review 1: "The Highlander's Lady" is the third book in The Stolen Bride's series by Eliza Knight. This is another rousing highlander romance and I ate it up. I am loving this series so much! I continued to love the love story in this book and all of the great historical detail.Unlike the first two books, the hero, Daniel, and heroine, Myra, are both Scottish. They understand that their world and their country is changing rapidly with all of the fighting. The stakes are high for both characters! This book had a little bit more action than the previous two books, which I really, really enjoyed. On top of that, you still get a really great love story and yes, all of the hotness of the previous books is most definitely still pleasant.I especially loved the historical detail in this book... more. I really loved seeing how brave Myra was when it came to protecting her family. It would have been so hard for so many to be as brave as she was. I really liked the appearance of the Bruce in this book. He is such a fascinating historical figure and it was awesome to see him brought to life in these pages.This series is such a treat!
review 2: A Scottish highland story steeped with historical details is such a nice delight and escape for any reader. This series is great because it's filled with adventure, romance, pain, and very treacherous endeavors with the backdrop of the Scottish people fighting for freedom from English aggression.This is the 3rd book in the series, and although the series is about fierce Highland warriors determined to defend their freedom from English oppression, they encounter "the woman" along the way, but remain the constant gentlemen. Laird Daniel Murray is quite the gentleman with Lady Myra throughout the book. There are a lot of details in this story, but the bottom line is that Lady Myra has been given the weighty task of warning "The Bruce" about enemies within, but she needs protection as the Scottish countryside is filled with danger. So, Laird Daniel comes across her in the forest and offers her protection in exchange for her commitment to marry him. That is the crazy part about these Highland warriors...they know immediately what they want and go for it...lol Well, of course she's going to agree, but you can't just fall in love over night. This love story unfolds with each experience and danger pulling Laird Daniel & Lady Myra closer to one another. I like how Daniel knew right away that he wanted her for his wife, but it takes him time to gain her affection and heart-felt commitment. Lady Myra does not trust easily & when you consider her background it's understandable. It takes her a long time to trust others including Daniel. She is such a feisty, brave and strong heroine. It seems like these books are all about the tension that builds up between the two lovers throughout their journey. Laird Daniel & Lady Myra don't consummate their love until very close to the end of the book. Their relationship is fun, sweet & all about finding a balance between two very strong characters and natural leaders. This is, overall, a very good story.I listened to the audiobook version and I really enjoyed Corrie James's narration. She did a great job with all of the male & female voices. Her timing was so good and she evoked just the right emotions in her inflections in voice. Nice listen! less
