Well, this book was my second from this author.
i enjoyed risk everything quite a lot a few years back.
I must say that I read Outlander recently so I had in my mind when I started reading this on.
I'm not a fan of time travel. However, I did enjoy the character to some point. Others were not very well developed, the main character could have been better built and her fears and hopes better explain and explored.
It was an outline interesting that didn't develop to its potential.
The passion between the main characters is palpable and intense in a way that makes you want to say to see how it's going to explode.… (más)

After the death of a truly disgusting suitor when he has a heart attack when seeing her naked, the heroine's father decrees that the next man to come calling will be the one to marry her. Turns out the hero is that lucky man. Born a bastard he has no hopes of inheriting any of his family's wealth but by chance, marrying the heroine will allow him to own a castle that was once owned by his great great grandfather. The heroine sees the hero as nothing but a brute and a truly frightening one at that, so when she runs away the hero comes up with a scheme to make her think he's escorting her to a hideaway in Scotland. He shaves his beard and washes away his face paint and the heroine has no idea that he's in fact her betrothal. Accompanied by her weak and rather stupid cousin, the heroine and hero embark on the long trip into the highlands. Along the way the hero makes a game of outsmarting the heroine -which isn't all the difficult- and teasing her relentlessly. While she's pretending to be a servant, the hero takes full advantage and is constantly pointing out all the things she's doing wrong. I did find the first half of the book to be enjoyable. The heroine is quite stupid and stubborn and cowardly but the hero makes the story passable with all his teasing. After that however, I felt the book went into a coma. Quite literally nothing happened from the arrival at the keep until the heroine was kidnapped about 2 thirds through the book. That blank time in-between was filled with fucking stupid conversations about the male anatomy and showcasing how idiotic both the heroine and her cousin were. God all mighty I wanted to shove both of them down a well. Funny enough the heroine went on and one about female equality and the fact that she wants a husband to have intelligent conversations with, when the girl is dumber than a light post! You could not have written a female empowering story with a worst female character. I truly felt so sorry for the hero having to deal with her. When she's kidnapped and nearly raped, the hero flies into a rage-justifiable- and kills the man who dares touch his woman. I found it heroic and sweet, not the heroine1 She's disgusted by his outburst and cringes away from him when all he wants is to comfort her. She turns instead to his brother for comfort. I almost leapt into the book to smack her. There are parts of spirit and life, but 90% of this book is flat and dead. Disappointing… (más)
