In The Arms of A Highlander by Michele Sinclair @KensingtonBooks

 PUBLISHER DESCRIPTION

The McTiernay brothers will always be able to depend upon Brodie Dunstan’s loyalty, his sword, and his strength. But there is another kind of bond—one that can fell even a fearless warrior . . .
 
Brodie Dunstan was an honored McTiernay commander when he agreed to leave and help an allied clan. Eight years later, he’s back among the McTiernays at Lochlen Castle, yet despite the welcome, Brodie feels he’s still searching for his rightful place. The moment he rescues a storm-soaked young woman on the road to Lochlen, he wonders if he’s found it . . .
 
From nun to killer to royal spy, Shinae Mayboill has had little choice in her life’s path so far. Now, caught in a compromising position with Brodie after her rescue, she’s ushered into a hasty marriage. To her surprise, Brodie is unlike any man she has ever met, with a tenderness that belies his powerful persona. Their passion deepens every day. But when Brodie learns the truth about her past—and the real reason she has come to Lochlen Castle—will there still be room for her in the Highlander’s heart?

My Review

In the Arms of a Highlander by Michele Sinclair
My rating: 4 of 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I loved this book so much! There are eight books before this one, which I haven't read, and I was still able to enjoy this with feeling like I'm missing information. I could hardly put it down!

The prologue has lots of action. And after the marriage, it might feel like it slows down a little but there is still a lot of things going on at Lochlen Castle. The mystery of who wants to hurt her brother in law, and this couple going through some married to a stranger growing pains.

Shinae is a nun but after an attack on her abbey, she decides to renounce her vows, help those injured in the recent attacks and reunite with her younger sister. She travels with another ex-nun, who she feels is slowing her down. They are caught in a storm before reaching Lochlen Castle.

Brodie was a commander for the clan McTiernay before he left to help an allied clan. But now he's back and searching for his rightful place. While out taking a walk he's caught off guard by an incoming storm. As he seeks shelter he comes across a woman making her way to Lochlen.

The next morning, they are caught in a compromising position and they are rushed into marriage. Both know they could protest this but don't because each has a reason to go through with this marriage.

Thank you so much to the author, Avon/Harper Voyager and NetGalley for this ARC to review.
