In 1535 during a battle between Scottish clans, the mysterious warrior Hunter saves the life of an unconscious Lachlan "Rouge Fox" MacGowan. Lachlan's brothers tease him as how tenderly Hunter carried him from the battlefield to the safety of Evermyst as if they were lovers. Even though he resents owing anyone anything, Lachlan, vowing to pay his debt, wants to thank the warrior who probably saved his life.

In 1536 Lachlan still owes the Hunter, who rejects everything the Rogue Fox offers. Lachlan has become intrigued with the warrior and swears he will learn the secret of this great fighter. When he does uncover the secret he is shocked beyond belief, but beginning to understand his fascination with the Hunter while he observes the warrior talking with an enemy while evil stalks Evermyst.

THE WARRIOR BRIDE may be the strongest of Lois Greiman's Scottish romances as the cast makes for quite an exciting tale. The Hunter is a wonderful warrior with secrets that will surprise the audience. Lachlan is obsessive to make remittance to his savior until he uncovers the secret and changes his obsession. The secondary characters add depth to a tale that will provide much satisfaction to readers of sixteenth century romances.

...but it took a long time to reach the plot (page 260, chapter 19, to be exact). The characters were interesting - at times, humorous - but the heart of the story lies within the last few chapters. I would have liked to have seen the suspense and action carried throughout the tale, not just the conclusion. Too much time is spent on the heroine's journey from Point A to Point B.

The hero of the story is fantastic, the heroine leaves alot to be desired. The story is a little far-fetched (woman poses as a male warrior and no one figures it out until she's naked?)
'Hunter' is a cold, undeveloping character. It was hard to believe that he fell in love with her or that she even liked him.

I thought this book was good, but i was confused. durring most of it i was like wtf?? like how she was raped but at the same time she saved the king or why she was a warrior - because of her 'uncle' or because she was raped and since she was why didnt she talk about it or why didnt it bother her when he touched her. i mean its great that it didnt i was just concused -as i said before. I just wonder how she knew she counldnt have kids or if she just said that. small things like that, aside from that i liked how strong she was and the guy character was really lovable. i kept wondering if he was a vigin though cause he was so akward around women. lol. anyway its worth the read maybe ill have to read it again to figure out how her thoughts kept progressing. i didnt understand why she kept saying she was going to seduce that old guy but that wasnt really her plan and if what she was doing was trying to protect his home why not tell him and then why did she think the king was in danger. Im sry im giving away the story, it anyone gets it let me know cause i didnt. but like i said its good and worth the read maybe im just having one of thos weeks lol

Finally a book about a woman who can wield a sword just as well as men, who is intelligent - outwitting the men. I love books where in a time when women were viewed as property, they shine out as being equal or even better to their male counterparts. It's a great read. Ending went a little too quickly.
