    About this audiobook

    Magnus MacKay is the ultimate Highlander: tough, proud, able to master any terrain and to best his enemies. Called "the Saint" for his refusal to discuss women, as well as for his cool and steady leadership, Magnus hides a painful truth. It isn't virtue or piety that keeps him silent, but a wound of love and loss that cuts so deep he cannot bear to speak of it. But when the woman who refused him is betrothed to his friend and fellow Guardsman, Magnus is tested by love's battle cry.

    A wild and innocent beauty, Helen chose family duty over her desire for Magnus. Now the anger in his eyes mirrors the tormented regret in her heart. But as deadly subterfuge stalks the King and his Guard, Helen vows to right her youthful mistakes with a woman's determined spirit. Still, Magnus harbors secrets and an iron will not to weaken to temptation-or heartache-again. But as danger looms, it's the kiss not of a saint, but of a sinner, that can save them.

    Monica McCarty

    Monica McCarty is the bestselling author of the Highland Guard series, the MacLeods of Skye trilogy, and the Campbell trilogy. Her interest in the Scottish clan system began in the most unlikely of places: a comparative legal history course at Stanford Law School. After realizing that her career as a lawyer and her husband’s transitory life as a professional baseball player were not exactly a match made in heaven, she traded in her legal briefs for Scottish historical romances with sexy alpha heroes. Monica McCarty lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband and their two children.

      I don't know what to say about this book without repeating myself (if you read all of my other reviews about the Highland Guard Series, you know what I'm saying)...Monica McCarty is one of my favorite authors and still she manages to make me "love" her more with each new book. I have a few favorites among them (The Chief, The Viper) and this is one of them. Each character is well defined, built not only based on true historical facts but from a wonderful and powerful imagination. In here we found a strong, powerful and trustworthy warrior. Magnus MacKay struggles with his passions and beliefs as well as a sense of betrayal that only make him more 'likeable'. It is the Highland way, to put honor and the clan first and in here we can see what the feuds did to the clans (even if this romance is fictional). Still waters run deep and that's all I have to say about Magnus.As for Helen, well, she was a woman and I believe that it was hard to be one in those days. She is strong, faithful and resourceful, she isn't a lady in need of rescue. I believe that they made a great pair.In this book we learn more about the Highland Guard and they 'modus operandi', there is more battle and action scenes as well.This is a must read.
