review 1: 3 1/2 stars,This is not my typical read the closest I have gotten to anything like this book was a paranormal romance with the hero being a Scottish vampire who had flash backs when he was human hundreds of years back. But I really like Jenika Snow and something about this book caught my attention enough to read this it.When Bronson comes home from finally concurring and taking back the last that was stollen from his family and his father faught to the death for Bronson is ready for a wife but he wants a wife who knows what it is like to work and survive. Genevieve has always thought Bronson was handsome but being a farmers daughter she knew they would never happen till he announces his search for a wife. To please her father she agree to attend. Once Bronson lays eyes on... more Genevieve he knows she is just what he is looking for and instantly claims her and makes preparations for her to be his wife. What started out a fear soon turned to love for Genevieve and she and Bronson begin to make a life and plan for children, but the clan who took their land and his fathers life so many years ago wants it back and they want Bronson to suffer while they take it.While I really did like this book a lot of important parts to Genevieve and Bronson's story were completely missing. Because of the story line we don't get a real relationship before they are married and since that was part of the actual story it didn't bother me, but I really wanted more if them falling in love and them getting to know each other instead we are left having to just believe they fall in love because they tell each other that instead of reading about them falling in love and that hurt this story.I did find a lot of this story really interesting and it was very good but with a romance book I need just that, romance. In true Jenika Snow fashion the hero is amazing and possessive I loved Bronson from the beginning and Genevieve was another great heroine in the list that Mrs. Snow creates. Overall this was a good story that would have benefited from a few more pages to give us more time to watch both of them fall in live.
review 2: Enjoyable fantasy romance.Bronson Lyon is the warlord of Clan Lyon and seems to have spent most of his life fighting to reclaim his territory, now it's time to find a wife and have some sons.Genevieve is twenty and lives with her father in a small cottage on their farm, word has spread that Lord Lyon is looking for a wife, surprisingly he's looking for a peasant bride, he wants strong children and figures a woman used to hard work and hardship will give him what he needs.I enjoyed this book, as with all Jenika's books I would have liked more but it worked for me as a fantasy romance, personally I would have liked a little more just Bronson and Genevieve but the epilogue was wonderful.I have to admit that every time Bronson said 'fook' or 'fooking' I had to smile. less

This one is ragingly hot! Short, but concise. A barbaric tale of love and lust with a HEA.

It was an okay story but reading the abundance of brogue was tiring
