GIVEAWAY & REVIEW: Seduced by Destiny by Kira Morgan

Description

SWORN TO REVENGE

All her life, Josselin Ancrum has been trained for combat, hoping to exact vengeance for her heroic mother, who was killed fighting the English. When asked to spy for the Scottish Queen, Jossy joyfully accepts. But when a handsome stranger rescues her from sudden danger, his charm distracts her from her mission.

SHROUDED BY SECRECY

On the surface, Drew MacAdam may appear to be nothing more than a carefree champion, but his heart harbors a dark secret: This Highland hero is actually a skilled English soldier with a hatred for war and for the Scottish. Yet from the moment he meets the feisty Jossy, he's captured by her fiercely loyal heart. He's determined the honey-haired lass will be his ultimate prize - until the tragedy of their entwined legacies is revealed. Are these star-crossed lovers to be divided by their pasts? Or will they be...

Seduced by Destiny

MY THOUGHTS
LOVED IT

Part of my favorite part of reading historical romances is that I learn something new.  This outing took on golf, which I had no idea was actually played during the 1500's.  Josselin is headstrong, smart and stubborn and when she meets the wily Drew, their connection leads to a lot of plot twists.  I loved that Josselin is the secret one in her quest to help the Queen.  If you enjoyed Captured by Desire, you will love this next installment.  I received this book at no expense from the publisher in exchange for my honest review.

GIVEAWAY & BLOG TOUR: Captured by Desire by Kira Morgan (Book Review 2010-141)

Product Description

In 16th century Scotland, young Miss Florie Gilder runs away from her drunken foster father to find her real father and her noble heritage. Along the way, she is accused of theft, becomes a fugitive hiding in a forest, and is accidentally wounded by a handsome local huntsman. The huntsman--a Robin-Hood figure who poaches wild game from the landowner's estate to feed the starving poor--carries the beautiful maiden to a church where she is guaranteed 40 days of sanctuary from the law. During that time, he learns her true story, falls in love with her, and helps her in her quest, at the risk of his own life. Smitten with him, she worries more for his survival. But enemies of the state are seeking to overturn the Catholic royals, while a vicious noblewoman is out to destroy Florie.

About the Author

LOVED IT

This is a fantastic story about a strong woman who finds herself and comes to terms with a rogue who is really a sweetheart in disguise.  I was also impressed that the romance (my wording for hot monkey love)  was worked in so that you wanted it and the story wasn't dependent on it.   I fell in love with Rane myself which is always a good sign for a hero in my book.  Florie as the female lead is just wonderful and strong. I loved the fact that it is Florie who wants revenge.   I wanted to be dashing through the forest with both of them.  Of course, you need an evil character to make the whole thing work and Lady Mavis certainly fills the bill.
