Reiver's
Bride
The
Secret Clan series, No. 4
By Amanda
Scott
Reiver's
Bride introduces romance readers to Lady Anne Ellyson and Sir
Christopher Chisholm. Lady Anne has been faced with several obstacles
in trying to get Sir Christopher back to her cousin, as he was betrothed
to her. Little does Sir Christopher realize that Lady Anne starts
having mixed feelings about her cousin being married to him.
Reiver's
Bride has humor mixed in with steamy romance. As this reviewer
prefers contemporary romances, Reiver's Bride has intrigued this
reviewer enough to find Ms. Scott's other historical romance novels.
Ms. Scott does a great job in developing the romance in this story
as well as developing the characters, including the house staff
member who ends up playing a very important role. The historical
part comes in with the thought of having a woman betrothed to a
man, and Ms. Scott does a good job in playing with this idea and
makes it an integral part of the story. The romance is well developed
and does not have characters rush into things with each other and
their hearts.
