About this ebook

Maya Banks, the New York Times bestselling author of romance and romantic suspense has captivated readers with her steamy Scottish historical novels, perfect for fans of Julie Garwood. In Seduction of a Highland Lass, an indomitable Highland warrior is caught between loyalty and forbidden love.
 
Fiercely loyal to his elder brother, Alaric McCabe leads his clan in the fight for their birthright. Now he is prepared to wed for duty, as well. But on his way to claim the hand of Rionna McDonald, daughter of a neighboring chieftain, he is ambushed and left for dead. Miraculously, his life is saved by the soft touch of a Highland angel, a courageous beauty who will put to the test his fealty to his clan, his honor, and his deepest desires.

An outcast from her own clan, Keeley McDonald was betrayed by those she loved and trusted. When the wounded warrior falls from his horse, she is drawn to his strong, lean body. The wicked glint in his green eyes ignites a passion that will follow them back to Alaric’s keep, where their forbidden love draws them deeper into the pleasures of the flesh. But as conspiracy and danger circle closer, Alaric must make an impossible choice: Will he betray his blood ties for the woman he loves?

I think Maya Banks is a pretty good writer but this book is still a bit meh to me due to the storylines. To summarize the book: The heroine saved the wounded hero and they both fell in lust with each other. No other reasons to fall in love other than they're both good looking and they got hot in each other's presence. Both the hero and the heroine shows little to no depth - which makes me question their said 'love'. It's all about he/she 's the one for me for them but I see little to no reasons at all (other than lust) that's binding them together in terms of feelings. Yes, the aurhor did try to make hima appear like a responsible hero while the heroine was painted as extremely kindhearted but everything was brushed down as simply facts with little to make me connect with them. The author simply didn't bother making them humans, they are simply a warrior and an angel.

A great read I love this book and have read it more than once. I so want this author to write more like this and her contemporary romances She has written, they are so full of love and trials stemming from misunderstandings, just like hard times in some of our lives. They give hope to hopeless situations. I highly recommend this book and the others written in this era along with her contemporary romances.
