Resumen del Editor

A new series from Keira Montclair!

Geoffrey MacGriffin of Clan Matheson could not believe he’d been bested by a female archer. As a new guardsman who’d recently joined the clan, Grif needed to prove himself to the visiting commander, the formidable Logan Ramsay, in order to be selected for an important mission for King Robert the Bruce. Grif drew his dagger to teach the annoying lass a lesson—that men are always smarter and more skillful than women. Unfortunately, things didn’t turn out as he had hoped. And on top of his humiliation in the mock battle, he was gleefully informed that the lass he’d tried to kill was not only Logan’s great niece, but also the daughter of Clan Matheson’s chieftain.

Isla Matheson had earned the reputation of being one of the best archers in all of Scotland—but she hated battle. She was not the least bit interested in going on a mission that took her away from Black Isle and her family. Not for the laird, not even for the Bruce himself. Nor was she interested in any lad, despite her scandalous cousin urging her to at least try kissing. Even if she were curious about such a distasteful activity, the very last man she’d choose to kiss would be the sore-loser guard who insisted men were superior to women in all things. Funny, she was pretty sure she had won their challenge….

Too bad they were both chosen for the king’s mission…and ordered to work together to infiltrate Carlisle Castle as spies, searching for a man with the cruelest reputation in all of England. The result was a clash and adventure neither Grif nor Isla could have predicted—involving capture, torture, and…aye, a bit of kissing. By the end, they’d each learned an important lesson that made them see the other in a whole new light. The only question was…would they survive to confess their growing love?

the character descriptions .

This picked up from a previous series which I enjoyed. good to know what is happening to their kids.

fabulous

loved the story and can not wait for the next story. It a cliff hanger

The characters were delightful

I liked mostly the strong female characters
It’s nice to see the females as good hunters, strong, bright, very worthy.
I would highly recommend this to any age group mindful of the graphic sexual parts. There might be limits on a younger age.

Excellent Start to the Series

I love the characters in this story and look forward to reading more about them in future books. They are well-developed, insightful, skilled and full of wisdom. Although the main characters have a HEA there’s a cliffhanger about another character that will follow in the next book. I usually hate cliffhangers but this one is okay because I’m definitely getting the next book.

narrator and storyline

I have usually loved books from this author in the past, however, the storyline for this book seemed juvenile and I did not like the narrator for the book. I will listen to the next in the series to give it one more. nance. I hope the narrator has been changed.

Ancient History + Feminism Does Not Equal Romance

Kudos to author for strong female characters. I loved that they were skilled. However, the on and on and on about “women are smarter than men” was too arrogantly feminist for my taste. The male lead was emasculated in my eyes. It wasn’t romantic.

I myself am a strong skilled woman, but I’m happy in my romantic life with an equally but differently strong and intelligent man. This story’s placement in history made the “isolated group that believed that women were more intelligent” was not believable.

Also, the story started to drag on with small dramas… even after they both declared their love. More sex scenes didn’t improve it.

The narrator did a credible job.
