An elite fighting force unlike the world has ever seen... Scouring the darkest corners of the Highlands and Western Isles, Robert the Bruce handpicks ten warriors to help him in his quest to free Scotland from English rule. They are the best of the best, chosen for their superior skills in each discipline of warfare. And to lead his secret Highland Guard, Bruce chooses the greatest warrior of all. The ultimate Highland warlord and a swordsman without equal, Tor MacLeod has no intention of being drawn into Scotland’s war against the English. Dedicated to his clan, the fiercely independent chief answers to no one—especially not to his alluring new bride, bartered to him in a bid to secure his command of the deadliest fighting force the world has ever seen. The treacherous chit who made her way to Tor’s bed may have won his hand, but she will never claim his heart. Although her husband’s reputation is as fierce as his manner, Christina Fraser believes that something softer hides beneath his brutal shell. But the only warmth she feels is in their bed, in glorious moments of white-hot desire that disappear with the dawn. When Christina’s reckless bid to win her husband’s love goes awry and thrusts them into danger on the eve of war, Tor will face his ultimate battle: to save his wife and to open his heart—before it’s too late.

"Together they were a force to be reckoned with. He felt like he was standing on the edge of something momentous. As if history were about to be made. The dawn of a new age of warrior harkenedthe dawn of the Highlander."-Dunvegan Castle-Well! I've found another author I will certainly adore And one more fantastic Highlander series I'm in heaven One warrior Highlander Chief - enough to make you swoon An elite warrior Highlander army - heart palpitations! Beware! The backgroundI just have

4 starsThe Chief is a well written and informative book that in many ways felt more like an historical fiction (the quality of the author's research is very apparent) than a romance novel. However, when the hero and heroine were together they certainly steamed up the pages. Their love story was captivating, heartwarming, and at times heartbreaking. Their much deserved HEA warmed my heart. I enjoyed this book and highly recommend it.

I don't really know what to say about this one. I guess I'm a little baffled because I didn't expect such a detailed history lesson, but basically that's what I feel I got from this book. Oh, and a detailed(ish) instructions about how to train a highlander special ops team, aka. the highlanders navy SEALs.Our hero, clan chief Tormod MacLeod does his best to stay neutral and to protect his clan from Scotlands war against the English. You see he's an Islander and up until a few decades ago the

What a great way to start my year of reading. Monica McCarty is hands down an amazing writer. I was really impressed by her in depth research of the period and her ability to fictionalize King Robert's wars to reclaim Scotland. The hero of the story was likable as well, but I did not like the heroine. She was too much of a doormat for me to appreciate her character in any way. I still enjoyed the story and all secondary characters. Great start to the series.

Wow, what an amazing first book! This is book one in the Highland Guard series, and I was more than impressed. Sometimes an author comes along who puts so much history into a novel that it is like reading a textbook. Monica McCarty is NOT one of those, in fact the history of William Wallace and the time of the Bruce was inserted so seamlessly that it hardly felt like I was reading history. It was part of the story, and part of Christina and Tor's romance.Christina's father is a noble who hates

3.5 stars or C+ In 1305, Scotland's champion William Wallace is dead. The rebellion against England seems squashed. Robert the Bruce decides to form a special team of the greatest Highland warriors to fight agaist the King Edward's legion. Each area of warfare is covered.The list of warriors includes: Tormod "Chief" MacLeod: Expert SwordsmanErik "Hawk" MacSorley: Seafarer and SwimmerGregor "Arrow" MacGregor: Marksman and ArcherEoin "Striker" MacLean: Strategist in Pirate WarfareEwen "Hunter"

Just what I needed, a tough Scotsman, unable to love, at least he thinks that is the case. Christina - you can get in trouble reading romantic novels - real life is not all Lancelot and Guinevere.... but you did get your HEA after plenty of passion, power struggle, deaths, fighting etc., etc. etc. First time reading this author but will definitely check out some more of her books. I am heading to Scotland at Easter - Skye was not on our list of places to visit but might just add it in now.
