My Thoughts:
OMG!! Since I saw the cover of this book I knew I had to read it. I'm a super fan of Outlander and Jamie Fraser (aka Sam Heughan (my future husband)) so once I saw a man with a kilt I was ready to join the clans.
This book is absorbing, breathtaking, heartwarming, and absolutely lavishly and evokes the land and lore of Scotland. This story has everything a reader wants realistic characters and a hot Scottish man, likable and strong heroine.Shaw Sinclair, Chief of the Sinclair clan and he is strong, hot but has gone through so much and obviously has something to high and to deal with.
He is a strong man inside and out for sure as a kid he lost his dad and was abused by his uncle but not just that he has to endure and watch her mom and sister suffering from abuse too. Thanks to his uncle the clan has suffered and lost way too much and Shaw wants the crown to restore his home and lands. To do this he has to deliver a newborn baby girl to a boat in St. Andrews but things are never easy for him as he has to battle so bad guys and find someone to take care of the baby.
Alana Campbell, sister to the Laird of the southern Campbells and she is smart, clever, beautiful, and a warrior. She needs to get to Edinburg to rescue her mother. Shaw and Alana's paths cross as Shaw needs a woman to take care of the baby and kidnaps her. At the beginning she isn't that easy but once she knows their destination is the same she helps him.Somewhere along the way, Alana starts to fall and care for Shaw and the baby and they have a verra nice adventure and enough time to get to know each other. Through the pages, the Highlanders' daily life blends poignant emotions with Scottish wit, battles, and humor. I can't wait to read more and the rest of the books in this series.
Mis pensamientos: ¡¡DIOS MIO!! Desde que vi la portada de este libro supe que tenÃa que leerlo. Soy un súper fanática de Outlander y Jamie Fraser (también conocido como Sam Heughan (mi futuro esposo)), asà que una vez que vi a un hombre con una falda escocesa, estaba listo para unirme a los clanes. Este libro es absorbente, impresionante, conmovedor y absolutamente evoca la tierra y la tradición de Escocia. Esta historia tiene todo lo que un lector quiere personajes realistas y un hombre escocés guapo, heroÃna agradable y fuerte.
Shaw Sinclair, Jefe del clan Sinclair y él es fuerte, ardiente pero ha pasado por mucho y obviamente tiene algo que superar y con qué lidiar. Es un hombre fuerte por dentro y por fuera cuando era niño, perdió a su padre y fue maltratado por su tÃo, pero no solo porque tiene que soportar y ver a su madre y a su hermana sufrir abusos también. Gracias a su tÃo, el clan ha sufrido y perdido demasiado y Shaw quiere que la corona le restaure su hogar y sus tierras. Para hacer esto, tiene que llevar a una niña recién nacida a un bote en St. Andrews, pero las cosas nunca son fáciles para él, ya que tiene que luchar contra tipos tan malos y encontrar a alguien que cuide al bebé.
Alana Campbell, hermana del Laird del sur de Campbell y es inteligente, inteligente, hermosa y guerrera. Ella necesita llegar a Edinburg para rescatar a su madre. Los caminos de Shaw y Alana se cruzan cuando Shaw necesita una mujer para cuidar al bebé y la secuestra. Al principio no es tan fácil, pero una vez que sabe que su destino es el mismo, lo ayuda.
En algún momento, Alana comienza a enamorarse de Shaw y el bebé, y tienen una aventura muy agradable y suficiente tiempo para conocerse. A través de las páginas, la vida cotidiana de los Highlanders combina emociones conmovedoras con ingenio escocés, batallas y humor. No puedo esperar para leer más y el resto de los libros de esta serie.
