No swooning missy here!

Isobel Fraser saw her sister wed to Ramsay MacGowan. After that though, she felt as if she did not belong. She left to make her own way in the world. Isobel ended up as a cook and waitress at an out-of-the-way inn, the Red Lion. She was fine until Laird MacGowan walked through the door. She wanted nothing to do with Gilmour of the MacGowans! There was no room in her life for marriage or love. She had other matters that needed tending. Gilmour was surprised to find headstrong Isobel working at the Red Lion. All maids swooned over him, except her. In fact, she had already spurned his attention. But Gilmour was determined to wed her and was prepared to go toe-to-toe with the spirited lass! ***** No swooning heroine here! Isobel is a take charge woman with intelligence, common sense, and street savvy! Watching these two lock horns was an absolute pleasure! Extremely recommended! ***** Reviewed by Detra Fitch.

Something to be desired

I was really surprised by this book. The beginning was sort of slow for my tastes and i never really understood all the dynamics at work here. I suspect it has something to do with the fact that this is a sequal. Some character motivation was unclear but otherwise i loved these characters. Isobel and Gilmour really belong together. I loved his secret. You will too. This is not your typical formula romance. It jumps out of the box. But I must say the ending left something to be desired and that's all i'm gonna say!! Buy this and see for yourself!!

A fantastic romance

In 1535 Scotland, every lass desires Gilmour MacGowan except apparently, Isobel Frasier, twin sister of his brother's wife. Though he can have just about everyone, Gilmour wants the one he cannot have as he admires Isobel's independence and fire. She rejects his advances though secretly inside her heart and soul she covets Gilmour, but believes that she must forgo love and relationships because her clan needs her now. Additionally, he may be the enemy. Gilmour begins his quest to win Isobel's heart, but soon concludes he already has that just like she has his. Instead, he realizes he must overcome her obstinate beliefs that personal relationships will interfere with her helping her clan. He knows he must prove he cares for her clan as much as she does and that together they can defeat any foe. However, Gilmour will soon learn how much he underestimated the strength and determination of his beloved. Though characteristic of a sixteenth century Scottish romance, MACGOWAN BETROTHAL is a strong tale because the key two players provide readers with a humane look at the era. The story line is fast-paced and Gilmour is a mighty male star that female readers will happily adore. However the stalwart lead female protagonist owns the plot as her actions, compassion, and inner strength moves the audience as easily as she moves the tale forward. Lois Greiman has written a wonderful Highland Rogues novel that entertains her fans just as her previous stories have done too....
