The Guardian Book Review And ~~Giveaway~~





THE RETURN OF THE HIGHLANDERS: BOOK I
Four fearless warriors return to the Highlands to claim their lands and legacies. But all their trials on the battlefield can't prepare them for their greatest challenge yet: winning the hearts of four willful Scottish beauties.

PASSION IGNITED
After years of fighting abroad, Ian MacDonald comes home to find his clan in peril. To save his kin, he must right the wrongs from his past . . . and claim the bride he's long resisted.

As a young lass, Sìleas depended on Ian to play her knight in shining armor. But when his rescue attempt compromised her virtue, Ian was forced to marry against his wishes. Five years later, Sìleas has grown from an awkward girl into an independent beauty who knows she deserves better than the reluctant husband who preferred war to his wife. Now this devilishly handsome Highlander is finally falling in love. He wants a second chance with Sìleas - and he won't take no for an answer.



At first this book was very very sad.

Silas was a young girl trying to escape a bad home life.

She runs into her friend Ian (who is much older) and he protects her for a night.

Of course the next day they are found, and the wrong assumptions are made.

Ian is forced to marry Silas. He is so angry about it that he runs off for five years before he comes home to deal with his wife.

When Ian arrives home, his life there as he knew it has changed dramatically. He needs to learn all over how to take care of his family.

Silas has had it rough. She was forced to marry, and become a wife to a man that didn't want her.


She has spent the last five years hoping for him to return, and when he does, it isn't the reunion that she expected.

I really liked how the characters grow to know each other again, and how they have to deal with a lot of problems that come along.

This was a great read, and I would love to read more from Margaret Mallory.

I am very happy to be able to give three of you the chance to read this book.
