MY REVIEW:<\/strong><\/p>\n

RATING: 4.5 stars<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s been many years since I\u2019ve read a Harlequin. What I love about them is they are like a delightful confection, easily consumed in a sitting or two. With each read, there is an expectation built in of what it must deliver to the reader.<\/p>\n

The focal point of the story is the love story between Aidan and Catriona. He\u2019s a randy younger man who is driven by his need for conquest, and she\u2019s a loyal married woman in a loveless but safe marriage. Never has he wanted a woman like he wants her, and never has she had a man awaken the desire he has in her. At their core, they both discover their own moral ground and live by it\u2026 even when it means they might need to give each other up.<\/p>\n

Set in Highlands, the historical backdrop doesn\u2019t romanticize the mores or the role of woman in that time. The secondary characters are memorable and add texture to the story which follows these two on their rocky journey to true love.<\/p>\n

Enjoyable with the right level of tension and heat.<\/p>\n
