Product Description

Ingram

When Mary Maclaine's beloved Ian Campbell was murdered, she never expected to love again. Lonely and fearful of becoming a burden to her family, she accepted a proposal of marriage from Ewan, Lord MacCrichton, head of the powerful MacCrichton clan. Even her gift of Second Sight could not foretell Ewan's plan to use her for his own evil means--or that her sworn foe Black Duncan Campbell would prove to be her salvation.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not for the serious reader, Jun 8 1998
By A Customer
I found this book only mildly entertaining. While Amanda Scott does a fair of making up a story, she doesn't do a convincing job of telling it. I find her characters a bit unbelievable. Come on, a 20 year old woman (Mary) who is both a prophet and versed in healing? Her Earl of Balcardane, who at times exhibits a knowledge of the world and would probably have been well-educated, at times falls into poor grammar and uses "ain't"? His sudden turn from being tight-fisted with his money to showering everyone with gifts, all due to the near-death of a servant boy? This is strictly a mind-candy book, a quick read, but not memorable.

4.0 out of 5 stars A marriage promise made in haste., April 29 1998
By A Customer
Lord MacCrichton and his elder son, Ewan, buried a chest of treasure in the forest. Ewan's brother, Geordie, was a huge man with a childlike demeanor. When Geordie was told to place a mark on a nearby tree he overdid it. He marked every tree in the forest.
Eight years later only Ewan still lived. Since he was unable to find the treasure, he decided to marry the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter. Her name was Mary Maclaine. She had the gift of second sight. Ewan wooed her until he got a promise of marriage. When he showed he true self as mean and abusive, Mary decided to stay single. Since Ewan had tricked her to his estate, she escaped with the help of a boy. To keep Ewan from beating him, the boy and his little sister, left with Mary.
Duncan blamed Mary for his brother's death. Ian had been on the way to see her when he was killed. Learning of her treatment; however, he put Mary and the two children under his protection and took them with him to Balcardane Castle to stay with his family until all was settled.
Serena has plans to make Duncan her husband. To say she was upset when Duncan and Mary joined in wedlock is to put it mildly. Jealous, Serena turns to Ewan to get rid of Mary, never knowing it was Duncan's life he sought. With Duncan dead, he could still wed Mary and use her gift of second sight to find the treasure.
***Duncan and Mary are a match in temper and wit. I had so much enjoyment in watching them go head-to-head. Serena was a lady (or should I say brat?) that I loved to hate. This book was a grand way to spend my time reading.***
