Product Description

Bronwyn MacArran was a proud Scot. Stephen Montgomery was one of the hated English.

He came to Scotland as a conqueror, saw her beauty and was vanquished. But still she would abhor him.

She owned a temper hot enough to forge the armors of battle or inflame a valiant soldier's passion. Yet still she would resist him.

She became his reason to live, his reason to love. And still she would deny him.

But while clan fought clan, while brother took up sword against brother, and the highlands ran with blood -- their destiny was made...and this mighty warrior pledged himself to his woman's pride, her honor and her name -- and made of their love a torch to burn through the ages! --Ce texte provient de la Mass Market Paperback édition.

1.0étoiles sur 5 Annoying all around, Janv. 6 2004
This review is from: Highland Velvet (Mass Market Paperback)
Bronwyn was selfish and annoying, and at some points I really wanted to slap her. That being said, however, I hated Stephen too.
Everyone keeps writing about his pride and how he was too good for her, but hey, he wasn't prince charming either. In my opinion, any guy who can raise a hand against a woman is a creep. I don't care if he seems nice and sweet and caring, he's still a creep. The fact that he SPANKED her as if she were a child just shows that he has no respect for her and thinks of himself as better than her, just cause she's a woman. Later, when she angers him, he again threatens to spank her, in front of all her men!!! ooo yah, he was really considerate of her pride...
Anyway, the only book in the velvet series in which the man does not feel the need to put his wife "in her place" is Velvet Angel. It is terribly sweet and a great redemption for an absolutely AWFUL series of books. Don't get me wrong, some of the books are greatly written, it's just that spankings and rape and men hitting their wives to the floor tend to make me hate the hero, even if it is just a small part or the book.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Jude Deveraux is always a good writer., Janv. 4 2004
Par Un client
This review is from: Highland Velvet (Mass Market Paperback)
This novel is second in the Velvet series, and since I only read the first one so far, I liked this one better.

This was a really great book! Very romantic, and the hero, Stephen, is probably the most likable hero of a JD book that I've read so far.

I've read other reviewers say that they didn't like Brondwyn, and that she's too strong and too shrewish, however, I disagree. As a general rule, I don't like the really strong heroine, but in this book I understand where Brondwyn is coming from. She is a clan leader, and as such has to be strong, as she is responsible for the safety of her clan. She leads them during battles, helps defend them against the enemy, and tries to settle disputes. In short, she is a real leader, and you can't expect her to suddenly change into a warm and loving wife. She does do that eventually, but meanwhile, you uis therefore responsible for her clan. She has to be a strong feminine character, you can't be a leader otherwise.

And you can't blame her for hating Stephen at first! She was taught from birth to hate the English, plus she has personally witnessed destruction that they have wraught on the Scots - on her people. And for the icing on the cake, Stephen did stand her up at their own wedding - for a reason which even I feel is quite weak (his sister-in-law had a bad fall and a miscarriage?) Try that one at a real wedding! So she has every right to hate Stephen, however, I think she could have been a little little softer, to make her a more sympathetic female heroine.

The hero of the story, Stephen, seems almost too good to be true. He falls so completely in love with Brandwyn, that he is willing to do anything for her, despite the fact the she hardly appreciates it. He is also very articulate - I found his explanations very well thought out, and it's no wonder that Brondwyn is eventually won over to fall in love with him. I just find it hard to see WHY he was so crazy over her, but that's what romance novels are all about, right?

If you're looking for an interesting historical romance, with a strong heroine and an almost ideal hero, this is the story for you.
