review 1: This was a did not finish book for me. The heroine runs a newspaper and spends the whole book fighting for women's rights and clashing with the hero, who is the Lord Provost of Edinburgh.If I wanted to get a history lesson about the poor treatment of women, I'd read a history book. A historical romance is a fantasy. The constant "Women can't vote" "Women are their husband's property" "Women should be allowed in the private club to hear educational lectures" really irritated me. And the heroine kept spending the night at the hero's house and then saying, "Oh, my reputation." Dumb heroine. If you were really that worried, don't spend the night at the hero's house. I put the book down and didn't finish it.
review 2: To be honest I usually avoid historical fiction,
... more it has never been my thing but this book has been a pleasant surprise and I am glad I read it, plus it is set in the beautiful country of my birth Scotland in the historic city of Edinburgh, the year is 1872 and things are very different for women.Mairi Sinclair is our leading lady in this story, a very feisty but extremely loyal woman she has a wealth of compassion and does not let the male dominated world in which she lives in get in her way, arriving at a lecture she is disgusted to find out it is men only and as she leaves she comes across our leading man, Logan Harrison, the Lord Provost, a man who infuriates her.She is the the editor of the Edinburgh Gazette and in a male dominated profession she hides behind her brothers name to publish her work.As the Lord Provost, Logan has to lead a respectable life and the choice of his partner is something he needs to consider carefully and Mairi Sinclair certainly does not fit the bill or does she....This is a great story of two people, two total opposites Mairi is a true fiery Scottish lass and Logan is an ambitious politician but of course opposites attract and this pair have chemistry in spades.I don't want to give too much away as I want you to go out there and read it but even if you don't like historical romance you will like this, its such a good read and is also part of a series which includes The Devil of Clan Sinclair and the soon to be released Virgin of Clan Sinclair.Below you will find a great competition to win some goodies and also what happens when I am let loose on Polyvore with tartan in my mind!!Witch of Clan Sinclair is awarded 4 out of 5 less
