Fiona is a feisty young woman raised by her brothers. She isn’t very ladylike but trained in weapons. She is quite a healer. All in all she is a tomboy. I loved that she didn’t cower when surround by Ewan and his brothers instead she choose to show them what she wasn’t a helpless female. While being a hostage she continued to be herself and stuck to her guns.

I really like this story. I really liked Fiona MacEnroy's sense of humor and her cheerful disposition, especially considering her circumstances. Fiona was a strong woman who knew what she wanted when it came to love. Both Fiona and Ewan were physically scared. Fiona’s scars came from the hand of a fanatical and obsessive madman stalking her. For her protection her family keep her within the 4 walls of their keep. After riding off on her unruly horse, she soon becomes lost and falls into the hand...more

Highland Warrior tells the story of Fiona MacEnroy, the tomboy sister we met in previous books. And yep, I read the book in about 1-2 days, and yes, it was that good. Although I've thoroughly enjoyed most, if not all, of the books in this series, I really enjoyed this book. Not only did I love the characters Fiona and Ewan, but I loved revisiting some of the characters from the previous books. I also liked the humor and action, and would be remiss if I didn't admit to loving the romance of the s...more
Ewan MacFingal is somewhat similar to Connor MacEnroy from Highland Bride. However, I found his story less annoying to read. Although Fiona wants Ewan to make her "yell", less attention is paid to that in this story so you don't feel as embarrassed for the heroine. Fiona is a good, strong female who actually can handle herself with a sword; the only downside is that she is so small that she would be very unlikely to win against a well-trained man. However, Howell does avoid making a lot of claim...more
If I had a beef about this series it would be that too much of it is kind of formula. Heroine is a tiny but spunky woman with a problem. Hero is a giant with a history that leads him to think All Women Are Evil, so that he'll resist caring and do stupid stuff until he Almost Loses Her and Sees the Light. Too Good To Be True heroine keeps getting her feelings hurt, but once she learns the reason he's such a jerk, she sympathizes and puts up with his crap because she's determined to win his heart....more

I read all of Ms Howell's books Back to Back to Back.. while this is a fun series I seriously do not recommend anyone doing so. The plots tend to be repetitious and run together. If you want to enjoy the Murray Clan, take your time.. there is much to enjoy just one at a time.
Loved this book! It wasn't just a romance novel - Fiona could hold her own, and I thought that was great. She wasn't some spoiled heiress just waiting to be rescued. This book had great lines in it that just had me plain laughing. Fun fun fun read!
have this book and never get tired over reading it again.. she love how Fiona's is so smart beautiful and independent.. and tht Swan was able to over come his scars and open his heart to a wonderful women.. and both change the way the household.
It's a decent series. I will probably read another of the books but I am not running out to get one. That's just me. If you are a fan of Highlander fiction without the paranormal element, this is a great series to read.
My first book by Hannah Howell. I was hooked from the beginning. I loved Fiona's character, and all the characters of the quirky MacFingal clan. They were enjoyable to read about and the story was addicting.
I do love historical romances set in the highlands. The heroes in the books are always so tough and strong, they are always described like the ultimate protector. This book was no exception. The hero was described as tall, dark, and handsome...and that sounds good to me!
I enjoyed this story. But the conflict seemed contrived. How dare the hero want his money and inheritance? I really don't think this compares with her relatives trying to kill her.

You will love this one. Fiona is a fierce little woman in trouble when she is captured by a hunk and his men. Iain's family is full of fun and mischief. Sit back and enjoy.
Very funny and fast paced book, lots of action. The main characters Ewan and Fiona are a good match. Even though this book is part of a series it can be read as a stand alone.
Po Hvězdách jsem potřebovala něco nenáročného a vtipného a milého a romatické a happyendového....dokonale splnila účel :) Ještě, že je těch Skotu tolik :D
I loved Fiona and how she took matters into her own hands in getting the Warrior she wanted. I would say this one is among my favorites to read
it,s about a man and a woman who amid treachery, jealousy, adversity, and clan wars fall in love and overcome the odds to be together
This story is about Fiona MacEnroy. She is the little sister to Connor MacEnroy ("Highland Bride" with Gillyanne Murray). In "Highland Bride," she is a young girl (tomboy).
She is all grown-up here, but since she was the youngest of a bunch of boys that had to raise themselves in Scotland, she learned how to defend herself--with knives. LOL She refuses to tell Ewan her last name, so he nicknames her Fiona with 11 knives because that's how many knives he found on her.

Exactly what you'd expect. It only gets two stars because I read it on location in Scotland, which made it a touch more amusing.

Even after a second or possibly a third read this book is just as good as the first time. It is a fine Scottish tale.
If you want a good Scottish/Irish romance this would work well!
Love me some Highlanders... not to bad maybe I should read some more
3.5 Love revisiting old comfortable Scottish romances.
Okay, Hannah Howell is an author that you can only take in small doses. Though her books are good they are all EXACTLY THE SAME. In fact I think I could even write a book for her now that I have read enough. Same book just different characters. In this book both the hero and heroine have scars on their face. But the hero is way more self conscious of it than the heroine is of hers. But anyhoo, the book was ok. As was the highland book before it and the one before that one. And the one before tha...more

In the ninth novel about the Murray clan and their circle, Fiona, sister to Connor who married Gillyanne Murray, loses her way in the Highlands and falls into the hands of the MacFingals. Ewan MacFingal attempts to find out her clan, which she with holds. She does find herself drawn to him and so romance blooms again. (If the Highlands were anything like these novels portray, it was indeed a lusty, happy existence) Eventually they marry and love reveals itself. Pleasant but not too memorable, wh...more
I love the concept of the Murray family lineage.
