The use of old Scottish/English made for a rough start to get into the rhythm of the speakers. But once acclimated, the clumsy phrasing melts away and the romance blossoms as expected.

Content Warnings: Sexual content, slavery, sexual harassment, racism, racial slurs, kidnapping, sexual assault, attempted rape, blood/gore, violence, and death of parent(s).
I received an ARC, through Netgalley, ahead of release. All thoughts are my own.
Ailsa and Kallum... *swoons*...he's used to dealing with women who never think to question him and she's used to dealing with men that are the scum of the earth. So when he goes to "rescue" her when she was already in the process of rescuing herself, let's say shenanigans ensue.
I adored this book and getting to know both Ailsa and Kallum. Both characters are so strong-willed and stubborn. Kallum is used to things mostly going according to his plan and schedule whereas Ailsa is used to having to fight tooth and nail for her very survival.
Watching these two stubborn people learn to open up, trust, and care for the other and start to change the futures they saw for themselves... *chefs kiss* I cannot wait to read more Lisa Rayne!
