Book Description:
Judith Hampton was as beautiful as she was proud and loyal. Her dear Scottish friend from childhood was about to give birth, and Judith had promised to be at her side. But there was another, private reason for the journey from her bleak English home to the Highlands: to meet the father she had never known, the Laird Maclean. Nothing prepared her, however, for the sight of the Scottish barbarian who was to escort her into his land...

Iain Maitland, Laird of his clan, a man more powerfully compelling than any she had ever encountered. In a spirited clash of wills and customs, Judith reveled in the melting bliss of Iain's searching kisses, his passionate caresses. Perplexed by her sprightly defiance, bemused by her tender nature, Iain felt his soul growing into the light and warmth of her love. Surely nothing would wrench her from the affection and trust of Iain and his clan... not even the truth about her father, a devastating secret that could shatter the boldest alliance, and the most glorious of loves!

I absolutely loved this book from the Highlands' series. I read it in two days!
Highly reccomended, especially if you have read the other two Highlands' books before...It was nice to read it a little backwards.

This is, by far, my favorite of Julie Garwood's books. I've read this one so many times that I'm on my 4th copy of the book. Strong hero (love those Highland Lairds) with a great heroine who comes into her own in a big way. Fantasic secondary characters leading into the rest of this great series.

Really good read. Excellent alpha male hero. Independent-minded, feisty heroine. Medieval Scotland setting. Hot sex. Interesting secondary characters. I couldn't put it down -- read the whole thing one Sunday.

Not as great as I anticipated. I love Julie Garwood and a lot of people recommended this book. I just didn't like Judith or Ian, I didn't like there story.
