Summary: 5 Stars
Devil in a Kilt
Sue Ellen Welfonder has hit the jackpot with her book, DEVIL IN A KILT. I was riveted by the story from page one and couldn't put it down until the very end. Yes, its true, I read it in one sitting. Ms. Welfonder has a vast knowledge of what Scotland was, and it shows in her work. I could almost smell the fresh herbs as they were strewn into the rushes.
Linnet MacDonnell is proud, strong and sometimes a bit cunning. Duncan Macenzie is a mysterious, sometimes ill-mannered warrior who has agreed to marry Linnet because of her gift of "sight." The last thing Duncan wants is a beautiful wife, but he knows the moment he lays eyes upon her that he`s been duped. Not only is she comely, but she's good with a dirk. Everything he hoped to avoid.
The very second Linnet lays eyes upon his handsome face- she sees the familiarity- he's the man in her childhood visions- the man with no heart. Scared, but too proud to admit it, Linnet vows to make the best of her situation and form a bond with her new husband. And from the moment she steps foot into the Black Stag's abode, she knows the answer in which he's been seeking. Is the boy born of his late wife, his or someone elses? Linnet knows the truth but refuses to tell him hoping that he will learn to love the boy no matter what blood runs through his veins.
Duncan thinks he's made a huge mistake when he finds himself attracted to the wife he never wished to care for. He pushes his feelings aside trying to convince himself that he cares for Linnet but only because she is a wonderful mother to Robbie. That's what he wanted, right? Nothing more, nothing less. But he can't seem to keep his eyes off her, and he's even a bit amused with the way she defies him at every turn.
Linnet learns there is more to her husband than his gruff exterior, he's a man whose heart has been broken- a heart she intends to heal. But then she sees him near the woods one day, his demeanor totally different, friendly, happy to see her. Her heart soars because she thinks she's finally broken through his protective barriers. But its not him- its his evil half brother Kenneth.
Kenneth hates Duncan and taunts him by saying he's Robbie's true father. He intends to get to Duncan by taking what means most to him- Linnet and Robbie. Can Duncan save them from his brothers evil clutches? Will Linnet tell him the truth about Robbie's parentage? And will she be able to break down Duncan's barriers to forge a never ending love?
You'll have to read to see!
This was such and easy read I enjoyed every minute of it. There were times when I laughed out loud and cheered Linnets boldness, and then there were the times when I wanted to smack Duncan upside the head! I laughed, I cried and on more than one occasion I had to snuggle up in a blanket to stop the chills from the goose bumps running up and down my spine. I couldn't have put this book down even if I had wanted too. It was as if it was glued to my fingers! I highly recommend this book to anyone with a passion for Historical Romances, especially if you are partial to Highland warriors!
Congratulations Sue Ellen Welfonder for giving me such a wonderful story to read!
I give this book 5 out of 5 stars- *****
I look forward to reading more of Sue Ellen's works!
Summary of Devil in a Kilt
Linnet MacDonnell was the youngest of seven sisters, and not the family beauty. With her flame-bright red hair, sharp tongue, and strange gift of second sight, no man wanted her. But the devil would take her. Bartered as a bride to her father's long-sworn enemy, the nobly born Highlander, Duncan MacKenzie of Kintail, she had no choice but to enter a marriage with a man rumored to have murdered his first wife and said to possess neither heart nor soul. Forbidding and proud, Duncan MacKenzie wanted only one thing from his new bride -- to use her special gift to determine if young Robbie was truly his son. He never expected the MacDonnell lass to stubbornly follow her heart, chase away the darkness in his castle with light and laughter, and ignite a raging fire in his blood. How dare she defy him, and tempt a devil like him to feel what he feared most of all --- love!Scotland Books
