The Lady And The Laird
An Age-old Feud
Katlin Sinclair though she had inherited a dream...an ancient Scottish castle. But Innishffarin was a nightmare: empty larders, runaway livestock, absent servants, even a resident ghost. Worst of all was her neighbor, Laird Angus Wyndham. The Sinclairs and Wyndhams had feuded for generations, and Katlin and Angus continued the tradition...
When Angus met Katlin, she seemed fit only for London society. Yet, the courageous and headstrong woman soon had him in a quandary. Should he chase her from his family's rightful home -- or take her in his arms and never let her go?

Awful, really. I didn't want to drop it because I wanted to know what would happen to the ghost, but that was also a disappointment.
Warning: if you don't like paranormal in your historical books, there's a ghost here. A real one.

Eu adorei esse livrinho e a trama desenvolvida pela autora, apesar de ter achado que ela correu um pouco com o final, faltando um epílogo para complementar o enredo. Queria saber o que aconteceu com o Francis, isso ficou em aberto para mim, apesar que pode-se imaginar o que ocorreu. Apesar da mocinha ser teimosa, e até um pouco irritante, ao longo do livro ela demonstra sua força e sua personalidade forte, o que nos cativa. Já o mocinho? Angus, com seu estilo selvagem, é de tirar o fôlego de qualquer um...

Castles, Ghosts, Roaring Fires, Treasure, all contribute to the Scottish coziness of The Lady and the Laird.
The story was fun and breezy and as always i enjoy Maura Seger's adherence and defiance of romance novel tropes. Kaitlin and Angus are a memorable pair and I especially liked that the tension was kept at a minimum and I just got to enjoy the connections between the leads.
Charles was a good foppish villain as well who was a good juxtaposition for Angus.
