Well written Medieval Romance with plenty of action, romance and passion. The cast of characters are believable, engaging and interesting. This story grabbed me from the beginning to end, and pulled at my heart strings. Fast paced with twists and turns, danger, and finding a HEA. The plot was intriguing, and captivating. I enjoy Ms.McCollum's writing style, her eye for details, her historical reference and her characterizations. A must read!! Can be read as a stand alone. Heart pounding romance. Another hit by this author! Rating: 4.5 Heat rating: Mild Reviewed by: AprilR Vengeance with a twist. Scottish Highlands 1523. Mairi Maclean knew that marriages were clan alliances, no matter that her first marriage went badly. Now widowed, she's again decided to marry for clan. Just before her wedding she learned that her fiancé intended to send a handsome friend to kiss her. If she enjoyed the kiss she might break off the wedding. Not that Mairi was going to do that! As she sad though, “Drunken plans should not be made the night before weddings!” But did her fiancé have to send someone so handsome? When Mairi kissed the stranger she almost swooned. Still, the wedding would continue Mairi decided even as the stranger was leading her out ... and away, wait a minute, to where? Oops drunken plans certainly played into the hands of Alec MacNeil! Mairi found herself captive to Alec, clan chief known as The Wolf of Kisimul Castle! Alec has decided to take vengeance against those who murdered his wife and Mairi was the widow of his enemy! The pages devoted to Mairi being held captive are hilarious. I would give the book five stars just for those pages of mischief. The relationship with Alec's children, the transition unbeknownst to him of dank dungeon to something other, is brilliant. Mairi and the children become a formidable team that it takes Alec some time to become aware of. I loved this story. Marie is a treat, feisty and full of life despite the shadow of fear that hung over her from her treatment at the hands of her former husband and his family. Alec is a man of honor, trying to keep his clan and family together, and yet so young in understanding relationships, hampered as he is by his seemingly lacklustre upbringing. All the women in his life leave the castle in someway, and yet he remains to carry on a tradition. Neither of them dreamed where things would lead. This definitely is the highlight of the series, humorous and heartfelt. A NetGalley ARC The Wolf of Kisimul Castle by Heather McCollum Highland Isles Series #3 Another stellar story from Heather McCollum! I loved Mairie and Alec and the story of their wooing. That first scene, the kiss, the kidnapping and along the way saving a few dogs…all in the name of revenge – a bride for a bride – right – that is what Alec thinks as he kidnaps Mairie and steals her away on her wedding day taking her to Kisimul Castle with plans to take her as his wife. The introduction was superb. Meeting Alec’s friends, family and children a delight and the interaction Mairie has with each person she meets always entertaining. Alec and Mairie do eventually begin to like one another and their relationship heats up but with her family looking for her, a baddie on the prowl, intrigue and an impostor creating trouble it is not easy sailing for either hero or heroine. What was once considered cursed by some is found to be the heart of Kisimul by another and to that person it becomes a haven rather than a prison. With the love Alec and Mairie feel for one another only good things are foreseen for them, Alec’s son and daughter and the MacNeil Clan. Thank you to NetGalley and Entangled Publishing for the ARC – This is my honest review. 5 Stars inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

Mairi Maclean is kidnapped on her wedding day by the enemy of her dead husband. Taken north to the water-surrounded Kisimul Castle, she is held captive in the name of retribution. But The Wolf of Kisimul Castle soon learns Mairi is not a docile pawn in this game of war between neighboring Scots. Nor will she be frightened into walking down the aisle to wed the fierce Highland chief. Alec MacNeil is set on revenge. When he finds his enemy dead, he takes his wife to replace the one that was murdered. An eye for an eye. A bride for a bride. But Mairi is more tiger than kitten and refuses to bend to his will. Set stubbornly against one another, the passion that flares between them threatens to tear Alec's strategy to shreds. Contains mature themes. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |

The children are really funny along with a strong heroine and a surly hero whose friends make constant jibes at.
Very entertaining. ( )
