In the past, I have
read Highland Blessings and Highland Sanctuary. Since I enjoyed both
those books, I was glad to be given the opportunity to read an advanced copy of
this, the first in the author's new series, The MacGregor Legacy.
In Scotland 1760, Malcolm
returns to his village to find that the clan who hates his family, the Campbells,
have attacked people and kidnapped his mother and sister and sent them to the
colonies to be sold as indentured servants. In retaliation, he decides to
take Lauren, the clan leader's daughter, to America and exchange her for his
family.
Lauren tries to look
at Malcolm the way God does. She cares about the fate of Malcolm's mother
and sister almost as much as he does and she proves it with her actions.
From the moment they are thrown together, they seem drawn to one another.
Malcolm comes to regret his plan and vows to find another way to release
his mother and sister while proving his devotion to Lauren.
I can't believe how
much I liked this book. I had to force myself to put it down to save my
eyes, but still finished it in two days. While things are nicely wrapped
up at the end, there are plans for more to the series. Next March, book 2
is due out called For Love or Country. The setting of this book is about 20
years after the first one, making it a safe bet that the books can stand alone. That is my favorite type of series. Book 3 is due out October 2014 and is
called For Love or Liberty. I am looking forward to reading both of them. Good Book!
*I received a copy of
this book from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
