The Border Chronicles

review 1: Not your typical huistorical romance, it doesn't end once the hero and heroine decide they are in love with an epilogue about their first born. This book continues well into their happy marriage and the border wars between Scotland and England. This is not a period I am overly familar with and I appreciate the autthor sprinkling in the historical facts as needed and not turning it into a history book.
review 2: A lot more Scottish history than I thought it would have, based on the back cover. Still, I liked Maggie even though she was a bit much at times, but hey, she was only 17 or thereabouts at the beginning of the book. Fingal's return to Maggie, after losing his memory and nearly his life, was a bit too Odyssey-esque, complete with lots of sex with strang... moree women (in his case, two lusty sisters with whom he had to stay for a few days, and have sex with them, as price of his passage). Meanwhile, Maggie had to fend off unwanted suitors not unlike Penelope. Still, they did come together in the end, of course. I liked the cover on which the model portraying Maggie looked like Liv Tyler. less
