The warriors have escaped Deirdre’s grasp. Now that she has been defeated for the current moment. While checking for survivors, they come across an injured woman. Hayden for some unexplained reason feels very protective of this woman. Though, when he learns that she is a druid, Hayden’s feelings toward her are still of lust but he also is guarded around her. His family was destroyed by druid magic.
Isla is a druid but she was just a prisoner of Deirdre’s as the MacLeods and the rest of the warriors. Isla knows that every moment that she is recovering that Deirdre is as well. Though, there is one upside to staying with the MacLeod’s…Hayden. Isla can not deny the lust she sees in his eyes every time he looks at her.
Untamed Highlander is book four of the Dark Sword series. While each book can be enjoyed on its own, these books really should be read in order starting with book one, Dangerous Highlander. It was great to visit with all the warriors and see them band together even more against Deirdre. The passion between Hayden and Isla was sizzling off the pages of this book! Hayden only needed to look at Isla and he was already undressing her with his eyes. I am jealous of the women in these books. All the warriors are some good man candy. Though, I don’t like Deirdre, I am glad to see that she survived. This means that there are more books to continue in this series. I am addicted to this series and can not get enough. Untamed Highlander is worthy of a spot on my bookshelf.

It is IMPOSSIBLE to read one of Donna Grants highlander books & not fall in love w/ the Hero. Impossible. I dare anyone of you to read this series and then tell me you do NOT want to marry these highlanders & have their babies... PFFFFT, never happen. C'mon August! Want book 5!

I loved this latest installment of the series and can’t wait for the rest of the series. Hayden and Isla’s relationship is problematic from the beginning but by the end we are reminded that sometimes the most different of individuals can come together into an explosive and fiery union, destined to last forever. Hayden and Isla’s story was definitely one of my favorites of the series. Ms. Grant is definitely a master at taking two characters with troubled pasts, intensely suspicious natures, and strong resistance to emotional situations and making them fall deeply in love and come to terms with the universal truth that everyone has some darkness in them, but it’s our choices that show what side of the coin we will fall on. And she leaves you asking yourself will you embrace the dark or the light?

Quickie Review---Be mindful of spoilers that may be in this review. Proceed at your own risk.
Untamed Highlander is the fourth book in the Dark Sword. Now that I have finished throughout the authors contemporary books, I now want to get into her Dark Universe series. So I kinda jumped into the middle of the series not realizing some years ago I read the first three in this series. Once I got back into it, I started slowly to remember this world and its very fascinating. If you are looking for some historical PNR to read, then this definitely needs to be on your list. Its very fascinating how she developed the world building for this one here. And this one has an enemies to lovers feel as the heroine as been used as a weapon against the Druid warriors. I really was intrigued to see how the redemption would happen and Donna Grant handled this aspect very well. I will say that some parts of the romance elements were slower. Not sure if thats just this book or what, but I did love the world that we are brought into with this one here. So I do recommend this if you are looking for something different in your historical or PNR reading.
