TO CATCH A HIGHLANDER by Karen Hawkins

This book comes after "To Scotland with Love", as I have mentioned in my last post, each book can be read independently, but I do not recommend it.

What would you have done if your father was given the task of selling some jewelry to fix the roof but comes home instead and have lost everything in a gamble.

If it was me I would have been furious but not Sophia MacFarlane.  She loved her father and when she learned who he lost the house too, she came up with a plan to win her house back, not fully understanding what really was at stake.

Lord Dougal MacLean, having won the deed to a house came to claim his prize when the beautiful that was described to him turned out to look like an unfinished dump. 

Unfortunately for them, but fortunately for him, Dougal overheard the plan that they had cooking for him and was able to take all that they threw at him and more.

Of course what she was fighting for was something that was most precious to her but what he was fighting for was for pure selfishness and pride.  I have to say, Dougal is my least favourite MacLean so far, at the beginning of the book, later down I started to like him though, but his way of thinking in the beginning was horrible.

Want to know what I am talking about, you have to read the book to find out.  Karen Hawkins have written another story that will steal your interest that is funny, sexy and fun.  I love the part where they were in the Library and the storm was raging outside and a storm was raging inside as well, if you know what I mean.

IT STARTED WITH A KISS by Marina Adair

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. With her resolve to experience life, Avery did the most logical thing and got a job as a guide in the local adventure lodge in her rustic Sierra Nevada Town. She was excited for her new job until reality slapped her in the face.  Instead of getting the training she needed in order to become a guide, she's stuck in the office, managing the business as best she can. What makes this situation worse is that the business is failing and the owner is so set in his ways that he refuses to change anything to fix it.  Frustrated with the way things were, hel...

MY CURVY VALENTINE by Sugar Jamison

This book is tied with Gentlemen Prefers Curves for the best book in this series.  Maggie is such a beautiful person, but she is also clueless. I could tell that she was has been married to the same guy for years before the both of them even knew it. Deciding to quit her high paying job as a bio-medical engineer and to follow her fashion dreams by working in a clothing store that caters to the full figured woman like herself. You might think that Maggie Calhoun must be out of her mind, especially since this all came about with her parents divorce. And you would be right, Maggie is out of her mind.  Out of her mind in bliss.  This is the first time in her life that she is doing something for herself, and she plans to enjoy it.  That is until her brother's best friend, Alex, moved his bakery beneath her apartment. Every morning she is awakened by sexual dreams that include whatever is being made in the bakery each morning.  Her dreams o...

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 ...
