This started out a fun romp but then went to being way too far fetched for me. The heroine at first was fun to see her misconceptions but at the middle, I wanted to just give up on her. By the 3/4 point I wanted to take her out back and whip her. I don't think I've ever felt that strongly, but she deserved it for the betrayal and subsequent ills it brought. And it didn't stop there (in the spoiler), I wanted to kill her. Then the very end comes and meeting the family. There were laughs again but not enough for me to have really enjoyed this book.
2 1/2 stars.

unluckily the stupidity and betrayal didn't stop there. She did it again with her inaction. Yes, she woke up and ran her way to the torture, but really... she allowed her self to be drugged and didn't take up for Duncan at all. What if they went immediately to the whipping post. God knows he already was beaten to an inch of his life. Truly from the tie up to the almost end, I hated her. I thought he was a fool, idiot, imbecile, for going with her the second time anyway. You really want to fulfill the vow, wait, watch, and perhaps talk to the laird of the castle. The wench isn't worth, and she wasn't in the end.2 1/2 stars.

I understand this is a manifestation of the authors imagination. I understand the characters in this story are not bound to any real limitations of ignorance or folly but....REALLY? I absolutely HATE the heroine. The story is very engaging and has some very romantic settings that make you root for a HEA but... REALLY! NO ONE can be this simple. I won't spoil the story for those brave enough to give this book a try but...REALLY?

It took me awhile to finish this book when usually a book only takes me a couple of hours. I immensely disliked the heroine. She was always getting into trouble which was a result of her own foolishness - and not in a good way. I understand that the hero is supposed to "save the day." What happened to this hero due to her behavior was horrible. I do not understand how he "fell in love." There was nothing of substance between the two of the characters.
