This is the fourth book in the Reimburse of the Highlanders agree. If you haven't read the ancient books in the agree, never fear. This one can be read by itself and I don't ponder you'll feel complete.
Connor Gallach is an completely man who loves his band. As a daughter his life was inverted by what happened together with his parents and as we all come to get, the deeds in our pasts can sometimes influence us and touch us into the people we become. Such is the shell with Connor. He tries to do right by all and subsequent to those a little him get to come to get him he tends to gain their loyalty.

And accomplice, maybe finer than one, is trying to kill him. For accomplice is not happy with him being the chieftain.
In some ways the book reminds me of Taylor Swift's song, "You Belong Along with Me. "A few of the lyrics just seem to fit the story in good health,
"'Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you?"
"Been impart all listed, so why can't you see?"You belong with me"
"Type by and waiting at your back open"All this time, how can you not know?"Infant, you belong with me, you belong with me"
"You belong with me"Be the owner of you ever impersonation just maybe"You belong with me?"You belong with me'"
All-inclusive, I gave this one 5 OUT OF 5 ROSES. I absolutely established the story and loved the characters. A nice process of expectation, romance and have fun. I enjoyed adherence Connor finally symbol the woman who had been submit all along Ilysa. I loved have fun twisted by accomplice longing for to kill Connor and his longing for to do right by his band. I enjoyed the inner stand-up fight he suffered at not wishing to be like his get going. To the same extent he never seemed to infer was that the mere fact that he flustered about it, proved he wasn't. Additionally, I absolutely loved the thread at the end which I had an hint about, but enjoyed just the precise. On the Lisarenee Romance Rating Carefully selected, this one gets a FAN rating--the high temperature in the room seems to display thoughtlessly non-operational up a couple of degrees and a fan would be nice. A improve story that I gobbled up in one gulp. Mallory knows how to do romance right. Be the owner of I mentioned I loved it? *grin*
