    <![CDATA[A WOMAN'S TENDER TOUCH<br/>He was born to the clan of warriors of supernatural strength, but Gavrael MccIllioch abandoned his name and his Highland castle, determined to escape the dark fate of his ancestors.  Hiding his identity from the relentless rival clan that hunted him, he called himself Grimm to protect the people he cared for, vowing never to acknowledge his love for ravishing Jillian St. Clair.  Yet even from afar he watched over her, and when her father sent an urgent summons, &quot;Come for Jillian,&quot; he raced to her side---into a competition to win her hand in marriage.<br/><br/>A WARRIOR'S STEELY HEART<br/>Why had he run from her so many years before?  And why return now to see her offered as a prize in her father's manipulative game?  Furious, Jillian vowed never to wed.  But Grimm was the man she loved, the one who urged her to marry another.  He tried to pretend indifference as she tempted him, but he could not deny the fierce desires that compelled him to abduct her from the altar.  She was the only woman who could tame the beast that raged within him---even as deadly enemies plotted to destroy them both...]]>

    <body><![CDATA[This book was ok like the first one. It's more of a 3.5 stars than a 4.  It's a bit ho-hum in terms of highlander stories. The writing is not always &quot;historical&quot; which takes away from the historical feel and the stories aren't all that original.  Several people say it's a fantastic series ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/16387402">more...</a>]]></body>

    <![CDATA[A WOMAN'S TENDER TOUCH<br/>He was born to the clan of warriors of supernatural strength, but Gavrael MccIllioch abandoned his name and his Highland castle, determined to escape the dark fate of his ancestors.  Hiding his identity from the relentless rival clan that hunted him, he called himself Grimm to protect the people he cared for, vowing never to acknowledge his love for ravishing Jillian St. Clair.  Yet even from afar he watched over her, and when her father sent an urgent summons, &quot;Come for Jillian,&quot; he raced to her side---into a competition to win her hand in marriage.<br/><br/>A WARRIOR'S STEELY HEART<br/>Why had he run from her so many years before?  And why return now to see her offered as a prize in her father's manipulative game?  Furious, Jillian vowed never to wed.  But Grimm was the man she loved, the one who urged her to marry another.  He tried to pretend indifference as she tempted him, but he could not deny the fierce desires that compelled him to abduct her from the altar.  She was the only woman who could tame the beast that raged within him---even as deadly enemies plotted to destroy them both...]]>

    <body><![CDATA[This book focuses on the Highland legend of the Beserker, which is very interesting.  The two main characters, Grimm (from book #1) and Jillian, make a wonderful pair.  I enjoyed the other characters in the book--Zeke, Kaley, and Quinn.  The plot was interesting and moved swiftly.]]></body>

    <![CDATA[A WOMAN'S TENDER TOUCH<br/>He was born to the clan of warriors of supernatural strength, but Gavrael MccIllioch abandoned his name and his Highland castle, determined to escape the dark fate of his ancestors.  Hiding his identity from the relentless rival clan that hunted him, he called himself Grimm to protect the people he cared for, vowing never to acknowledge his love for ravishing Jillian St. Clair.  Yet even from afar he watched over her, and when her father sent an urgent summons, &quot;Come for Jillian,&quot; he raced to her side---into a competition to win her hand in marriage.<br/><br/>A WARRIOR'S STEELY HEART<br/>Why had he run from her so many years before?  And why return now to see her offered as a prize in her father's manipulative game?  Furious, Jillian vowed never to wed.  But Grimm was the man she loved, the one who urged her to marry another.  He tried to pretend indifference as she tempted him, but he could not deny the fierce desires that compelled him to abduct her from the altar.  She was the only woman who could tame the beast that raged within him---even as deadly enemies plotted to destroy them both...]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Had I read this book first, I would not have taken the time to read the others in Moning's &quot;Highlander&quot; series. Fortunately, the later books of this series seem to have become a bit more paranormal &amp; a bit less smutty romance novel -- thank God!]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The 2nd installment of KMM's Highlander series does not disappoint.  In fact, it's even better than her first book.<br/><br/>The love and romance in this story will leave you quite breathless.
