So, I put aside the HR Genre and found myself delving into stories with more substance. I had grown weary of your typical HR, as I found they were repeated story lines, all jumbling together and becoming more and more cheese as my reading tastes advanced. Now this is what a historical romance is all about. This book has worked its way onto my favorites list for sure!
Or should I say one heck of a cliffhanger?Īll in all, the action is fast paced and the romance will get one all hot and bothered.
I really enjoyed that Canham made our characters "dislike/hate" each other for awhile before finally coming to some sort of happy ending. However, there are several wonderful and endearing characters that set about for the young Sassenach to begin to understand her Scottish warrior. What follows is a series of events in which the reader begins to wonder if Catherine will ever grow up. Horror of horrors, Alex plans on heading back to savage Scotland and Catherine believes that it is a prison. It is isn't long before the two are wed and Catherine soon learns that her husband is actually the Scottish outlaw, Alexander Cameron. Of course, Catherine uses the young man to get her British soldier jealous with dire results. Catherine meets her match in spirit and fire in the young merchant Raefer Montgomery and the chemistry between the two is undeniable. It was my gut reaction to detest this character because she seems so very stereotypical of every other romance heroine ever introduced in fiction. The story beings with us meeting the snobbish and high and mighty English lady named Catherine "Kitty" Ashbrooke" on the day of her eighteenth birthday. The story centers around the 45 uprising and the return of Bonnie Prince Charlie to Scotland. I am so glad that I took the plunge and started reading.īecause once I started, I just couldn't put it down! "The Pride of Lions" has been recommended to me time and time again by a handful of people.
