review 1: I love historical fiction, especially Scottish history. This is the first book I've read by Jeanette Baker. I felt like the story jumped around a little at first, but once i got hold of the characters and their place in the story, it got better for me. Although it ended up being a great story, I didn't feel connected to this story as I have from writers such as Susanna Kearsley or Ciji Ware. I will, however, read more from this author, as I do like her writing style.
review 2: First thoughts after finishing: "Is there anywhere on the internet that I could order a sexy powerful Scottish border lord????"I love books that blend the present day with the past and this author did an exceptional job of making that work. I felt that I was able to get to know all of the... more characters and make a connection with some. I am a sucker for historical fiction with a dash of romance thrown in and this one has both of those elements. I now feel the need to do a little bit of brushing up on James Stewart IV (King of Scotland) and Margaret Tudor (Daughter of King Henry of England). I love it when history becomes alive and captures my imagination!Recommend? I would recommend this one to my friends that enjoy historical romance. Especially stories that place in Scotland. I'm really thrilled that Sourcebooks reprinted Jeanette Baker's book because I would probably have never found this author on my own. I will definitely be adding her other works to my list of book that are worth reading. Overall, a very pleasant way to spend a few days!!Rating: 8/10 less
