of Galloway- last of the significant Scots opposition of robert The Bruce’s kingship. Dugald was responsible for the death of over seven hundred men. Even was eoin’s partner in the Highland guards . Eoin has the nickname Striker among the elite warriors of the King’s secret Highland Guard. This was Dugald’s daughters wedding day and Eoin was sure Dugald would not miss that. The guard had found out by missive that Maggie was to marry and out of nine kids Maggie was Dugald’s only daughter. Maggie had been married one time before and had a five year old son -Eachann who was like his father who had been serious and contemplative. His eyes were also similar to his father’s who had died or so Maggie thought. Then as Maggie was to marry Eoin objected when the priest asked anyone objected to the marriage. Eoin had fell in love with his enemy’s daughter he had been torn between Maggie and his loyalty to his king. But then Maggie had betrayed him or so Eoin believed Eoin being part of the Highland Guard yet he couldn’t tell Maggie Eoin is a great strategist and his cousin to Robert The Bruce. At the wedding after seeing Maggie he realizes his feelings aren’t dead but also that he has a son. The first part of this story goes back to Maggie and Eoin meeting and falling in love. The second half appropriately was at Maggie’s second wedding. Dugald escapes takes Eachann with him now Maggie and Eoin must work together to get their son back.

Excellent story really enjoyed it. I like how the author went back to show you how Eoin and Maggie met and fell in love despite their beliefs. I don’t usually like going to the past in a story but for some reason this was written just so and I didn’t mind at all. It was wonderful to see Eoin’s bitterness and distrust fade and love to return to him as well as Maggie even though she was to remarry it was for the safety of her son. So all and all a great story with great characters. I liked all the twists and turns Maggie and Eoin went through. I highly recommend.

I received an ARC of this story for an honest review.
