Scozia, 1098 - Per vendicarsi del misterioso Connor, che con le proprie visioni profetiche ha causato la morte dei suoi famigliari, Moira si spaccia per una delle fanciulle che gli vengono donate come schiave dal potente Lord Diarmid e finisce per fare l'amore con lui. L'esperienza la turba profondamente: mai avrebbe immaginato che quell'uomo potesse suscitare in lei un desiderio così ardente. Le mani di Connor hanno svelato parti sensibili del suo corpo che poi la bocca ha assaporato; la sua lingua le ha sfiorato la pelle suscitando sensazioni sconosciute e deliziose. Ma la sete di vendetta rischia di soffocare ciò che i sensi le suggeriscono, e Moira deve decidere se ascoltare la ragione o la passione.Primo romanzo della serie "Storm" di Terri BrisbinPer gli amanti degli storici intrisi di magia e antiche leggendo This book was filled with many layers of complex emotions. Anger overtaken by forgiveness. Fear overtaken by bravery. Despair overtaken by love. The hero, Connor, is very affectionate. I enjoyed the sensitive side of his nature. Moira is full of a bravery that covers a tender and broken heart. The relationship between Connor and Moira blossoms slowly and with great passion. My favorite part of this book was how Ms. Brisbin describes the details of Moira's slavery. She is cherished as evidenced by her fluffy pallet in the corner of Conner's chamber and the small stool he gives her to sit on while her broken leg heals. The collar about her neck is loose and the key to it rests beneath her bedding. It is a romantic and very erotic setting. The ending of the book was a triumph of love over adversity. I recommend this read to anyone who enjoys a tale of the Isle.

Not quite as smooth as some of her HQN work but still worth the read.
