review 2: SECRETS to SEDUCING a SCOT by Michelle Marcos08/11 - St. Martin's Press - Mass Market Paperback, 352 pagesWe are given a name and presented with a title but do they forever brand us? During a tumultuous time in Scotland’s history while it strives for freedom from England there are still individuals trying to continue on with their lives. One of those is Serena Marsh who loves London’s life with its wonderful parties and the gossip that goes along with them. But Serena is drug away from all this when her father is appointed to the position of mediator between England and Scotland to try to avoid an uprising. He takes Serena with him to keep her safe, much to her displeasure and despite trying to talk him out of this move it still happens and Serena too quickly finds herself in Scotland, a country she considers primitive and guarded by a protector of all things. Malcolm Slayter is a man who has been cursed to live his life on the outside of any acknowledged clan due to decisions made by his family many years ago. He taught himself to survive disaster and serves now as the 1800’s version of an expert bounty hunter. Malcolm believes this to be an easy assignment with this slip of a woman to watch over, but learns quickly that the role of Serena’s protector is going to give him more pain than a hit to the head. She will not listen to his instructions, takes off as she pleases and will not sit still so that he can take care of her. When a wrong turn has Serena coming face-to-face with the force that will not be stopped she finally learns what the cost of this uprising is going to be, how critical her father is to finding a solution, and exactly how much Malcolm will do to keep her safe. While Serena knows how to control her independent ways she is not sure how to control her feelings toward Malcolm and if just one kiss from him is making her desire run rampant what will happen if she should touch him, should she dare do such a thing. Serena experiences complete fear when a life-altering event forces her to decide not when to act but how and her determination to correct this wrong pushes Malcolm to choose if is he on her side or not. Malcolm will fight for the woman he loves, the country that turned its back on him, the name he wants back and the family he lost found. These are tall orders indeed but Malcolm is not any man he is a Scot and they rule the alpha world of romance and Amen to that!This book is so much to take in because you have uprisings, romance, Scottish history and romance, wait I already said that, but it bears repeating for this book. When you read this book with the action, drama, and romance flowing so effortlessly you never feel confused or wondering what is going on. This is Michelle Marcos’s gift – to pull every element in and keep you on the edge or you chair without a care to what you should be doing besides reading right now. less
