I think the best character in the second installment of the Brides of Wishmore is Breccan. He appealed to me not only because of his physical attributes but mostly because he had an insecure side to him that made him human and more believable than some other super confident hero with an ego to match. I was glad to see that Tara had matured, and I was eager to devour their romantic dance. But it was slow in developing, and their consummation came so late in the story without enough scenes to create sexual tension. I want lots of sexy bits! With a virile and considerate man like Breccan, I wanted a full-blown romance that he deserved. His story started out that way, but ultimately came up short in the end. Their shared bedtime stories were sweet moments, though, which helped to develop some intimacy between them. Overall, a decent read, but be prepared for an abrupt ending. Three stars.

I enjoyed this one. Wasn't sure I would like Tara at first, but she matured throughout the book. Great read.
When her father hit his limit with his spendthrift ways, Lady Tara Davidson was sold (in marriage) to Laird Breccan Campbell. Horrified, Tara knew the Campbells to be the most despised clan of the area. Tara wasn't particularly surprised that her father married her off to pay his gambling debts. However, she thought herself still in love with Ruary, a horse master. Ruary had recently run away with another woman (Jane) and Tara is still grieving.
Breccan is a charmer who quickly realizes he has fallen in love with Tara. Rather than rush her, Breccan tries to understand Tara. Before he married Tara, Breccan agreed to a horse race that could bring his family's financial situation to ruin. Tara is horrified about the dangerous race until she meets Owen, Breccan's cousin. Owen is a slimy lizard who will stoop to anything to win the race.

This has been the most fun of the series for me so far.
Love the play between Tara and Breccan. The storyline is quick and has great dialogue and funny laugh out loud moments.
A couple of twists and turns and lots of learning to trust
