—“They chained me in the dark because I could not tell them of my commander’s orders.”
—She couldn’t understand why the MacEgans would do such a thing. It made no sense at all, for Raine had done nothing wrong.

This author has a kink for consent. She really enjoys harping on it. The heroes are quick to state & restate & restate ad nauseam how the heroines are safe from anything they don’t want to happen…which also means there’s nothing the least bit uncertain for the audience. It’s a veritable orgy of safety. 🙄

‘Not only was she the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen, but she had awakened a protective instinct w/in him. He wanted to guard her innocence, to see those sky blue eyes look upon him w/ gratefulness.

'Mercenary, some called him. A heartless murderer, the Irish would say. His soul was already damned, according to the priests, & he regretted nothing. As long as his sisters were alive & whole, none of it mattered.' ....Hot. I love a taciturn, battle-scarred warrior. :D Raine seems like a cross between Sandor Clegane & Gawain from KNIGHTFALL.

I'm craving a good medieval hqn. :/ Hopefully this one doesn't disappoint.
