She swore to repay her debt to him, but she will do much more than that…

Aoide was born in a poor home, and had to fight for every happy moment so far. Yet, even the strongest of hearts can be swept away by a powerful tide; when she is embroiled in an attempt to rob a tax convoy, Aoide’s path crosses with that of the towering Captain Lachlan Dunne.

Known for his stoic demeanor and stony gaze, Lachlan Dunne scares women as much as he attracts them. His powerful gait and his predatory stare, only add to this Highlander’s mystery. Aoide has to convince this bear of a man that she was in the wrong place at the wrong time and she had nothing to do with the robbery.

To everyone’s surprise, the lass succeeds in calming down the brute, and Lachlan lets her go. But not long after that, Aoide finds her way back to his encampment. She believes that she owes Lachlan her life, and she refuses to leave his side until she has repaid that debt.

Lachlan decides to scare the girl off, but the results bring him into a position he has never been before… His bursts of rage indicate that a fiery passion was buried long ago, and Aoide wonders what might lie beneath his cold exterior. She knows that attempting to tame him might be dangerous, but unbeknownst to her, without his protection she will not leave to see another day.

Disappointing.

Sometimes self-publishing authors attract your attention. This was such a case. The blurb was fantastic. I love medieval, I love Scotland, love a grumpy hero and a determined heroine. Then I started reading. Endles pages of description, heroes thoughts. Heroines thoughts. Maybe 20 lines of dialogue in the first three chapters. It was so hard to read. Nothing jumped off the page.
In fact it reminded me of compositions I wrote in school. If you like a narrative with no dialogue then snap this book up. Otherwise keep scrolling through kindle unlimited.

⚔️⚔️ONE EXTRAORDINARY TREAT⚔️⚔️
Hopping horned-toads! Alisa delivers with this spectacularly composed piece of perfection, delving out some harsh facts, callous treatment and ruthless drive, keeping you riveted on a razors edge and frozen to your seat, blasting this baby to life brilliantly. Shenanigans and escapades descend in a flurry of mayhem and mishaps, baring the relentless struggles and soaring triumphs, exposing the vicious twists and treacherous turns, breaking boundaries and dissolving limitations, restrictions are amplified and exploited, showcasing the explosive ups and tortuous downs, propelling this jewel into a tailspin with an heart pounding realization, bursting this jewel to a whole new level. The attraction and chemistry collides with such force, unveiling explosive emotions and undeniable affections, drawing our characters closer, binding them to one another perfectly. The characters are authentic, realistic and genuine with depth and qualities that blend into amazing personalities. The scenes are strikingly sharp with abundant details and colorful descriptions so rich and lively, they blend and flow smoothly. Remarkable job Alisa, thanks for sharing this bad boy with us.

Lachlan was the captain of a large army of 600 men on a mission with a dozen soldiers to deliver the year’s treasure chest of collected taxes to Scone. They are attacked by a family of thieves along the way. All but four of the attackers are killed; one of those four is revealed to be female a few days later. This story of Lachlan and Aiode’s recognition of their love is beautiful, especially for Lachlan who has never, ever done anything but stoically follow the rules!

I really enjoy Alisa Adams’s books, this story is no exception. The characters were well described and the story itself was captivating and fast paced. Lachlan had such a private and strong personality , while Aoide was just trying to survive. She had no formal education but was intelligent none the less. Her mother had been accused of being a witch and Aoide was trying to keep that in the past.

Storytelling

The premise of the story was good. The author was telling the story and not the characters. I have read numerous books by the author but this one had me flipping pages to get to the next chapter.

Good romance

This is a story about two hearts in need of healing. Two souls lost to unfortunate circumstances and the love they found for Rach other.
