From the acclaimed author of "Dancing with a Rogue" comes a brand-new trilogy about three brothers bound by a dark legacy in the Scottish Highlands. In this enthralling novel, Rory Maclean risks it all by letting the enemy into his heart.
I've read enough good Historical romances and this one is a bummer. Great idea for a curse and mistaken identity but get to the people who are most important already! Backstory?…feelings?…Get the two main characters TOGETHER! Then let the story go on it's merry way.
Started out well with the tragedy of his mothers death but what is more over done as a woman who doesn't want to marry, instead would rather go to a convent. What could be done in a few short paragraph takes most of a chapter.
Bored…
I'm going to pull out some of my Johanna Linsey books and forget about this one.
Tina, I couldn't agree with you more. In my mind one of the biggest mistakes a romance writer can make is to have it take too long to get the main characters together. The story line is decent. Why didn't she start with a prolouge that had the kidnapping which surely is coming? The first time they see each other, etc., could be in the first paragraphs. Then, if she had to go back and give background, it could have been done in chapter 1 - although I think she belabored it. I won't be requesting this one from my library.
