A great story

Loved reading this story, sometimes when reading a story you can figure out how it is going to go, but not this story. Just when I thought I had it figured out there would be a change in my thinking.

Taking Her Highland Estate

Irvine had to prove his place of becoming a Laird. As he also defended a village as his evil uncle wanted to kill. This book is intriguing with a happy ending.

Laird

What a great story about two families and their battles. Irvine and Bridget are strong characters with stories of love of clan and family. Very unusual for this time period the main characters all have relationships of love of famikh and each other.

The main female character was as head-strong as most highland women. This 1 has quite the twist!
