c1100 tale set in medieval Scotland. Interesting plot and subplots of intrique and romance. First of a series - the second book is Ransome. If you like historical romance novels this is far above ordinary. First published in 1992. This paperback is 2005.

She's put the gut feeling in words!
I certainly loved this book, although, I really haven't read a Garwood book that I didn't like. What I most enjoyed was the gut feeling of Love that Iain and Judith had for each other was so very well told in this book. My favorite line was when Iain decided he would marry Judith, he never proposed, he just told her he was going to keep her! Enjoy the book!

Don't know how I'd missed this little jewel, thought I'd read all Julie Garwood's books. She never disappoints! I loved the story, the girl's friendship and the double names. Worth re-reading if its been awhile.

Travel back to where women were "mylady" and mean were "Lords" in this great romance novel. A search for truth, finds passion and true love, and as always...forbidden.

Judith Hampton promised to travel to Scotland to be with her best friend, Frances Catherine, when she gave birth to her first child. The women had been friends since childhood and had promised to always be there for each other. When a group of Scottish Warriors arrive in England to escort Judith on her trip, she meets their Laird, Iain Maitland. He is big and scary, but Judith is drawn to him. Iain doesn't like the English and hoped that Judith would break her promise to his sister-in-law Frances Catherine. But when she is eager to get to Scotland, he has no choice but to escort her.

Another wonderful historical romance by Julie Garwood. Judith and Iain strike sparks off of each other from their first meeting. She falls in love with him right away and suspects that he is falling for her too. But she must make sure he never learns the secret she is keeping from him and the other members of the Maitland Clan. My rating: 5 Stars.
