Deed #2
The Key
Iliana Wildwood would do anything to escape from the depraved baron who sought her lands - including marrying a barbarian.
Fleeing the highlands, Iliana was wedded to Duncan, laird to Dunbar Castle. Certainly, there was something about the virile warrior that made her weak in the knees - but something stank in the state of Scotland, and Iliana would not trust anyone until she'd discovered the source.
Determined therefore to resist her handsome husband, Iliana found a way to keep her secrets safe. Employing a belt of chastity, the spirited beauty managed to thwart the thane's advances. But then her husband changed his tactics and began a sensual assault that sent her intentions up in smoke. And as the air cleared, Iliana found it had been her heart she had locked away, and that this stubborn Scot had finally found...

Seperti biasa, komedi situasinya Lyndsay Sands selalu bisa bikin geli.
Cerita dimulai ketika Iliana Wildwood dan Duncan Dunbar dinikahkan demi melindungi keselamatan Iliana dan ibunya dari ayah tirinya yang kejam dan bully. Duncan bisa dibilang tipikal Hero yang kita kenal--gagah, ganteng, sensual, dan smart. Kekurangannya cuma satu--bau badan. Yup, si Duncan cuma mandi setahun dua kali, tepatnya di bulan Januari dan Juni. Yaiks! Tentu aja Iliana jadi ilfil dan ogah tidur bareng suaminya ini. Cerdiknya, Iliana pun memasang 'sabuk keperawanan' dan menyembunyikan kuncinya supaya Duncan ga bisa minta jatah. LoL.
Saya suka karakter Iliana. Dia kuat, punya prinsip dan tekat. Tipe wanita bertangan besi. Karena dedikasi Iliana, kastil Dunbar yang dulunya jorok, kumuh, bau, dan penghuninya jarang mandi akhirnya bisa berubah 180 derajat. Konflik dimulai ketika Duncan menganggap Iliana sok ikut campur dan takut dengan perubahan, secara Iliana di sana kan tinggalnya di pondok mertua indah. Ya harusnya Iliana manut tradisi dan kebiasaan yang ada di kastil Dunbar, bukannya malah mengubahnya jadi kaya tempat tinggalnya dulu di Wildwood. Cerita makin seru saat ibunya Iliana datang dengan kondisi babak belur dihajar bokap tirinya, dan gimana tingkah-polah penghuni kastil Dunbar yang harus mengubah tradisi jorok mereka.
Overall, ada lucunya, ada romantisnya, ada tegang, dan banyak lagi. Sekali lagi Lyndsay Sands bisa membuat saya geleng-geleng dengan ide ceritanya yang engga biasa, tapi gokil abis. Thumbs up!
