Synopsis

From New York Times bestseller Hannah Howell, a classic love story of a Scottish hero too wild to be tamed and the woman he's destined to set free . . .

Pleasance Dunstan is used to silently bearing the cruelties put upon her by her thoughtless family. But nothing can prepare her for the greatest indignity of all: being sold into servitude to a man as wild as Tearlach O'Duine. His untamed ways are whispered of throughout town, and he has set his sights on Pleasance to be more than his servant. He will have her in his bed.

Pleasance could escape this fate with a word, but her fierce pride keeps her silent. Instead, she follows her new master to the rough lands where he has made a home and finds a world beyond any she has ever known—a world of desire. For though he is her captor, only Tearlach can show her how freeing true passion can be . . . and while her servitude to him will one day end, nothing can stop the binding of their hearts . . .

Contains mature themes.

The hero is Scottish and I know that the style was to show off his accent but it was hard to follow (rereading a simple sentence three times to understand it!) and he didn't always have his accent. 2) The big thing the hero......more

It picked up a little at the end but still I wish I hadn't read it... It was soooo boring... It took me over a year to be able to finish it and I kinda regret spending time reading about Pleasance and Tearlach.........more

Goodreads review by Sarah on December 31, 2022

This book is 30 years old, so it has the dated stereotypes as expected. But looking past those it was an ok read. But it did go on for about 100 pages longer than it needed to. The stuff in the last 100 pages was interesting enough, but not really necessary at all, since there were many times the tw......more
