Fast pace, fun, exciting, grabs your attention from the first page. It is a story about a young lady that has been abused by the uncle she lives with and a man who lost his wife years before. They meet a strange lady who is serving beer in a keep, she tells them a story about a comet that will change their lives forever. This is one author that knows how to draw her readers in with a wonderful talent for story telling that hooks you from the first page. Both Cristy and Brochan have a sad story to tell, it really broke my heart at all these two have been through and are still dealing with. It depends on how you look at it, either it will be Cristy and Brochan worse day of their life or the best they will ever have when Cristy steals a cow and gets caught by Brochan. He has is own troubles trying to raise twins without a mother. He decides he is going to do a trade but things do not go as planned which makes him rethink what he was thinking to start with. What follows is a wonderful delightful story with a twist on romance that makes you smile and laugh as well as a little cheering and maybe a bad word or two. I really love this authors writing style, her humor and the way her mind works. It is a delightful story that grabbed my attention from the first page until the end. I really didn’t want it to end. The plot is wonderful with wonderful likable characters that you come to love. I enjoyed watching them work through issues and find a love like they have never known. Each has to get through some very trying times and learn how to deal with each other as well as trust the other. I know who ever picks this up will just love being taken back in time watching these two beat around the bush and find love.

The Reiver - Glynnis Campbell Cristy Moffat is an orphan she's been in the care of her uncle ever since her parents died. No matter what she does she'll feel her uncles wrath. Wanting to prove herself to her cousins and make her uncle proud she's willing to steal the new neighbors cow. Nothing can go wrong until she's caught star gazing instead of cow thieving and is hostage to none other than the new Laird-Brochan Macintosh! Brochan Macintosh is a widower with two twin boys with the maintenance of his keep it took all his time to do all the repairs and to go after his missing cows was another problem to solve. His missing cows are not the only problem he has. A feisty cow thief instead of his cows. He will exchange her for his cattle but does he really want to let go of her when she makes him feel more alive than ever before? Wonderfully entertaining story short and sweet I loved Brochan he was a fair man who respected a person for themselves, even though Cristy had awful experiences living with her uncle she felt loved and wanted by Brochan and his sons. Loved the way it all came together. I received a complimentary copy from the author for my honest unbiased opinion.
