Blurb

New York Times bestselling author Lynsay Sands returns to the Highlands of Scotland in her hottest new historical romance yet!

Highlander Campbell Sinclair is no stranger to battle, so when he sees a lad attacked by bandits, he jumps into the fray. He didn't count on being stabbed. Grateful to the boy for nursing him back to health, Cam offers to accompany Jo safely to his destination. But when he accidentally comes across the lad bathing in the river, Cam discovers that Jo is actually Joan . . . with the most sinful of curves.

Joan promised her mother that she would deliver a scroll to the clan MacKay. But traveling alone is dangerous, even disguised as a boy. When a Scottish warrior lends his aid, she is more than relieved . . . until he surprises her with lingering kisses and caresses that prove her disguise hasn't fooled him. As their passion ignites, will the secrets of the scroll force a wedding . . . and lead to a love she's never known?

My Review

Joan is on a mission to carry out her mother's last wish. She is traveling alone to Scotland to deliver a message to someone. She doesn't know what it is about only that she has to do it. She is attacked and being beaten when a man saves her. After the attack she finds the man is injured and takes care of him. Cam awakes to find what he thinks is a lad has taken care of him. He tells him he will take him to his destination and help him out to return the favor He accidently discovers the lad is a girl. Joan soon finds she is attracted to him and when he makes a move she doesn't resist. When the message she delivers makes everything change they both have to decide if a marriage is what they really want and where to go from there.

Joan is tough, rough around the edges and not used to fine things. She is a great healer and knows how to hunt for food. I really liked her as she knows she has faults and it does get her down at times. She doesn't like to force anyone to do what they don't want to do. Cam is great. He protects innocents and is a caring guy. It also helps he is a hot Scotsman! He doesn't know for sure how to show a lot of his feelings but in may ways he shows it through little things.

This was a wonderful historical romance. It has a hot love that at times can seem sweet, a few mysteries to figure out, danger and much more. I am a fan of this authors and she didn't disappoint me in this new book at all. Cam is a character who will stick in your mind and make you want more of him. Joan also makes it great as she isn't a character that is weak or one that faints a lot. There is one of those in tis book but I liked her as well. There is also a evil well witch to put it nicely. I hated her and wanted to choke her. Without giving anything away I will say fans of historical romance will love this one and it is a must read!
