About this eBook

"A little bit of English, a little bit of Scotland, a pinch of humor...spies and adventure, all mixed together, making this the perfect recipe for a highly entertaining story."—Clue Review

Ever since Lady Grace Walsingham discovered her uncle and sister are spies for the Crown, she has yearned for adventure. She's counting the days until she can leave barbaric Scotland behind, even if she must endure the Highland captain's company for weeks.

The Laird's Captain of the Guard, Fagan Murray has a simple mission: escort the haughty Lady Grace back to England. But nothing is ever easy. The sharp-tongued woman needles him at every turn. But when a menacing threat follows them on their journey, Fagan's grudging tolerance for Grace turns to respect...and into a perilous attraction that could seal their fate.

Opposites and enemies attract in this Scottish Historical Romance perfect for fans of Lynsay Sands, Suzanne Enoch, and Hannah Howell.

Roberts does a fantastic job of transporting her readers back in time. Vividly picturesque descriptions bring the world to life in a manner that was exquisitely easy to envision. The plot itself was fun and playful while at the same time allowing readers to immerse themselves in the wonders of the Scottish past. Suspense and chemistry make their way into the story, creating a whole that will keep you coming back for more. What a pair of main characters! The contrast between Scottish warriors and English nobility was striking, and lead to a number of strikingly comical moments. Seeing the heroine struggle with the difference between her beliefs and her desires was priceless. The utter Alpha male/Scottish warrior persona of the hero was unforgettable. As a whole, this was an utterly enjoyable novel. I’d definitely recommend it to any who enjoy a good historical romance. Please note that I received a complimentary copy of this work in exchange for an honest review.

Grace and Fagan were one of the most entertaining couples I've ever read. The witty sparring and interactions between the two, alone, makes the book fantastic. The magnificent supporting characters, thrilling surprises, and amazing storyline make this top notch book. Victoria Roberts is very good at building a very vivid image in the reader's mind, so it is very easy to become completely engrossed in this book. The bad guys in this book were so good too. I absolutely loved hating them. This book was everything I had hoped it would be, and then some. I've been waiting since I finished My Highland Spy to see more Grace and Fagan. It was definitely worth the wait. The chemistry between the two is very hot, and their butting heads always makes a few sparks. Do not miss the chance to read this amazing book! I received this book in exchange for an honest review.
