Summary
The first time Thomas MacGowan saw Elizabeth Douglas, he thought that she was a princess. To the son of the castle blacksmith, the daughter of the powerful lord of Douglas might as well have been. Despite their differences in rank, they become inseparable - until Thom confesses his love, and the humiliation of realizing that Elizabeth has never considered him a potential suitor drives him to battle.
Elizabeth is devastated. She never meant to hurt Thom, but her only hope for security is to marry for the betterment of her clan. When the English capture her younger brother, she turns to the quiet, steady former protector who can climb anything. But the merciless, muscled warrior is not the companion she remembers. Though Thom has made it clear that he wants nothing to do with Elizabeth, can he truly refuse the alluring woman who makes his heart race?

Best in series. Truly 5 stars.
THIS is the adventurous, enthralling, heart-warming, steamy, Scottish, historical romance we crave and seldom get! It doesn't get any better within this series or genre. Ms. McCarty should, herself, be knighted. Well done! Worth every farthing.

AWESOME book!
It had been a while since I ventured into this series, and oh, how I missed it! I ADORED this story, and I've always wondered about the mysterious Striker, so I was excited about this story. It certainly didn't disappoint. This was a fabulous book and I can't wait to check out the next one!
Antony was a new narrator for me, and I wasn't sure about his voice at first, but I really liked his voice, and his accents. I can't wait to hear the next story!

Great Series
I have read every book in this series, and I believe it to be one of the best fiction based on history series I have ever had the privilege to read. This book was as good as all the rest, while being just a little bit different. It was about people who are family and friends to one of the main characters, but worked it's way back to the general theme of the series at the end of the book. Monica McCarty never fails to deliver.
