- The Highlander's Christmas Bride
2
In bestselling author Vanessa Kelly's irresistible Clan Kendrick series, Christmas in the Highlands means family, celebration-and for one brother, the beginning of a passionate adventure . . . Being thrown over by the man she expected to marry was humiliating enough. Now that Donella Haddon, grandniece of the Earl of Riddick, has also proven a failure as a nun, she has no choice but to return to her family's estate. The brawny Highlander sent to escort her is brash, handsome, and the only thing standing between Donella and a gang of would-be kidnappers. But the scandal in her past can't be so easily outrun . . . Wealthy widower Logan Kendrick was expecting to meet a plain, pious spinster-not a gorgeous, sharp-tongued lass who can hold her own in any ambush. Though she's known as the Flower of Clan Graham, Donella is no shrinking violet. In fact, she might be the perfect woman to bring happiness back to his lonely little son's life, just in time for Christmas. But first he must protect her from ugly gossip and a mysterious threat-and convince her that their wild, unexpected desire is heaven sent. Contains mature themes.

Scarred in body and soul by war, Royal suddenly has a purpose-caring for an innocent babe and thereby helping the woman he can't stop loving. But when Ainsley ultimately returns to Scotland, determined to be a real mother to her child in spite of the risk, there's only one solution: marriage. And only one likely outcome: surrendering to the desire that's simmered between them for so long, no matter how dangerous it may be . . . Contains mature themes.

Being rescued by a burly Highlander just adds to her humiliation. Nor is he content with rescuing her just once. Even when Sabrina travels to Edinburgh as part of King George's entourage, Graeme Kendrick is there, interfering, exasperating, and so very tempting . . . Once notorious for being the most unruly Kendrick brother, Graeme now runs dangerous missions for the King's spymaster. Yet nothing has prepared him for Sabrina. The only child of a wealthy earl, and the pampered goddaughter of the king himself, she is stubborn, impetuous, and far too good for him. He doesn't deserve her, but he can protect her and then send her safely back home. But the bonny Sassenach has her own ideas-and a plan for seduction that no red-blooded Highlander could resist . . .

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It was okay. Sadly the weakest of the series. I didn’t get the heat between the H and H. Author could have played up the music thing more and the relationship developing more. Love Angus and all the rest of the Kendricks and the H’s family is funny but the plot was pretty weak and it really didn’t sparkle. I loooooove the rest of the series and hope Kelly comes in with a story about Ainsley and Royal’s daughter Tyra!!
