In 1513 the death of King James IV has led to chaos and clan skirmishes throughout Scotland. Ian Cameron of Glencoe arrives at a convent claiming to have been sent by the father of resident Moira Maclean. Ian informs the Mother Superior and Moira that her father lies near death and wants her to marry him immediately. Stunned, she reluctantly agrees and they wed and consummate their vows. Not long afterward, her father arrives only for Moira to learn that she married the leader of her clan¿s greatest enemy.
Ian feels this marriage will insure the peace, yet he deserts his bride. Moira wants to forget how she has become a pawn of clan politics and return to her serene life. However, she now carries Ian¿s heir. Ian comes back for his wife not only because he fears an assassin seeking trouble between the clans will kill her, but also because he realizes he loves his gentle spouse. Now he must find a way to gain her trust first.
Once Scottish historical romance fans leap past that Machiavellian-like Ian is in love based on one quick night, they will enjoy this well-written tale. The story line is filled with action and counteraction as the clans¿ leaders and the assassin battle for supremacy between each other. The lead couple is a delightful duo and the secondary characters provide strength to the plot. Readers will enjoy Donna Fletcher¿s latest historical ISLE OF LIES once the plot shifts into gear.

What a wonderful read it was. I enjoyed the strength of the woman in the story. They well matched the men and often put them in their places.

So maybe not the typical romance, but great none the less. I loved his devotion to his wife. One of my favorites from Fletcher.

I really enjoyed this novel. It was a quick, enjoyable read. I love reading romance novels on my Nook b/c I can read them at work with no on the wiser on what I'm reading. :) I love the fact that education of women was stressed within the book--grrl power! :)

Married to unite the clan, how romantic! Now she must journey to her new home with her new husband. She is quite knowledgeable in healing, plants, numbers, and such - things a woman should not be interested in. He proudly defends his clan and has much to deal with as laird. The newlyweds struggle to co-exist. Very well written, great characters, romance & longing, and an intriguing plot.

WOW! This has to be the best romance I've ever read! I would recomend this book to ALL! This book kept up the suspense from beginning to end. And the passion and love that grew between the main characters leaves you just breathless and longing for more. I didn't want this book to ever end! I couldn't put this book down and ended up reading it twice in 2 days, it was that good.

This was a good book. My favorite person was Moira, closely followed by her husband. I loved how they were able to work past their troubling beginning and build a loving life together. I recommend reading this book and I look forward to reading the next book about Brianna, Ian's sister.

It was overall a good read but kind of repetative. Not a book I would talk to my girlfriends about but worth reading in some down time.

It is a nice read and I like Donna Fletchers books, my only problem (does not change my rating) is the epub format. Please take the time to fix the page numbers, other then that great book I'll be reading more.

Really long. Kinda hard for me too get into it. Was a filler for times I had nothing else to do. Wasn't drawn into the story. Not the worst book but okay for the price I paid.

Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.I came across this book & that's all it took to hook me. I have fallen in love with Donna Fletchers books. Great Story, Plot & Characters. Picturing the story in your mind is so effortless. As soon as I read the last page of this book I went right back to purchased the next book "Love Me Forever". This book will be a great one for you to try. When you are done with these try the 4 books about the Sinclair Brothers. That series starts with "Return of the Rogue". She definitely will not disappoint you.

The page numbering is off but the storyline is excellent, if you like the Scottish Highlander romances you will enjoy this one too.
