Lady Andrena
MacFarlan always knew she was different from everyone else. She could sense
other people’s most innermost desires and it was a power she doesn’t like at
times. She knows her duty-to marry the man who will help her father regain his
rightful place as chiefdom of their clan but Andrena doesn’t anticipate the one
man who would steal her heart and ignite flames of passion between them. Magnus
Galbraith is injured and has never met a woman like Lady Adrena. She can
enflame him in many ways while calming him down. An unusual yet beautiful
woman, Magnus finds he is drawn to her in ways that consumes him even as he
tries to keep his distance from her. But as Magnus finds a way to revenge his
brother and protect his king, Andrena could be the one person to tilt the
battle in their favor or the one that will cause much chaos.
Ms. Scott
delivers a story full of enthralling characters, a lush storyline filled with
magical powers, mysteries and more. With the stroke of her pen, this author
delivers a story that will intrigue you till the very end. I loved the fantasy
or magical end of this story immensely. Sometimes historical stories are very
dry, filled with facts and whatnot but in THE LAIRD’S CHOICE, you get magical
power that can doom a country or be its salvation. It was an interesting twist
in the storyline that had me on the edge of my seat.
The
characters are well written, intriguing and at times, feel like they could come
alive at any given moment, to step off the pages and into my living room. The
author delivers two main characters that steal your heart right from the first
page. Magnus is strong, on a mission to avenge his brother and a woman who
could be his biggest ally or his ultimate downfall. The sparks flying between
Magnus and Andrena had me eager to see if they could overcome the odds in the
end and be together. I was also very curious about Andrena’s power. The way the
author portrayed it in the story had me wondering if the heroine would be able
to harness that power or would it consume her in the end. The secondary
characters kept the story moving along nicely and there was a few that I hope
to see in future books of the Lairds of the Loch series.
THE LAIRD’S
CHOICE is the introduction to the Lairds of the Loch series and it is one story
you don’t want to miss. Full of magic, passion and more, Ms. Scott delivers a
spellbinding story to lose yourself into on a cold winter’s afternoon. I look
forward to seeing where the author goes in this series in the next book.
