In shock, Margaret goes to her uncle's castle and finds that only one man, Gannon MacMagnus, a half-Irish, half-Norse warrior will help her hold her clan together and locate her abducted younger brother.

Although this book was written after Kilgannon and The Wild Rose of Kilgannon, it tells the story of the first Gannon and how Kilgannon was established in the highlands of Scotland. I read the other two books first so lots of incidents had more meaning when I read this book. As usual, Kathleen Givens writes a gripping tale with the poignant relationship that develops between Margaret and Gannon. It describes how the Vikings raided the western coast of Scotland and the effect of these raids on the clans. I would highly recommend this book and especially the two other books in the kilgannon series (above).

good read about the period of history when the vikings raided scotland. although this story is a mix of fact and fiction isnt doenst feel that way. the relationship between margaret and gannon is very sweet and tender, u dont get the passion and excitement of them discovering their feelings and each other. cant wait to read nell's story(margarets sister) as it has been hinted at in this book.

This book is boring and you don't get to feel for the characters. It is predictable and not believable. It was hard to read it until the end. It is going straight to the dustbin. There is no real romance, nor adventure, or any original story. I am sorry I bought this and the second in the series (Rivals for the crown) at the same time for I would definitely not buy the second one after reading the first.
