To Marry a Highlander

This book became a wonderful read after only a few pages! It was exciting and full of love and respect! I totally loved every page and was surprised I finished it so soon! It was that hard to put down & I am ready to keep reading the entire series. Edie Martin

I couldn’t even turn the first page. The effort to make conversation realistic by writing in a less than accurate Scottish accent isn’t good writing by anyone’s definition. Scattered use of specific terms is one thing, but this drove me nuts. Worse, the narration switches back & forth between the 2, not being consistently in language at all. Too distracting & annoying. Get what you pay for with this one.

I’m going back in a few weeks to see

I enjoyed it and recommend it.

Loved the story. It had everything—unexpected romance; family scenarios, and even intriguing dilemma. Enjoyable read.

Haydon has warned Conall for years that his rakish ways would cause him trouble someday. And they did, twice. Conall and Maura have known each other since childhood. She has loved him for almost that long, but thought nothing would come of it, because Conall loved the lasses and made no secret that he did not wish to marry. When they are caught mid-kiss, his plans change. Her bothers insist. Maura and Conall are a good match, and have a story filled with drama, fun, romance. There are a couple of twists and turns, and a bit of suspense. There’s mystery and a problem that must be taken care of. This is a well-written, fast-paced, enjoyable story with loveable (most of them) characters. It has a great epilogue. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

This is the second book in Callie Hutton’s new series The Sutherland of Dornoch Castle, this story follows the Laird’s younger, roguish brother Conell who has no plans to settle down and marry anytime soon. Maura MacEwan, has known Conell for most of her life and always had a tendre for him but she knows his reputation and distaste of marriage so has always resisted being another lass charmed by him. Unknown to her Conell had admired and respected Maura but has kept his distance never wishing to tarnish her reputation. After a dance at the castle where he invited her to, Maura’s elder brother discovers them in an embrace which forces a marriage to preserve her honor. Living together in the castle proves difficult for Maura, having to deal with many of Conell’s past conquests, determined to deal with it her own way shows a strength and courage allowing Conell to see the remarkable woman he is married to. Together they put the past behind them allowing their true feelings to surface, a deep love for one another. I have to say although I enjoyed the first book in the series this is my favorite, I do like a rogue. This book has great characters, drama, humor and of course a happy ever after. I would recommend this book to all. I received and reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book and this is my honest opinions and review.
