Highland Heart
The Way of the Warrior
Jamie MacDonald was a loner and had a dangerous task to unite the feuding Highland clans against a traitor's conspiracy. His desperate search for allies led him to Clan Gordon and against his better judgment, into the arms of Lindsey Gordon, proud, willful daughter of that noble house.
Lindsey knew too well the fearsome reputation of the red-bearded giant they called the Heartless MacDonald, and she cared little for his rough ways. Yet, even as she struggled In his unwelcome embrace, she longed for his noble heart that this warrior concealed so well.

Cette romance historique date d'il y a 30 ans, et reflète donc les codes de l'époque, mais il se révèle cependant agréable à lire.
Même si le début peut paraitre un peu lent, on se laisse prendre par les aventures de Lindsay et Jamie et l'interaction avec la grande Histoire.
Si Lindsay se révèle une héroïne forte et fragile à la fois, qui oscille entre ignorance des relations amoureuse mais élevée pratiquement comme un garçon, Jamie est un héros viril et puissant, mais qui cache une sensibilité sous son caractère impitoyable. Quelques surprises et péripéties sont venues compléter le récit, agréablement.
Un sympathique moment de lecture.

Great series
The series just keeps getting better and better. With all the twists and turns I was surprised several times.
I wonder what happened to book number three of the series.

This book made me cry in a few spots. The pride Lindsey possesses despite life throwing her a curveball, is palpable and has the reader rooting for her in the end. Jamie's a good, solid guy trying to do a good, solid job despite some rough circumstances. It's such an enjoyable read when they find each other. I really liked this book.

I adored the hero as a background player in Highland Barbarian and I'm crazy over him as the lead in this book.
