Highland Enchantment (Highland Brides) [Mass Market Paperback]

Lois Greiman (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 6, 1999

Rachel Forbes had never wed, for none compared to Liam, the love of her childhood. But Rachel was high-born and Liam an orphan, so marriage was impossible. Now grown, a chance meeting unites Rachel with the man of her heart and it seems their destinies are entwined once more, for Liam is her rescuer and she must keep him by her side if she is to stay alive.

Liam is temped beyond all reason by Rachel. She has the eyes of a saint, the smooth skin of a princess...and lips he cannot resist kissing. He knows he has no name or family to offer--but given the eternity he has endured without her, does he dare risk the consequences of claiming her innocence and promising her a lifetime of love?

About the Author

After trying her hand at practically everything from horse-training to high fashion modeling, LOIS GREIMAN finds she most enjoys living vicariously through the lives of her fictional characters. Although she prefers her own world to remain relatively tranquil, she encourages her heroes and heroines to take outrageous risks, vent their tempers and generally take life by storm.

Born a North Dakota farm girl, Lois now lives in Dayton, Minnesota with her veterinarian husband, their three children, and as many horses as can fit on a twenty-acre farm.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enchanting Medieval romance, March 20, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Highland Enchantment (Highland Brides) (Mass Market Paperback)

She was an aristocrat while he was a nobody. They might love one another, but sixteenth century Scottish society would never allow a union between them. So neither Rachel nor Liam ever married.

By 1520, Rachel is on a mission for the young King of Scotland. However, Warwick the wizard covets the dangerous Dragonheart brooch that Rachel possesses. The amulet denotes death. After rescuing his former beloved, Liam anoints himself as her protector. To his chagrin, their love still flourishes. He knows that she is royalty and he is a landless orphan. Therefore, nothing good can happen between them. He wants to go back to his wandering lifestyle, but she needs him to stay alive. By staying at her side, he does not realize that she exposes her heart to a different type of terror caused by impossible love.

HIGHLAND ENCHANTMENT, the final novel in Lois Greiman's "Highland Brides" trilogy, is an irresistible, warm Medieval romance. The enchanting story line is filled with action. The lead protagonists are a witty duo, whose struggle between love and duty adds magic to the novel. Fans of Medieval romance will want to peruse all three novels (see HIGHLAND SCOUNDREL, and THE LADY AND THE KNIGHT) for entertaining historical romances.

This review is from: Highland Enchantment (Highland Brides) (Mass Market Paperback)

I think this is an incredibly sweet romance. Liam is not the typically macho hero and his talent for picking pockets, wooing the ladies, and magic only indear him to me. A little talent for larceny never hurt a story and it brings out the rogue in Liam. Yet he never does feel good enough for Rachel, giving that she is highborn and he is a bastard and his father is... Weeell, never mind who his father is. That is Liam's biggest secret and anyway you'll find out when you read this book.
