Helpful Score: 1
Kind of boring.
This book is burdened with a difficult premise for a romance novel: The hero and heroine already know and love each other. They were kept apart by circumstances but are now together - right from the start. So where to go as a storyteller? Unfortunately Jennifer Ashley doesn't solve this writing conundrum in any satisfactory way. She puts the pair together and then nothing much happens except each person having fantasies about the other for about 60% of the book. It wasn't the most engrossing story. And the finale and explanation for the shenanigans is silly and makes no sense. There is a cute scene at the end with all the Highlanders swimming but I'm not sure that makes up for 300 pages of "not much happening".
