A story of betrayal that led to love, and revenge that led to admiration and respect.
Fiona hates everything about Myles, his family, his background, and most importantly, his intention to be her husband. However, he’s not happy about the pre-birth arrangement either, but being the responsible clansman he is, he will enter the marriage with every intention of honoring what’s best for his family. Instead of pouting and protesting, he chooses to make the best of the situation, despite his new brides insistent reluctance.
For a moment, I didn’t really care about how they would settle their differences. I was somewhat detached from the characters. However, despite that, I wanted to keep reading. I wanted to know the truth about Fiona’s mother’s death. During the journey to discover the true murderer, I simply fell in love with the characters. Usually, I struggle to keep reading a book where I don’t immediately connect with the characters, but the subplot held on to me like a newborn to the nipple. It sucked me right in.
The author did a great job of keeping the story compelling and fresh. I applaud the writing itself. I even reread a couple of passages before I made it to the end.
I definitely recommend this book.
Rating system: Cups of coffee – the less the better
0: You won’t need any coffee to stay up for this one. It’s intriguing enough all on its own.
1: You’ll stay up late, but not all night. Brew one cup.
2: You’ll read as long as you’re not tired. If you are, two cups should do the trick.
3: I hope you got plenty of rest; you’ll need it, or at least 3 cups.
4: If the cable goes out, read the book. It’s better than nothing, I guess. Oh, don’t forget your brew!
5: Find anything else to do- it doesn’t matter what it is. Don’t waste your coffee. Too much caffeine is bad for you.
My rating: 1 cup of coffee
