review 1: The storyline is great beautiful lady kidnapped by hot highlander from a hideous bridegroom. Emma is marrying to save her family home and fortune from ruin when she is kidnapped at the alter by Jamie the enemy of her bridegroom. This adventure takes us up to the highlands where the mutual attraction is undeniable. I felt that the author put a lot of useless information in and dragged the story out too long.
review 2: I have to admit, usually this is not a book I would have scooped up to read. So why did I really do so this time? To be brutally honest with you all, I picked it up because I was trying to complete a reading challenge of reading a book that had something in the title to imply color. Silly reason right? I am very glad I did pick it up though. ... moreIt may have been outside my normal reading comfort box, but it was a great joy to read and I just loved it. Who knew! Emma is such a headstrong woman and such a great character. When added with Jamie, another wonderful headstrong character there are simply fireworks all throughout the book! The plot was new to me as far as the more historical setting, but I found myself enjoying it. It was not written in such a way that it seemed to be taking place back in time, so much as just an easy book to read. The whole deal of a man kidnapping his family's rival's bride to be from their wedding and then falling for her in the meantime, may seem a bit cliche, but I assure you it is done in such a way that you can't help but get sucked into it all. All the details and wonder of why these men are at odds and why Emma would agree to marry the earl in the first place just keep you reading on, if for nothing else but to figure out the whys of the whole situation. Then you add in all the characters and it's magic. Emma and Jamie are the main characters that I came to just love. As they are developed in the book, you come to realize why they are the way they are. I started to feel connected to them and couldn't wait to see how the author drew up their lives and where they went. The writing of the book may have been a bit overwhelming to some because of the Scottish tint to it, but I rather liked it. There was just something about it that drew me in and made it all seem so romantic and entertaining. Maybe it was just the "accent" that I could hear in my head as I read the book, but I just loved it. The details, descriptions, and flow of this book were wonderful for me. Being a longer book, I was a bit worried that it would fizzle out for me or it would contain a lot of "fluff" in the pages, but it really didn't. I found it to be an easy read and one that I just couldn't put down. If you are into a bit of romance with suspense and drama, this is the book for you. I highly suggest giving it a try!5/5 Stars! less
