Fearsome Highland warrior Rory MacLeod has sacrificed for his clan. But taken as prisoner—in place of his older brother, who’s meant to be laird—is more than any man should bear. So when the chance for escape presents itself, Rory risks everything for freedom. But instead of returning to the welcoming warmth of home, Rory steps into a blazing trap…
Despite her betrothal to their laird, Lady Sara Macdonald has no love for the MacLeod clan. But when her treacherous father locks the entire MacLeod wedding party into the church and sets fire to it, she cannot stand by and watch the slaughter. Saving them means turning traitor to her clan and becoming an enemy to her own blood…left to the mercy of her greatest enemy.
Now her intended husband lies somewhere between life and death, and Sara’s only ally is his younger brother: the fierce MacLeod warrior she’s forbidden to want. And as hunger blazes to life between Rory and Sara—unbidden, untamed, and hotter than the fires of Beltane—they quickly find themselves caught between honor and a love that will turn blood against blood.
My Review
The Highlander’s Wild Flame by Heather McCollum
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I enjoyed Rory and Sara's story. And I loved Rory's dirty mouth during their intimate moments.
There were quite a few fun characters and more than one villain to deal with. And plenty of secrets to unravel. I can't wait for the next book in the series.
Lady Sara MacDonald is set to marry into the MacLeod clan. They are her father's enemies and all she's heard are horrible stories about them. But if joining the clans means peace she'll marry the chief of the clan.
But when her father locks the wedding party in the church and sets fire to it, she jumps into action to save the people trapped inside. She knows her father will see her as a traitor but she'll take her chances with the MacLeod's over her father.
Rory MacLeod, the Lion of Skye, is a fearsome Highland warrior who was held prisoner in place of his brother and has recently returned home, in time to see his brother get married.
But with his brother injured and incapacitated after the fire, he is now in charge of leading the clan. And one of only a few who believe Lady Sara was not working with her father to kill the MacLeod leader. They are both attracted to each other but don't want to cross any lines. Plus, Rory made a vow to never trust another woman. And she constantly hears her father's voice putting her down.
Until caught in a storm, they finally give in.
Thanks so much to the author and Entangled for this ARC to review.
