I loved this book. It has an arrogant Scot and a headstrong english lass who are ordered to wed. The dynamic between the two is fantastic and the situations Marion gets herself into while Iain thinks she is safe somewhere because 'he told her to' are really funny.

When a Warrior Woos a Lass (Highlander Vows… por Julie Johnstone

This is an interesting story of two damaged people who are pushed into marriage.
The heroine was in an abusive marriage with her previous husband.
There is a strength to her though her abuse was very severe.
"she could not tolerate a man even touching her, other than her brothers placing a brief hand to her elbow to guide her or giving her a swift hug."
There are no detailed scenes of the abuse but in flashback and odd memories we see some of what she endured.
The Hero and heroine knew each other when they were children.
He always admired her and falls quickly for her but he as a darkness in his past so finds it difficult to confide this in her.
There is an mystery political plot in the background to their relationship which means more secrets.

The Hero refers to some women from his past, one mostly, in his thoughts, some glimpses but no detail. He does not come across as a manwhore type though obviously he's been with several women.

The Hero promises to be faithful, he is besotted with her, he is gentle, patient and kind.

Best to read the series in order, though I haven't but there are references to previous couple's stories so to avoid spoilers, read in order if you intend to read the series.

There is other woman drama, an ex for him, plus memories of abuse in his past.
The heroine has dreams and memories of her now dead husband.

Breadcrumbs dropped for future books in series.

Sinful Scot (Highlanders Through Time, #1) por Cecelia Mecca

Good story.
First of four books. One book per couple.
The author has based her story around a time of sketchy history so there is an element of truth there but embellished.
No intimate scenes other than the Hero and heroine.
HEA. Breadcrumbs dropped for future books in series.
Preview of next book at end.

ARC.
