OrangeReviewStarWhen the widow Bibiana marries into the Fearsome MacLeod clan, in 1709, no one can see the danger she poses. No one, that is, except the beautiful Laire MacLeod. Huntsman Iain Lindsay warns Laire to flee, but then he's forced to hunt her to Edinburgh at the behest of his mistress Bibiana. Poison, thieves, disguises, and intrigue follow as Laire and Iain struggle to stay true to their loyalties while struggling against their growing attraction to each other.
VERDICT Cornwall (Beauty and the Highland Beast; When a Laird Finds a Lass) has done a remarkable job of fleshing out minor characters and creating an immersive story. The beats may be familiar, but the skillful storytelling draws readers in and holds some surprises.
