New York Times best-selling author Hannah Howell breathes life into the enchanting beauty of the Scottish Highlands in this epic romance between a strong-willed captor and the striking young woman he both confines and protects....

The windswept Scottish Highlands hold great beauty, but also great danger. So when Aimil Mengue is abducted by a feuding clan, she is right to fear for her life - and her virtue. For Aimil's keeper is the infamous warrior Parlan MacGuin. Aimil sets out to hate him, but Parlan is more honorable - and infinitely more alluring - than expected. Though betrothed to another, Aimil cannot deny her startling desire for the man who holds her captive....

Parlan MacGuin knows well his reputation as a fierce warrior; he uses it to claim land and lovers. But beautiful Aimil is a different type of conquest. Now Parlan feels an unfamiliar longing for the woman he keeps at ransom as their forbidden passion threatens to spark an unstoppable blood feud - or forever fill their hearts....

Contains mature themes.

I know the book is set in the 1500’s but it really made me sick all the talk about rape and that it wasn’t the big of a deal, yes the lead male character was against it but apparently his brother before having a change of heart use to enjoy taking what a woman didn’t want to give & even hit them. Yuck!

The lead characters were good the bad guy was definitely a well hated character who deserved his end. Over all though the book could’ve been 1/2 the length.

A little to long but a good enough love story

Too long. Not enough detail to characters. Best way art was birth of baby and death of Rory

Dragged on too long

Nope not romantic at all. Even if the author states that in this era men could cheat, I don’t believe that human nature would allow it as much as this book tries to say. The church, God fearing souls and the emotion of human love they just wouldn’t see it as normal, not like the author keeps trying to shove down our throats. Plus the heroine is the only one that gives and gives and gives while the hero continues to take and take while gives little other than “I’ll try and be faithful, but men are weak” and the heroine accepts that as some big promise. Puke. The ending was redundant and drawn out way too often and again and again.

Good but not very romantic.
