Customer Reviews

Duncan Kerr Seemed Almost Too Modern but...

This is one of the best books around. The story was so interesting and realistic. I just loved Miriam. I think I'm going to find it hard to read Malcolm's story, though. Here, he is just a little boy, terrorized really horribly by a brat named Alpin, who ends up as his love interest in his own story. I just can't seem to take seriously Malcolm in an adult role as yet, so it's best if I leave it on the shelf for now. But this book, has everything! It's GREAT!

Zorro in Scotland

This book by Arnette Lamb, "The Border Lord", is at the same timefunny, serious, and titillating. This is a must-read for anyone interested in historical romances, Scottish or otherwise. I have 2 of them just in case a friend needs to have a light spot in the day. In fact, the humor even got a chuckle out of my hubby!

Border Lord

THIS BOOK IS THE BEST!!! Duncan is hilarious, while Miriam is sweetly befuddled as well as earnestly trying to help, wonderfully, gloriously, swept off her feet by Duncan's "alter ego." Or is his day persona his "alter ego?" A laugh riot a minute, but a word of warning. The entire comprehensive complexity of the humor is capable of being truly, fully appreciated by completing two or three reads. And, yes, this book leaves the reader with a desire to read again and again. So be ready to crack it One More Time! My recommendation? GET THIS BOOK. And watch for the others in the set: Chieftain and The Maiden of Inverness.

Border Lord

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It did the things that I love books to do, it made me laugh, shed a tear and sigh whilst reading the wonderful, very nicely written love scenes. It's the first book I have read by Arnette Lamb but it certainly won't be my last!!

Wonderful book!

As if the cover isn't enough to make you fall head over heels for the hero, Arnette Lamb manages a perfect sizzle and pop love story, with humor and sensuality written all over it. Duncan is hillarious, posing as a foppish fool who is fond of peacocks in order to convince Miriam the Diplomat that he's innocent. But at night he's the Border Lord, the handsome and mysterious and most deliciously yummy "ghost." The only tweak in this book is the ending, which is a bit dissapointing and a little contrived. Still, the rest of the book is wonderful and makes up for it in all other aspects. Read this book, of not all of Ms. Lamb's others, because they're absoloutly priceless!
