose between an unexpected love and the very fate of Scotland's freedom.

A dangerous mission. A deadly conspiracy. A daring love.

Jerome Munro has been battling a shameful truth all his life—he is the son of a traitor. So when Robert the Bruce orders him to deliver a bold declaration asserting Scotland’s independence, Jerome knows it’s his best chance to prove his allegiance. When he travels to the Borderlands to gather support for the King, he finds himself entranced by a copper-haired English lass whose determination to serve the Bruce kindles an unexpected attraction. Fearing his desire for Elaine will disrupt his assignment, Jerome fights against the heat between them, but when fate throws them together on a dangerous mission, he must choose between love and loyalty.

Elaine longs for much more than the sheltered life of an English lady. The darkly handsome Highland warrior who arrives at her Borderland home provides the perfect opportunity for her to show that she’s more than a silly, spoiled girl. She convinces Jerome to let her return to the Bruce’s court with him, but when she accidentally uncovers a plot against the King, she realizes she and Jerome are the only ones who can save Scotland’s hard-earned freedom. As the threat spirals out of control, can they unravel the mystery and protect their growing love?

Jerome Monroe has been travelling all over Scotland getting seals from the clan leaders for Robert the Bruce.  The self proclaimed King wants to prove to the Pope that all of Scotland is behind him in wanting to keep them from under the heel of of the English throne.

All of Elaine's family have earned the honours to be bestowed on them by Robert the Bruce, except her.  She is always treated as a vulnerable young miss.  She knows she is just as strong as the rest. 
This is an exciting journey into  the politics of the era. Lots of intrigue and danger surrounds our characters.  Our heroine will get much more excitement than she could have possibly hoped for.  Our hero has to have it proven to him that he is judged for his own actions,  not his father's.
