I liked that Patrick pretended to be someone else because it's always interesting to see how the truth is revealed. Patrick was the perfect hero for her because he truly loved her despite her flaws. " I loved the heroine of this story because she was so relateable especially with her relationships with men. " You know I love me some Monica McCarty. " Aww Patrick is soo cute! " - Brittany,
Overall Performance: Narration Rating: Story Rating:. As they are all very loosely based on real people and events, it's great to read the facts that inspired her stories, as well as the extra goodies and the yummy highlanders that all come from somewhere in dreamland. She seems very knowledgeable about the time period, and includes details that most people (like me!) would never get around to discovering on their own. I like how all of her series flow into one another, and how she has little historically accurate notes at the end. The more I read of Monica McCarty, the more I want to know about what happens to the rest of the characters in her books. I don't like staying in the same drafty castle for 300 pages. Exciting and an almost constant change of scenery, which is great. So when the piercing emerald eyes and searing kiss of a stranger spark in her a desperate hunger, she surrenders to Patrick's glorious seduction-unaware that his daring deception has just found its one and only chance for redemption: a love more powerful than hate. Inside the shy and dutiful Lizzie is a passionate woman longing to emerge, a woman ready for love. Her sweet, unspoiled softness touches the cold depths of his ravaged soul-and makes him want much more than revenge.
Yet the flaxen-haired beauty disarms him from the start.
He will stop at nothing to save his people from destruction, even if it means marrying Elizabeth Campbell, the daughter of his worst enemy. Handsome and dangerous, Patrick MacGregor is a wanted man, possessing the tough, tenacious spirit of his outlawed clan.
