Highland Hellcat

This book is loosely connected to 'To conquer a highlander', but can be read on its own. As a third daughter, Brina has been promised to the church when she was born. As a result she was raised to be self-sufficient, not very womanly, and she was always kept away from men. But when her older sister takes a lover and is found out, the man she was promised to solves the problem by kidnapping Brina: He wants to marry her instead. Brina finds herself in a conflict: She is strongly attracted to Connor and finds that she enjoys a more earthly life. But she's honorable, too, and she doesn't want to break her father's word. What started out as a way to force a promised alliance and get a pure bride, too, soon turns into love for Connor. So when Brina is kidnapped by another laird and might end up a nun after all, both will have to fight for their love. This is a well-written romance novel with a good plot, interesting characters and a realistic historical background. Highly recommended!
