Product Description
The second book in Maya Bank's trilogy is a tale of the strong ties of a family and the true love that may come between it. At last, the McCabe clan is steadily rebuilding but not without the help of Alaric McCabe. He is sent by his brother, Ewan, to marry the daughter of a neighbouring clansman in order to forge a much needed alliance. The situation changes when Alaric is injured in an ambush and rescued by the beautiful Keeley Fraser. While she nurses him back to health a spark develops among them and they succumb to forbidden desire. Devastatingly, they both know that they cannot be together for the sake of the clan. And so, Keeley must stand aside and watch the love of her life marry another. It isn't until Keeley steps in front of an arrow at the wedding ceremony, that Alaric knows that he cannot live without her.

Keeley was disowned by her clan which made her the strong independent woman she is. When Alaric literally lands at her doorstep she sees that he is injured and her healing abilities take over and see brings him in to tend to his injuries. As he heals she starts to feel close to him and when he is rescued by his family and she is dragged along as well. She is feisty when taken as she doesn't want to leave the life she has made for herself but she realises what she is missing when she becomes part of the McCabe clan. She tries to do the right thing with Alaric and leave him alone when she learns he is destined for another but her feelings become to strong to ignore. She does the right thing in the end which makes her a remarkable woman as she realises that he has to follow through with his alliance marriage to save the clan she has fallen in love with.
Alaric is unsure about his impending marriage alliance so when he is injured and wakes up to find Keeley looking after him it gives him the opportunity to put it off for a while. But as he spends more time with Keeley he realises his feelings are growing strong and he needs to stay away to save her feelings but it becomes harder and harder to do that. Every time the marriage topic comes up he finds himself trying to fight but he is honourable and knows he has to go through with it to help protect his family clan and secure their future.
Wow this book was emotional, heartbreaking and passionate and I loved it. At one point I was thinking how the author was going to make it that Keeley and Alaric were together at the end and she literally saved it at the last minute with a near heartbreaking ending. I couldn't stop reading this until I found out how they survived and was so happy at the end.

Would have given this book 10 stars if I could. Beautifully written and had me in tears. Emotional and passionate, I never wanted it to end. Alaric and Keely were amazing strong characters and had me so hooked I found it difficult to put the book down. I have already read quite a few Maya Banks books and have to say this was a completely different style of writing that did not leave me disappointed. Amazing! Emotional roller coaster. Loved it , loved it loved it.........need i say more.

Emotional, hot romance
27 Sep 2011
Format:Mass Market Paperback
On his way to formerly propose to the woman he must marry to secure an alliance for his clan, Alaric McCabe is attacked and barely flees alive. He and his horse somehow make it to a cottage in the woods and he promptly falls off his horse and passes out. Keeley is stunned to see a mysterious man near her home but as she is a healer, she knows she must tend to his wounds. Her first problem is how in the world to get this man into her home and I have to say, it was pretty funny. As Keeley is tending to Alaric, he goes in and out of consciousness calling Keeley his angel or his devil but he sorely loves when she curls up to him to stay warm. Alaric is quickly discovered by his brothers and Ewan, with his typical high handedness, takes Keeley with to tend to Alaric and also his wife. Keeley is very upset by this, but as she has been tossed out by her clan and she has already developed feeling for Alaric, she goes.
Alaric is stunned by the feelings he feels for Keeley, they are unlike anything he has ever felt before but he knows his duty is to his clan and it is tearing him up. When Keeley learns of Alaric engagement, and to whom, she is very saddened as she has already grown to love this strong, fierce man but also knows that nothing can come between them as the woman he is to marry, is Keeleys sister in heart. As time passes and their attraction grows, they decide to live in the moment and cherish the memories they will make forever. And those memories are smokin! When the truth of what happened to Keeley and her clan is finally revealed, it is a huge source of anger for Alaric and his brothers. But as the king has now approved of Alarics marriage and is planning on attending, Alaric knows his duty is to his clan, not his heart.
Oh, the ending of this book. Sigh...have some tissues handy because you are going to need them! You hope you know how it will play out but there is always that bit of uncertainty and Maya Banks will take you through the ringer to get the answers you want. Alaric, sigh....really, thats all I can say, lol. He is just sighworthy by the end. And Keeley, in search of a sense of belongness is so happy to finally fit even though her heart breaks. Together, they are a couple you will root for even while you don't want to see the clan falter as a result. Overall, since I needed some tissues for tugging my heart strings, 5 stars.

WOW!!

Format:Mass Market Paperback
This book is definitely a keeper from the very beginning until the end, every emotion was revealed and could be felt by the reader! The characters had defined personalites and were shown in every word and deed to be people a reader would like to know and talk with about many things. Alaric is my hero! His love for Keeley is one of my favorite love stories, EVER!
Please buy and read this book, it's even better than the first book, In Bed with a Highlander, which was a great book!!
