I have had the pleasure of reading Suzanne's novels in the past and own much of her collection in my personal library. Starting this novel i had high expectations for this novel and was quite surprised at abrupt early events in the opening pages. When starting any novel i always want to immediately admire the main characters perhaps for their strength, courage, compassion, or maybe skills. However the prologue quickly painted a picture of a seemly drunken self serving gentlemen, and a materialistic refined young woman.
Through my skepticism in the prologue i continued reading and must say that Suzanne displayed an effortless development and self growth in Callum. Within the first chapters i discovered a grown, matured, hardened man whom had worked hard for everything he possessed and became an extremely successful businessman. Callum scorned and rejected by the people he cared for most had moved on with his life, starting his own story determined to make it his own. Inadvertently Callum receives a crushing blow in the form of news spiraling him back to his roots in Inverness a heart full of vengeful violence and resentment. After ten years Callum steps foot back on Scottish soil, ready to make anyone and everyone responsible for his brothers death pay dearly.
Rebecca still reeling from the emptiness of loosing both her father and husband in the same year can only focus on her daughter and the business left in her lap. When a visitor arrives at her door and in walks a man from her past that she had convinced herself she never wanted to see again Rebecca falls into a full swoon of shock.
After ten year back in each others presence, and not shortly after in each others presence Callum and Rebecca must prepare themselves for an emotional roller coaster of passion, conspiracy, and murder. The reader is left unknowing what is around each corner, and what Callum is truly planning.
"I thought my entire book had been written," she said quietly, leaning her shoulder against his. "You were an early chapter of regret and disappointment and questions." Rebecca kissed the frown on his brow. "Now i think perhaps you were the prologue, and my next set of chapters is just the beginning." This time she kissed...
Until the final pages i was absorbed into Callum's quiet strength and self assurance. I remained pleasantly surprised thorough this read and was astonished at Becca's willingness to trust Callum blindly after only having just reunited with him. This is a good sit down novel and was not a quick read for me.
This is Book number three in Suzanne Enoch's No Ordinary Hero Book Series. Do not fear worry about reading these novels out of order, this was a great stand alone read as well.
Book Bio
The dawning of desire
1806, Scotland. Wild, reckless Callum MacCreath is in no hurry to become someone’s husband. But when his responsible, steady older brother Ian announces his engagement to their childhood friend Rebecca, Callum makes a startling discovery: he wants the lovely young lass for himself. But it’s too late, and when Ian banishes him for his duplicity, Callum is only too happy to leave Scotland forever.
…is delicious and dangerous
1816: Marrying Ian was the practical, logical thing for Becca to do. But once Callum sailed away to America, she missed his rakish charm and lust for life. Now Becca is a widow when a much-changed Callum returns to his Scottish homeland. Will he remember their spirited, fiery connection or does he blame her for his brother’s unexpected death? This time neither of them can deny their scorching attraction. But will their hearts be burned in the blazing heat of scandal?
