An Englishwoman, a Scottish laird ... a love that will surpass all borders. A sumptuous romance in the spirit of Diana Gabaldon and Darry Fraser.

1402, the Anglo-Scottish border.

Lynelle Fenwick is the daughter of an English lord, but was deemed cursed when her mother didn't survive childbirth and has been an outcast all her life. Raised by the village healer, who has since died, Lynelle truly is alone. When her younger half-brother is captured during a Scottish raid, she sees a last chance to redeem herself to the father who rejected her, and offers to be held captive in his place.

Across the turbulent border, Lynelle strikes a bargain with William Kirkpatrick, laird of Closeburn. She will spend two weeks inside the clan's castle tending William's younger brother who is in need of a healer's care. The laird has his own family curse to deal with, along with a deep distrust of healers - and Lynelle has exaggerated her healing skills to obtain her half-brother's freedom.

Despite their differences, William and Lynelle are drawn to each other ... then an unexpected foe threatens to divide them forever ... Enemies by birth and circumstance, they can only succeed together.

About the Author

Allison Butler is an author of Scottish historical romance. She spent her early years in country New South Wales building pretend castles with hay bales and leaping white posts with her army of two older sisters and a younger brother. Many years later, with her mother's influence, she discovered a passion for words and history, read her first historical romance and was inspired to create her own. She writes by day and cares for the elderly by night. Her love of travel has given her the gift of many amazing sights but none more heart - stirring than the rugged beauty of Scotland. Allison lives in a small town in New South Wales, Australia, with her very own Scottish hero, two beautiful daughters and a Jack Russell named Wallace. She loves travelling, dancing like no - one's watching and seeing the sights from the back of her husband's motorcycle. --This text refers to the paperback edition.

Great read

Reviewed in Australia on 26 May 2016

Love this rather sad tale. It is well written, and really shows how our fears can control our lives. It's a story I could read more then once. Would have liked it to have had a longer ending. It ended to abruptly. All in all well worth reading.

A great read on a dreary day, nice to take away and read on a break. Nothing too dramatic, just a good HEA read. Only complaint is that the story ends very abruptly.

Cover: Awesome. Book: Solid

Reviewed in Australia on 26 September 2015

I'm going with a three point five on this one. I didn't mind it. Another Scottish Highlander romance, which I think makes about four in about a week. At least I feel like reading them though and I am not hating on them!! I must have needed a hit of romance after all the erotica I have been reading that seemed to have me in a funk for a while.

Firstly, full marks for the sexy cover. A broad, muscled, naked back plus kilt equals YUM in my book. So kudos on cover choice.

Storyline was decent and readable. Characters were like-able. The connection between the characters was average. As I have said in previous Highlander reviews, the standard (Outlander, Gabaldon) is high, very high :) So three point five stars for a solid, readable romance.

This is a keeper

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 October 2014

The blurb on this book was of no service to this book and initially put me off purchasing. It was the price for the book length that made me risk it. I had read THE HIGHLANDERS COMMAND and while an interesting read, it was not for rereading( my personal book judgement) I am glad I risked this one. It is full of drama and emotion with interesting characters. Even had me in tears...but then, I always was highly dramatic. Risk it. No sloppiness involved in the story. No wet emotional romance. Just an exciting if calm past man meets woman with a joint history of mistrust of others.

Loved this book my heart broke when her fathers words cut like a knife when he came for his property. William lack of trust for healers is a tough barrier to Ella to get through,but love over powers everything. This book made me go through so many emotions even though I knew they were not real people this author bought them to life , and brought me into their world of distrust ,heart ache,and a wild heat filled romance. I loved this book a must read. ❤️

I read this book as it said for those missing Outlander. Oh dear no where does it meet the standard of Outlander. More a Mills and Boon. Sorry not for me but I am sure plenty of others will like it.

A very pleasant historical novel. A story of determination in the face of being shunned by both family and castle dwellers. Set in a time when castles clans and villages was the way of life in Scotland.

A charmingly lighthearted story that melt your attention all the way through. Loved the characters although their story could have been expanded a little more. The ending was a bit predictable and felt rushed.

Brilliant story from beginning to end; incorporating love and action adventure. I do read a lot of historical romances and I've found Alison Butler is definitely my favourite by far. I am only aware of 1 other release to kindle by this author (The Thief) and I am looking forward to further releases.
