There are a lot of Buchanan family members and friends to introduce to Evina, which detracts from the ostensibly central mystery of who wants Evina dead.
As a widow who is still a virgin, Evina is a cliché, and her falling in love with Conran is predictable. A cheerful jack-of-all-trades, Conran knows enough healing arts to keep up the charade and treat Evina’s father. She needs Rory Buchanan to heal her ill father, so she hits him over the head and drags him unconscious all the way back home-not realizing she actually has Rory’s brother Conran in tow. When headstrong Lady Evina Maclean needs something, she takes action regardless of the consequences.
Sands’s seventh Highland Brides historical (after The Highlander’s Promise) is only satisfying in the context of the series.
