Summary: Great story, with a hero who is not only strong, but kind
Review: ....Short version in English: Scotland in1390. Rowena was left alone by her young lover as a girl and had tofind a husband who would raise her lovechild as his own. Later as awidow she has to protect her son in a time of political turbulence,and meets her lover Lionel again. He has never stopped loving her, andwhile he is fighting to prevent a war in Scotland, he wants to winback her heart. But the odds are against him, in every way. GREATSTUFF. Inhalt Rowena McBean und Lion(el) Sutherland treffen sichals Jugendliche an einem Dorffest. Sie werden ein Paar und schwörensich ewige Liebe, obwohl sie wissen, dass Lion vorerst für drei Jahrenach Frankreich gehen wird. Als Rowena erfährt, dass sie schwangerist, wartet sie vergebens am üblichen Treffpunkt auf ihren Geliebten.Völlig verzweifelt nimmt sie das grosszügige Angebot von Laird PadruigGunn an, sie zu heiraten und das Kind als seinen Erbenaufzuziehen.Sechs Jahre später herrscht Krisenstimmung imschottischen Hochland. Der Bruder des Königs, Alexander Stewart, Earlof Buchan (auch der Wolf von Badenoch genannt), will die wilden Clansbefrieden und unter sich vereinen. Clan Sutherland weiss, dassAlexander in Wirklichkeit seinen Bruder entthronen will, doch dafürbraucht es Beweise. Während Vater Lucais zum König reist, spielt Lionein doppeltes Spiel: er schliesst sich Alexander an, gewinnt dessenVertrauen, und versucht, an die nötigen Beweise für den Verratheranzugelangen. Ausserdem versucht er die Führer der anderen Clansdaran zu hindern, voreilig gegen Alexander vorzugehen....Beurteilung Ein wunderschönes Buch mit einem wahrenTraumpaar in der Hauptrolle. Lion ist nicht nur ein mutiger undgewandter Krieger, er hat auch Humor und kann sanft und einfühlsamsein, zeigt Gefühle und fürchtet sich auch mal. Liebenswert sind auchseine vergeblichen Bemühungen, nicht auf Paddy, den er ja für PadruigsSohn hält, eifersüchtig zu sein. Rowena ist völlig überzeugend inihrer Zerrissenheit: sie trägt eine riesige Verantwortung als Mutterauf ihren Schultern, und doch ist da in ihr noch immer das jungeMädchen, das sich nach Liebe und Spass sehnt.Die Geschichte mag inmeiner Zusammenfassung etwas kompliziert klingen, sie ist es abernicht. Die Autorin behält immer den Überblick und obwohl sie dieHandlung mit viel Temp

Review: This book is so awsome, I did'nt want it to end. Once you start you can not put it down. It feels like you've been warped back in time to a heart pounding, beautiful, excitng place you wont want to leave. I've read plenty of romance novels this ranks in my top five! I would like to read other of Barclay's novels although they are very hard to find.
