3 & 1/2 stars ..This novel started off so well , it had most of the qualities that I look for in most stories : historical , set in Scotland , the hero is a powerful warrior , and the heroine is petite and dark haired - I for one am affected by the physical description of the hero and heroine , f...
3.5 stars rounded up.This is my first read by this author and I'll definitely give her another go. I loved the hero. He was besotted from day one and not above rather ruthlessly manipulating events to force the heroine's hand in marriage, something I always fall for. Especially since he truly ...
the only thing that occupied my head when I read it is...God why they're so damn stubborn and selfish they didn't realize their surrounding...I kinda disappoint when Magnus only think about him and Helen and forget about his mission, at least, the other guardsmen when they distracted by their las...
No, it wasn't perfect (few things are), but I did enjoy it 5 stars worth. Definitely preferred this to the predecessor although I did enjoy that one as well. IMHO, the heroine in the first novel was nothing compared to this heroine.The odd thing is that this had a few elements that I'm not part...
J'adore cette auteure mais là je n'ai pas compris ! Le livre traîne en longueur, je me suis ennuyée et j'ai dû me forcer pour aller au bout du livre Je suis un peu entrée dans l'histoire sur les 100 dernières pages mais c'est tout ... Monica McCarty a écrit de très très bonnes romances des Highla...
I'm really sad about giving this book such a low rating. Ever since I read the synopsis, I was dying to get my hands on this book. Maybe my expectations were too high, but I was incredibly disappointed with this book. I have an intense dislike for books that have two romance stories going on at...
J'attendais l'histoire du Saint depuis le premier tome mais là je ne sais pas le résumé ne m'a pas plus j'ai eu un mal fou à m'y mettre Une fois la lecture commencée la plume magique de Mme McCarty a fait effetL'histoire est vive, il y a de l'action, de la passion, de la souffrance, de la culpabi...
Ugh! I've waited long enough for Robbie Boyd and it did not disappoint! Tough to like him at first since he's so crude but he eventually grew on me. HEH. And now as I wait for the continuation of The Guard with the upcoming hero as The Arrow, I'm constantly trying to look for other Highland stori...
I loved this one!!! OMG. The conflict was fantastic & for most if the book I found myself thinking "How the heck will they work this one out?" It was a toughie!!! I abso adore Rosalin. From the start her inner strength was fabulous & I love that she had the guts to stand up to her big tough guy. ...
DNFTSTFJFC... This book was annoying. I only got to page 184, and I'm surprised I gave it that long. Christina is needy and childlike... Not knowing when to stop talking or when to think before acting. And Tor? Typical highlander, kind of. He's stoic and thinks sometimes with heart, and other tim...
Wow...I really didn't like this book. The first part felt like a dry, boring history lesson about the wars in Scotland, then our characters meet and I'm still not interested. The attraction was solely based on lust, I didn't enjoy any scenes in this book, and I couldn't understand how these two ...
I really enjoyed this book. For whatever reason, I am always drawn the brutal and desperate history of the Highlanders, and read through McCarty's word, that are laced with historical facts, it's like a moth to the flame. Well rounded story, very well told. Classically romantic without being mawk...
3.5 starsI don't want to go into too much detail for my review like I have for other reviews I have done recently (I say that now until I get going), and just want to give my impressions and thoughts on the book in general. I have to say, as you can tell from the above rating, I didn't hate this ...
Jamie Campbell is a man caught between two worlds. He is a highlander by birth, but he is his cousin's (the King) enforcer bringing outlaw highlanders to justice. So he is caught between the scots and the english.When he goes to investigate clan Lamont, who is supposedly harboring an outlaw, he f...
I seriously think that this series is really different from Mrs. McCarty other series 'Highland Guard'...this book is full romance and oddly somehow I feel I like the 'Highland Guard' series better. I think Mrs. McCarty describe war better than romance...in my opinion. At first I kinda hate Lizzi...
Seriously, this is an absurd book. I've read Highland Warrior. There is no way in bloody hell that Jamie's sister would so quickly run away with Patrick. I didn't buy the story that she would leave with an outlaw Mcgregor who admittedly intended to kidnap her. And I don't believe Jamie would have...
This is the first book of Ms. McCarty’s that I have read. I think it will be the last.My biggest problem with the book is that nothing happens. The plot is nonexistent. For the first 300 pages or so we are in the heads of the hero and heroine. That is not a good place to be. They spend those 300 ...
