MY LADY CAPTOR by Hannah Howell

Men are so foolish, always running off to war or starting a war for things that can easily be resolves by negotiations and not being greedy for what is not there’s. They have no consideration for the family, friends and responsibilities they leave behind just so they can go off and get themselves killed in the war.

This is my view as well as what Lady Sorcha Hay taught when she followed her foolish brother as well as her laird to the borderline to bring him back home. Instead she found out that her brother was taken for ransom and her people have no means of affording that since they barely have a penny to their name. In other to save her brother she kidnaps a wounded solider on the battle ground to demand a ransom to save her brother.

Sir Ruari Kerr was most grateful that he was rescued from impending doom even if it was from a women and gratitude soon turned in to outrage when he found out the their treachery. He vowed to get back at them as soon as he was away from their keep, but the passion that arises between them was a bit of a problem to get over, if they can get over it without internally combusting.

This story was boring in the beginning, all this talking about nonsense and whatnot but then it got even more interesting when Sir Ruari turned out to be a pompous arse and that Lady Socha should not have given him a second chance so fast, stupid ghost.

Well well well! What do we have here with this story? Is it a love story, is it a trade or is it MURDER! I'm kidding, I'm kidding, there's no murder here. Avery Adams wants adventure. She wants to push herself outside the norm and experience life instead of just existing. This came about when she survived a kidney transplant that saved her life, but it's also a ticking time bomb that can explode at any time.

THE HIGHLAND HENCHMAN by Amy Jarecki

After reading "The Angel and the Warrior" I really needed a book to pick me up and I am so glad that this book did just the trick. The only thing that irked me was that the heroine in this book upset me greatly. Needing royal assistance, Baron Ross issued a tournament to enchant the Highlanders to leave their land and come to the Lowlands to take part. What he really wanted was for the Highlanders to fight a dangerous battle that would get most of them killed. After the tournament the Highland Lairds choose instead to entrust their best warriors to stay and fight. This was not exactly what Baron Ross wanted but he knew that he could not change their mind so he accepted. Bran MacLeod was one of the warriors that was left behind, and even though he did not like it, he knew that he can never go against his Laird. It did not help matters that their was a dangerous instant attraction between him and the baron's last daughter. Bran knows that getting involved ...
