My Review UpdatedSummary


Innes Munroe, is "gifted" ever since she was a girl, and touched a family stone and she can feel and hear others thoughts and feelings when touching them. Only a couple of people in the world know of her gifts, because she knows if the truth were to ever come out she would be branded a "witch". When her sister gets married, she travels for the wedding. She runs into a man that she can't resist....Conall Sinclair. A war hero who has his own scars. Conall is the Earl of Caithness and he is content with his "wolf pup" and his solitude. But he can't seem to get the beautiful Innes out of his mind. She is a mystery to him, one that he wants to unravel more than anything. But he soon learns that she will be the one woman to heal the wounds of the past and give him hope once again...

Plot and Story Line


Taming The Highlander, is the second book in the latest series by May McGoldrick. Now its been a while since I have picked this author up, but I have such fond memories of this author, since she was one of the first romance authors I fell in love with and she was the first author I read with highlanders and I just can't get enough of those kilted men now. I had heard quite a few good things about this series, so I knew I had to get it and was granted a ARC copy and so thrilled for the opportunity. Now just opening this book up with the first few chapters reminded me why I fell in love with this author in the first place. She knows how to write highland romances, and I love the mythical tones to this story. The romance between these two is what really got to me here. I just loved seeing them together and seeing the way they slowly fall in love. Its more of a slow and steady romance. I loved the Wolf...he was so cute. He is still a puppy but still tame and he just takes to Innes immediately. He added some fun to the story. There is a more serious tone to the plot though. Innes is living a secret and Conall is a bit of a recluse. We have a bit of matchmaking by Conall's brother and Innes sister acting like their marriage is falling apart---when there are obvious hints that its not true with them sneaking into each others bedrooms at night hehe Then we have a mysterious death that gets solved which surprised me on the real truth behind it. We also see how this series connects with seeing the couple from the first book becoming involved in this one. There is such a sweet and poignant feel to this story with some rich undertones of history and culture that doesn't overshadow the romance!!
I love you, Conall, more than life and eternity and everything that may lay in between

The Cover
