Chronicle Concering Books Highland Honor (Murray Family #2)
In the second novel of her magnificent trilogy of medieval Scotland, bestselling author Hannah Howell returns to the 15th century and the embattled Highlands with this spellbinding saga of a Scottish mercenary fated to rescue a spirited young beauty accused of murder.Nigel Murray saw through her masquerade from the first: a young woman trying to pass herself off as a page. It almost worked -- until she was unmasked in battle with the English, at the point of a sword. Recklessly, Nigel saved the raven-haired beauty whose secrets now endangered them both. He spirited her off to Scotland, determined to erase the terror he tasted in her kiss.
Gisele knew the dark side of men, having barely escaped the brutality of her highborn husband, Lord Deveau. Now, with Deveau murdered and a price on her head, she was every man's prey -- hunted for a crime she did not commit. Nigel is her only refuge, a handsome stranger who challenges her with a fiery sensuality. But to truly trust him, Gisele must put the past behind her, and let her heart accept the simple truth...of his undying love.

I love the word impertinence in historical, it tickles me to know end especiallyI liked it much better than the first book. In the first book the hero's brother falls madly in love with the heroine (who didn't?). He leaves at the end of the book so he doesn't dishonor the family name with his lustful thoughts. He hires himself out as a mercenary for the French in their war with England.The heroine is dressed as a boy (poorly) and on the run from her murdered husband's kin. She didn't murder him, but seemed like the most likely suspect. He was a sadistic bastard who needed
A few little things were pretty standard for romance novels but the overall story was interesting enough.
The book was quiet interesting,but the author did not mention how Nigel loved Maldie ,that left a confusion.I felt his character a little bit annoyed..
Nigel carried this book for me. I liked him so much. I am not a huge road trip book person but I really liked this one. I liked Gisele but her going off on her own annoyed me. If she had gotten farther away and into more trouble at the end I would have been annoyed, that would have knocked it down to 3 stars for me.
Overall, I liked the book, although it had a few things that annoyed me...too much dinnae, cannae...it's dinna and canna!!! Plus ken = know, so does kenned = knowed make sense?! No!! It's kent = knew!! And far too many "easing the intimacy of the embrace"!!!But the storylines were decent, if a bit too unrealistically fast paced, but at least it didn't drag on and on. And I always like a book that has characters who's tales continue and can be seen in subsequent books, even if they're not the
