In this third Kilt
Series we find the handsome "Thief of Hearts" Ian McKay taken in by
desire, lust and confusion with the English beauty Kate Templeton who
has come to the Scotish court looking for the Dowager Lady Campbell in
disguise as a Campbell widow in order to obtain a list of noblemen that
are true to the captured King James. Young King James is currently
being held in an English prison for ransom and believes his countrymen
have forgotten him. He is angry and is planning war between England and
Scotland in order to hurt those noblemen who have forsaken him. Kate
has been his tutor for years and is blackmailed into impersonating a
Campbell to obtain information about the ransom. With Sandy Blair's
unique writing style, this book will keep you laughing and wondering as
to who the real "thief" actually is. As war looms with England and
Scotland, Kate wants so very much to prevent it by bringing back the
proof that King James does have his country's support. But the
handsome, sexy Ian McKay is in Kate's way at every step and since he is
a man of Lord Albany, who was supposed to have received the ransom
note, but has not acted on it, she must flee his advances and
discovery. She steals his horse and when he discovers she is not only a
thief, but English and holding back on some secrets, he struggles with
his physical desire for Kate and wanting to believe the secrets she
holds are true. They work together to uncover the deception and in the
process discover true love. Sandy Blair again has written a sexy and
witty Scottish romp, with a little bit of mystery, that is fun to read
for those who like a light Scottish Romance.
