Never Seduce a Scot (The Montgomerys and Armstrongs, #1) by Maya Banks
Never Seduce a Scot – Maya Banks

Synopsis:

Eveline Armstrong is fiercely loved and protected by her powerful clan, but outsiders consider her “touched.” Beautiful, fey, with a level, intent gaze, she doesn’t speak. No one, not even her family, knows that she cannot hear. Content with her life of seclusion, Eveline has taught herself to read lips and allows the outside world to view her as daft. But when an arranged marriage into a rival clan makes Graeme Montgomery her husband, Eveline accepts her duty—unprepared for the delights to come. Graeme is a rugged warrior with a voice so deep and powerful that his new bride can hear it, and hands and kisses so tender and skilled that he stirs her deepest passions.

Graeme is intrigued by the mysterious Eveline, whose silent lips are ripe with temptation and whose bright, intelligent eyes can see into his soul. As intimacy deepens, he learns her secret. But when clan rivalries and dark deeds threaten the wife he has only begun to cherish, the Scottish warrior will move heaven and earth to save the woman who has awakened his heart to the beautiful song of a rare and magical love.

Lauren | 1448 comments I've already read this book and Possession recently, so I won't be reading them this month. Both are very good books. I hope everybody enjoys them as much as I did!


Donna (Currently Busy) (shockerfan) | 22 comments Like Lauren, I've also read this book and enjoyed it.

Clarissa | 49 comments I really enjoyed this book, I haven't liked many Medieval settings much before, but I found this one not over the top. The character development and the love story was great, I liked the drama and struggles Eveline and Graeme went through and came out the other end. It was easy to read and relate to.

Merry  (jewelhound) | 866 comments I have this one on my list but am currently overloaded with books from Kindle Unlimited (it is my 90 day free trial) so will give this a try later.

Glad you enjoyed, Clarissa. Sadly I'm not going to get to it this month, but I will keep it in mind for a future read.

Laura (barkylee) | 2 comments Clarissa, I also haven’t always had the best luck with medievals or even Highlander romance either, but I really loved this one. Extremely well-paced romance!

Clarissa | 49 comments It was surprisingly good, I agree. The story moved well and I really enjoyed the character development as well as how the relationship unfolded.
