Scottish/ English Border
June 1193
The Sutherland clan is suffering horribly, as they are starving to death! Some of their clan have even died due to malnourishment and lack of food. The clan has had a bad harvest with bad crops due to heavy droughts. It is not like the Sutherland twins, Graham and his elder brother Cormac, who is the new chieftain, have not asked for relief. They had asked their neighboring Ross clan for assistance, yet they heartlessly refused! However, the heinous, despicable, black guards actually qgave aid to their biggest enemy - the MacDonald’s! Well it was time to pay the piper!
Now both Brodie and Baston Ross have both acquired two wealthy sassenach heiresses that they plan to marry. To kill two birds with one stone Graham hashes out a desperate but clever plan to both save the clan and get sweet vengeance against the hated Ross clan! Of course Graham realizes his life was going to change forever! He imagines Lady Clara de Montfort, as this ugly, nagging, Sassenach wench of a wife, but he would do this in a heartbeat just to save his clan! As his brother Cormac decided he would go after Chieftain Brodie Ross’s betrothed, Lady Isolde, since he was the Sutherland’s Chieftain so that made sense. The other problem is his brother, he doesn’t exactly have a smooth, silver tongue with the lassies. He needed to stop frowning, learn how to flirt and show his lady the dent in his cheek by smiling more often. Cormac is a far cry from a ladies man, but this plot has to be a win for the both of them to work. Unfortunately they only have a week at Lord Yves tourney at Rose Citadel for them to accomplish their goal to break these betrothals and steal their wealthy treasures in bloodthirsty England!
Lady Clara de Montfort of Normandy, France, has a
father Count de Evreux, who would always defend and protect her. He never would of allowed this farce of marriage to happen if he had been well. Sadly her uncaring, selfish, conniving mother and her Aunt, who is in a royal marriage to Prince John hatched up this plan. Lady Clara is being forced into a marriage she doesn’t want all-she doesn’t even want to be married to anyone and only wants to return to her father and animals in Normandy. This would be a royal marriage as well, to her it feels like she is being sold like a cow for coin. On top of that she is not allowed to bring her arrows as she loves to practice the sport of archery. She is only allowed to bring her horse and hawk. She is forbidden to bring her menagerie of pets that includes her four dogs, two cats, two sheep, three pet bunnies, a squirrel, coy pond which is so heartbreaking. So she only wants her betrothal to be broken as she is forbidden to do it, but will force this Baston Ross to do it! Clara will make him think how miserable she will make him and will be the most horrible wife, making him break the betrothal!
Now as she meets Baston Ross and finds him a total self-centered, conceited idiot. There was no way she was going to be tied down to him for the rest of her life. There had to be a way out than she meets the charming, Gregor Sutherland, a man who becomes her partner in crime to help her get rid of her unwanted fiancé. Unfortunately he isn’t the smartest lad and does not even understands her insults and sarcasm plus she sees his cruelty to others and how he lashes out to others he feels beneath him.
Clara soon meets her Shield, the most handsome and flirtatious Graham Sutherland of Scotlande. She soon discovers he is no admirer of her betrothed and realizes he can be her partner in crime. Feelings start to develop on both sides yet she knows Graham will never want to marry her and only consider her a friend. Except she doesn’t mind learning to kiss from this man. For Graham, Clara is an unexpected surprise as she is both beautiful, smart, kind, funny and independent.
Will Graham and his brother be able to save their clan from starvation? Will he realize this lass is worth more than her wealth and beauty to save his clan? Will his plan succeed in stealing another man’s bride? Will Baston Ross kill him out of jealousy for his possesion? Will he believe Clara is involved in a political plot? Will he ever open his heart?
Will Clara ever find out the real reason Graham Sutherland came into her life? Will she feel he’s another person who only wants her money and doesn’t see her self worth? Will this totally destroy her and shatter her tender heart? Would she ever be able to forgive Graham if she discovers his betrayal? Will she ever be able to escape her unwanted marriage to Baston Ross? Will she find out her Mother and Aunt’s and Uncle’s political shenanigans? Will she ever go back to Normandy and see her father and pets again? This and so many more questions to watch and see how this magnificent story unfolds.
I have been reading Eliza Knight for over a decade! Her stories always have had the quality of stirring my heart with so much depth and beauty-that has this mesmerizing effect on me. Her hero’s are absolutely swoon worthy, loyal, protective, brave, loving and honorable. Of course dented cheeks don’t hurt either! These heroine’s are strong, brave, honorable, sensual, independent, intelligent women and both the men and women have these magnetic caring souls. Of course the plotting is always fantastic with breathtaking settings, clever dialogue and multi dimensional main characters including secondary characters too. As an animal lover this a big plus for me too!
This is another book that Ms. Knight knocked out of the park in my humble opinion! It is a
riveting, fast-paced, page turning, romantic adventure that I couldn’t put down. I read in one setting it was absolutely phenomenal. I absolutely loved this story “The Highlander’s Dare” by Eliza Knight. She is one of my favorite authors as every book I have read I have always loved. This is actually a prequel to her (Stolen Bride) Series. I am a huge huge fan of her “Stolen Bride”series too! Also if you read this book carefully you might see a couple characters from a previous book or future book in the series. You can definitely read them as stand alone books, but I highly recommend you read them all. They are all written by bestselling authors which I have included in this review.
Make sure to grab a copy of “The Highlander’s Dare” by Eliza Knight today. A book you definitely do not want to miss!
Also coming in June check out a brand new series by Eliza Knight that looks unforgettable “The Rebel Wears Plaid” which will be the first book in The Prince Charlies Angels series coming out June 30th 2020. It will surely be another heart melter! Happy Reading!
