1.0 out of 5 stars Very Poor Writing
I love all things Scottish, but not this book. The descriptions were bland and the diction was horrid - at one point Carlow's hero describes his feelings about his beloved's appearance - "Her figure was wonderful." What does that really mean? I have read much better books set in this time - try Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series, but avoid this book!

This review is from: Highland Desire (Paperback)
Glynis MacPherson knew that Robert Forbes was the only man for her. Unfortunately, Robert saw her only as a little sister. When his eyes are finally opened, he is too late to stop her marriage to another. Set in a time of danger & intrigue, Highlanders fought to restore Bonnie Prince Charlie to the throne of England...and suffered great loss at the Battle of Culloden.

An engrossing tale of love & loss, loyalty & betrayal. I found myself glued to the pages as this kept me enthralled by the challenges fate has dealt them. Their love remains constant as they struggle to survive in a world gone mad.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, August 18, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Highland Desire (Paperback)
This book was amazing I hate reading but once I read this book I couldnt put it down! The book is a little slow at first and the chapers are amazingly long, I still loved the book, Ramesy is a villian you love to hate, This is the first Historical Romance novel I read, and I look foward to reading Highland Fire and Highland Flame when it comes out

3.0 out of 5 stars Highland Desire, July 7, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Highland Desire (Paperback)
I just finished reading this book, although there were quite a few mistakes, I found the book to keep me in suspence and hungry to find out what was going to happen next. But, I also found it to be too slow moving at times and I wanted to get to know the characters better. I will look for another book by this author to read!
