Book Description:

It’s been five years since Shane MacPherson stepped foot on his clan’s lands. Still haunted from years at war and the painful ache of loss, duty has called once again…and with it, his obligation to claim his place as the new laird of Clan MacPherson. But when Shane encounters a lass—a Valkyrie in both temperament and foul tongue!—in trouble, he puts title and duty aside to defend her…

Lindsay Wallace would rather die than call the MacPherson lands her home—let alone their horrid clan. She just has to survive a month with her vile uncle before being married off as a peace offering between the Wallaces and MacPhersons. The only person she can trust is a simple soldier who is strong of body and heart. She has no interest in marrying her betrothed…so why not give in to the temptation of a soldier’s kiss?

But promises made can’t be broken or forgotten. And as shadows and war rise once again in the Highlands, Shane and Lindsay must find the courage to face their deepest secrets and their duty…before both love and clan are ripped apart

My Take:

I received a digital copy of this book from Entangled Publishing and NetGally.
I voluntarily read and reviewed a copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Next installment from an auto-buy author and did not disappoint in the least.

Another book in the Clan MacKinlay Series [https://www.goodreads.com/series/298430-clan-mackinlay]. This one is a stand-alone in the same universe. Each book is so good on its own, but the nods and links to the other books in the series just make it a bit more fun to read. As with the other books in the series, the author demonstrates remarkable ability to set a wonderful pace of story with well-rounded characters. The books are immersive and welcoming.

Amazing characters who are loveable and flawed. Just like real people.

The author is SO. GOOD. at her characters. They are so amazing and irritating and flawed and spectacular. They keep their secrets to protect themselves and the ones they love. They make decisions to save everyone but themselves. They finally see that they are important and that others love them and can share the burdens, too.

Just. Like. Us.

Every time I read this author, I love the story, I love the characters, they get themselves in trouble, and then they have a happily ever after. I’m over here kicking my feet in giddiness every time.

The Final Verdict

My rating: 5 stars

Would I recommend? Yes

Once again, I implore you to read this author’s work.
