Trust in each other's strengths
Strong characters
Enjoyed this story. Strong characters, passion, betrayal, steamy passages. It has all the elements!
From Beginnig to End
This is a delightful read from the first dance and almost kiss to the second wedding and molten passion for these two frenemies turned lovers, marriage partners, and leaders. Their personalities are so lovable, especially because their roles are reversed from the traditional. She is feisty, bellicose, and stubborn while he is thoughtful, kindhearted, and loyal. Shona Thompson spins a grand tale across the lush landscape of the Scottish highlands as clans struggle to forge covenants to protect themselves from each other and the English. I withheld the fifth star only because there are a few edits such as repetition of text and misnomers that need to be completed before final publication.
