Reader comments:
Extremely interesting book and well written - easy to follow, flowed smoothly (A.T., 3-7-98) I could not put it down. I sat on my Poppop's boat for five hours straight reading. I have never gotten so burnt in my life, But it was worth it. (K.B., 1-5-97) Romantic,exciting & funny! I enjoyed it from start to finish! (M.F., 1-4-97) I loved the charcters in this book almost as I loved Border Bride! (D.O., 10-4-96) I agree with all the other comments. I liked the Lady Mariam and was glad she was somewhat intelligent! (R.G., 8-28-96) I always look for romance novels set in Scotland, even though the history is somewhat idealized-it's escapism, of course. Although Duncan was "regimental" under his kilt (no undies), nowadays most men wear something. My husband found out how dangerous it was to go natural when drunk women would try to peek under his kilt! Of course, that was at Irish pubs. I'll be looking for more of Arnette Lamb's Scottish novels. (S.P., 7-30-96) This was a wonderful book. I now know what a Scotsman has under his kilt! (C.G., 6-3-96) Nicely written, involved story with very intelligent heroine and hero. What was nice is that the author didn't just tell you the heroine was smart, she showed you the heroine's gift for deductive reasoning through her actions. Terrific love story. (D.N-A., 3-16-96) Great romance with a touch of humor. Loved it! (K.A.S., 1-16-96) A great book, with an intelligent heroine. Good character development. The sexual interludes were quite erotic. (I.J.R., 12-3-95) One of my all time favorites (and I read several new ones a week!) I'll buy any new book by Arnette Lamb. (T.G., 12-2-95)
