From Publishers Weekly

As heel-kickingly fun and high spirited as the ceilidh that Highland laird Payton Duncan throws to celebrate what he hopes will be his betrothal to lovely but stubborn neighbor Mared Lockhart, the final book in London's 19th-century Highlander trilogy (Highlander Unbound; Highlander in Disguise) will elicit satisfied sighs from readers. In this long-awaited installment, a smitten Payton attempts to convince Mared that it's past time they cast aside the deep-rooted enmity between their families and marry. But Mared's agreement to wed Payton is based on a debt the Lockharts owe him, and instead of gaining Payton's love, she longs to escape to sophisticated Edinburgh, where no one will know her curse: that violent death awaits any man betrothed to a Lockhart daughter. When Mared refuses to marry him, Payton takes her as his housekeeper for a year to work off the debt. Proximity forces Mared to realize that she does love him, but when her family's reversal of fortunes sends her to Edinburgh, she must choose between sparkling city life and her laird in the backward Highlands. Like the earlier books in the series, this one isn't especially deep, but London's charming hero and impulsive, vulnerable heroine are so likable—and get into so much trouble—that it's hard not to get caught up in their sprightly dance.

From Booklist

Despite the fact that her family has lost the money Payton Douglas loaned them, Mared Lockhart flatly refuses to pay off the debt by wedding him. There is no way on earth she will ever marry Payton. Instead, she tries to use the infamous Lockhart family "curse" to scare Payton off. When that doesn't work, Mared tries encouraging a romantic match between Payton and one of her friends. Finally, when every one of his efforts to either court or coerce Mared into marriage fail, a humiliated Payton comes up with another way for Mared to pay off the debt her family owes: she must spend one year serving as his new housekeeper! London brings her wonderfully witty Lockhart trilogy--Highlander Unbound (2004) and Highlander in Disguise (2005)--to a truly splendid conclusion as she constructs a thoroughly romantic, delectably sexy tale of two equally stubborn people, who, despite their best efforts, just can't help falling in love with each other.

(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Highlander in Love (Mass Market Paperback)
There has been generations of battles between those named Lockhart and Douglas. Yet highlanders stick together in time of need. Thus Payton Douglas gave the Lockharts a huge loan when they needed it most. The deal was that the Lockharts would repay the loan, with interest, in one year's time or give the hand of their daughter, Mared, to Payton in wedlock. Everyone expected the loan to be repaid with time to spare. But when the end of the year was almost over, the loan could not be paid.

Payton has long admired Mared and is very happy to wed her. Her fiery attitude and bold nature drew him toward her for as long as he could remember. Everyone in the Highlands knew that Mared is under a curse. The legend claims that if any man courts her, he would have bad luck and possibly lose his life. Payton plans to prove the curse a lie. These little accidents around her are just coincidence. First though, he has to convince Mared that a marriage between them would be wonderful.

Mared had been raised to despise the Douglas name. She did not want to marry Payton, no matter what. When she pushes him too far, he agrees to let her pay the debt in another way. Mared must be his new housekeeper for a full year. She has no choice but to agree. Once she deals with her humiliation, she finds that Payton is very attractive in many ways, even if he is a Douglas.

***** This story drew me in quickly and held my attention until the end. The main characters are strong willed, each with their own unique quirks to keep things interesting. I could not help but fall in love with them! This tale will leave you with a warm feeling and dreams of romance. *****
