Description

My Highland Warrior in the exciting Warriors of the Highlands series by beloved storyteller Miriam Minger brings you fast-paced adventure, an arranged marriage, passion, and romance!

Fearsome Scots laird Gabriel MacLachlan must take a bride, but not just any bride. Magdalene, his overlord's younger sister, is known to be as bonny as any Highland lass but as mad as a loon. Mad Maggie, they call her—and Gabriel has no choice. Not if he wants to put food in his clansmen's bellies, clothes on their backs, and repair the crumbling castle he calls home. A fat dowry in exchange for a madwoman, whose life will be in danger from the MacLachlan family curse the instant she becomes his wife.

A generations-old curse, an honorable chieftain, a clever beauty--it's the perfect recipe for a spirited Highland Romance.

My Highland Warrior is the first novel in the acclaimed Warriors of the Highlands series by bestselling author Miriam Minger. For fans of strapping Highlanders and spirited lasses, you don't want to miss this breathtaking Highland romance set during the tumultuous time of Braveheart and Robert the Bruce!

    This was a satisfying read and a good book to start with as I began reading again. Despite what other may written I think the book is well paced and if you pay attention to the details then you won’t think she all a sudden is in love with him. All in all the book was delightful with funny moments and warm-hearted. It was predictable because of the foreshadowing but I didn’t mind it and would recommend this book.

    The print changed to from one chapter to the next, and some parts I couldn't read because the font was too small and no way to enlarge it. The storyline was enjoyable and I think the author put some research into the story.
  • Entertaining but…

    *TINY SPOILERS* Convoluted or not, I was totally on board…until the part where he literally decided to drown her??? After he JUST went on a whole inner monologue about “being more patient” and “trying to understand her” like ummmmm…excuse me?????? AND THEN SHE FEELS BAD FOR HIM??????????? Listen. Listen. The writing style is SO good, but some of these decisions…ma’am the description says you wrote this in 2023? Are we SURE we thought that bit through enough? — Despite my sincere reservations, I did keep reading and finished this book. It wasn’t painful, but I agree with other reviewers who said that the plot felt VERY rushed and the characters’ personalities wishy-washy at best. Gabriel was a fine male lead in the end, despite his very poor choices early on. At no point did I feel like Magdalene was badly written—she just caused me a lot of secondhand embarrassment with her lunatic actions. The foreshadowing was very obvious, and everything played out pretty much exactly how I expected, which left me satisfied. If I could give this 3 1/2 stars I would, but I left it at 4 since I’m going to read the next book in the series.

    Greatly enjoyed reading this book. Great characters, pacing, flashes of humor, and lots of love. No cheating, no cliff hanger, and happily ever after. Will read again and will read the rest of the series!

    I enjoyed the characters, plot, and villainous surprises! My only qualm is that it felt short for all that we enjoyed.

    This story could have been so much better if it wasn’t rushed…almost felt as if the author didn’t have the patience to continue with the lunatic ruse and all of sudden the cats out of the bag and just like that she loves him. Interesting read still, but could’ve been better.
  • Sweet Read

    Although predictable, reading was really good, redundant in a lot of places.
  • A little slow and repetitive

    Nice story and characters. The story was doing great but the ending was a letdown. The story just fizzled out at the end.

    History in the Scottish Highlands about Robert the Bruce I King of Scotland. Learned a few things of which I was unaware and verified them. Why I read historical novels.
