Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Starred Review. The conclusion to Potter's 16th century-set Scottish Highland Trilogy (following Beloved Stranger) gives proof to what her fans may already know: Potter keeps getting better with every outing. Sparkling with high seas drama and tender romance, the story of the eldest Maclean brother, Patrick, opens six years into his imprisonment aboard a Spanish slave ship. Following Patrick's plan, he and his fellow oarsmen successfully mutiny, putting him on the route home to Scotland, where he can find out what's become of his family and claim his inheritance. His plan is complicated, however, when he discovers two women among the passengers: the ship owner's daughter, Juliana Mendoza, and her maid, Carmita. Honor-bound to protect them despite his searing hatred for Juliana's father, Patrick keeps the two from the rapacious designs of the other mutineers. Initially distrustful, they're both awakened, soon enough, to the kindness and bravery in each other. Upon reaching Scotland, both have given themselves over to mutual passion, despite Juliana's impending nuptials to a powerful English viscount, a union she can only abandon by imperiling her mother. Potter has an expert ability to invest in fully realized characters and a strong sense of place without losing momentum in the details, making this novel a pure pleasure. (Apr.)

From Booklist

The concluding book in Potter's Scottish Highlands series tells the story of the oldest brother, Patrick MacLean, who has been sold into slavery as an oarsman on a Spanish ship. Patrick leads a mutiny only to discover, as he sails to Scotland, that Juliana Mendoza is onboard, destined to wed a stranger in an arranged political marriage. Patrick brings her to his ancestral Scottish home, distraught at the thought of Juliana married to the cruel Earl of Chadwick, or dead if she marries a MacLean because of the family curse. What he does not count on is Juliana's daring plan. With her usual skill, Potter offers as much satisfaction in this story as in its predecessors, Beloved Imposter (2004) and Beloved Stranger (2006).

4.0 out of 5 stars Mutineer steals galleon and lady's heart, April 28, 2007
By Melissa (USA) - See all my reviews
  
Patrick Maclean has been a prisoner/oarsman on a Spanish Galleon for years. Finally on a voyage to England, he executes a perfect mutiny. Well, almost perfect. The oarsmen overpower the crew but he has the Captain's niece Juliana Mendoza on board, a witness to the mutiny. The crew want to defile her but Patrick, now captain of the ship, decides she will travel unmolested to his home in Scotland. Patrick desires to become laird. He has been missing for eight years. He needs to save the crew from certain hanging and only with the assistance of his clan can he accomplish this.

Juliana is terrified of the mutineers but strangely attracted to Patrick. At first, she sees him as a blood thirsty killer but as their voyage toward Scotland progresses she recognizes him as an honorable man trying to reclaim his life.

When they arrive in Scotland, Patrick and Juliana allow passion to flow between them. There are many obstacles they must overcome, not the least of which is Juliana's impending marriage to a cruel English nobleman and the political intrigue engulfing Scotland. Additionally, Patrick must hide a ship and 100 mutineers. Ms Potter never lets these plots overshadow the growing romance between Patrick and Juliana. In fact, the novel never gets bogged in details. Her writing style is fluid and she really drew me in every time there was an action sequence. She seamlessly weaves high drama and emotion during many great action filled scenes.

The secondary characters were wonderful, each with very unique personalities. I would give this book five stars except for one slight imperfection. I would have loved to see the main characters spend more time together. Of course, Patrick was busy sailing a ship and fighting political intrigue, but even in Scotland while they both resided in the castle, they never spent as much time conversing with each other as they did with the other characters. I hope Patricia Potter continues this series. I would love to read a story about Patrick's fellow oarsmen Diego.

5.0 out of 5 stars wonderful historical romance, April 5, 2007
For six years Patrick Maclean has been held prisoner on a Spanish slave ship waiting for an opportunity to escape. He finally sees the right moment and leads a successful mutiny with his plan to go straight to his Scottish clan.

However, still a gentleman in spite of his horrendous mistreatment, Patrick learns two women were on board the vessel so he assumes their protection from his peers. When he learns their identities are the daughter of the ship's owner Juliana Mendoza and her maid Carmita, he wants to hand the former to the mutineers as he loathes her father for what he did to him. Still he does the right thing by both women though Juliana does not trust him. On the way to Scotland they make love and fall in love, but she is engaged to another aristocrat; to break their upcoming nuptials would prove lethal to her mother.

The third Maclean early sixteenth century romance (see BELOVED STRANGER and BELOVED IMPOSTER) is a superior historical tale starring two strong characters whose love is the worst that could happen to either of them. Patrick is terrific as he cherishes the daughter of the man he loathes; Juliana is trapped in an untenable dilemma caused by her father as she loves her Patrick, but must marry someone else for the sake of her mother. Subgenre fans will gain immense pleasure from all three Maclean tales.
