bandherbooks 's review for:

The Highlander by Kerrigan Byrne
4.0

Continuing her dark Victorian Rebels series with a lady rescued from wrongful imprisonment in a horrid sanitarium and a sexy laird struggling to defeat the demons of his past, this is the strongest book yet.

Byrne exposes the dangerous position of women in the Victorian Age with Mena, who is forcibly and wrongfully placed in a sanitarium once her husband realizes he will not be able to get an heir out of her. Rescued by characters from the previous books in the series, she is placed as a governess in the highland estate of Liam MacKenzie. Liam has no idea Mena is a "lady," but falls for her as he struggles to overcome his own demons. Can these two damaged souls learn to trust each other?
