Summary: Kidnapped and Imprisoned by Love in the Highlands...
Comment: I would've liked this book alot more had it been more in depth and not so vague and simplistic. The plot and characters were very promising at first, but somewhere along the way they seemed lost and disjointed.
The story starts off slow and you find yourself wondering when it will pick up, then when it does, it sputters and then fizzles out. I haven't read anything by this author and this is an old book(1994) so this author may have matured in her writing by now(2002), so I won't judge her. It just seems as though she wasn't sure and wasn't completely confident about her ability to write an in-depth story with factual information and a compelling look into life in England and Scotland in 1281.
Some of the facts are obscure and we the reader are left with a simple shell of a tale about love and politics that leaves much to be desired.
The author proves that she doesn't know a whole lot about this time period by writing an author's note stating that fact and how she had to add into account that the family she chose(Campbell) was a major key player in the Wars for Independence from 1296-1314.
She also repeats herself throughout the book with phrases and thoughts from the main characters that seem to just fill up pages rather than add to the plot. My advice? Skip this one if you're in the mood for an exciting and fullfilling adventure through Scotland and England's wars with eath other.
She was kidnapped right from under her father's nose and dragged to the untamed wilds of Scotland to be the hostage to the Laird of Clan Campbell. Lady Leonora Waltham didn't expect to fall in love with the barbarian in the process! How could she not? He was tall and rugged and he protected her.
Dillon Campbell needed her as his hostage to make sure his brothers were returned unharmed. He doesn't expect to become enchanted by the spirited English beauty or to fall hard for her either. He has to decide...love or honor?
