Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Gets better and better
Review: Everytime Ms.Howell's books come out I rush to my store to get the newest copy. I know that I am spending my money on a book that I'll be pleased with.Too many times I have been upset with the quality of the books that I read. Ms.Howell writes the kind that once you start you can't put it down.This is one of my "keepers".

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great, Fun, and Um,,,,Yummy Read!
Review: It was nice to read a book where the hero isn't the biggest and baddest man in the world nor is the heroine the prettiest woman that had ever walked the earth. Eric, the hero, is trying to regain his birth right, and meets, beds, and marries (in that order and during a short period of time) Bethia. She comes from a family that any good social worker or family therapist would love to work with. She also is being hunted by a madman for thwarting his plan to seize a castle. It was also fun to see characters from Ms. Howell's other books, though you will enjoy this book without reading the previous two.

Review: This was actually my first Hannah Howell book. Since reading this one, I've read several others, and re-read this one two or three times! Bethia caught my attention right away. She is tiny, with one green and one blue eye, hair the color of autumn, and she sticks up for her loved ones like a 200 lb. tiger, often with no thanks. That is until one fateful day whan Sir Eric Murray happens upon her, and sees her bravely, but against unbeatably odds defending herself and her baby nephew (who she has already rescued, along with herself from being poisoned, though she wasn't in time to save her twin and twin's husband). Sir Eric sees Bethia, and though he doesn't quite recognize it, loses his heart. He has one of the handsomest faces in Scotland, and is a very good man and knight. But even though he seems big to Bethia, he is on the small side too. They start their journey together to get young laird James to Bethia's home after Eric swears he will do so. They both have much to learn, and Ms. Howell tells the tale with humor, excitment, passion, embarrassment when wanted, suspense at times, danger, big brothers, big cousins, kings, etc. all throwing their two cents in, and of course, Eric not quite trusting to tell a few details. I haven't found a book of Ms. Howell's I don't like yet, but this one remains my favorite. There is just something very charming about the insecurities of Bethia and her overcoming them. And who can resist such a handsome hero! Even when he does have a few lessons to learn? I recommend this book wholeheartedly, but not if you don't like hot under the collar love scenes! Oh boy, I enjoyed! Every word!
