I love a good Highlander romance and this one wasn't too bad. We have a laird who is about to marry a woman, who he does not love and has no plans to love. This laird meets a woman who is not his intended...in his bed. This leads to a slight change of plans. A different wife.

This new wife of his is going to send John crazy. Catherine's always getting herself caught up in danger and he is starting to stress about her. This new wife of his was supposed to be well behaved and quiet, who sat still and did what she's told...haha. The connection between John and Catherine doesn't take long to develop and there were some very sexy times between the couple.

The storyline is based around Catherine and her two sisters fleeing England after their father is accused and killed by the King for supposed treachery and disloyalty. There was also another side story that developed that was interesting.

I liked this story but it drags and I think the main problem was the lack of dialogue and too much inner monologue and description. Besides these problems the story was interesting. I bought this first in the series for less than $1.00 which was a good buy. I may be interested to go further on in the series at a later date.
