Highland Temptation: A Highland Knights Novel
by Jennifer Haymore
This review was originally posted on Addicted To Romance
Lady Emilia has always been a devoted daughter despite the horrible abuse her father dishes out to her on a regular basis especially ever since her mother passed away. But when she learns that her father has been behind a traitorous plot against the king and England, being found out by her father and whipped---she heads to the only place she knows of safety, The home of the Highland Knights and there is one knight in particular that she wants to see more than anyone, Colin Stirling. Colin suffers from the torments of war, having been tortured by the French for information, he still feels the demons both day and night. But even though he feels tormented, he also can't deny his instinct to protect Emilia and take care of her. When she pleads with Colin for his help specifically, he can't deny her. Colin and Emilia go into hiding, forced on the run, hiding from her father and trying to get the truth from Emilia so justice can be brought against her father and the men conspiring with him. But will Emilia and Colin's love be enough against the evil machinations of her father?
Highland Temptation just might be my favorite one of the series, the romance was so sweet and compelling and quite a tear jerker with the poingnant moments this pair evokes in the reader. Jennifer Haymore does write some of the most stunning love stories, and Highland Temptation is one of her best books!! It sets off with out heroine, just having been severely whipped by her father and coming to the Highland Knights for help. At first she isn't quite ready, to reveal everything she knows about her father. This is what I loved about her character, is her loyalty to family. Even though her father has been abusive both physically and emotionally, she doesn't want him to die a traitors death either. But we do see how she comes to terms with it and does the right thing. Our hero is suffering from a severe form of PTSD from his time of being tortured. What is most remarkable is how Emilia handles the situation when the past haunts him. She fights for him and doesn't back down in aiding him when he needs it. This pair were so remarkable together, because even though it seems like their relationship is rushed...it doesn't feel that way at all. I loved seeing the way the story flowed together and the workings of the plot that add some mystery, adventure and suspense.
Oh how I love it....my favorite of the series so far. I really like the purple.
Highland Temptation is a roller coaster ride of emotion, love and adventure! A love story you can immerse yourself in. A HEARTWARMING ROMANCE!!
