Product Description:
He would take her as his bride...but could she give her heart in return?
When Egan MacBain takes beautiful Glenda MacKay as his bride, it appears that he's done so for the noblest of reasons. In truth, he has vowed at last to claim the woman he's always loved--yet once lost--to another man. But the rugged Highlander is determined to keep his passion hidden while he woos her with his gentle caress and wicked kisses. For he will not have an unwilling wife and will only show his tenderness once she is tamed.
Although Glenda has agreed to the marriage, she's only done so to gain the protection of Egan's name. Yet this young widow of the once-powerful clan MacKay never expected that vows of love would leave her lips again, nor did she believe she'd ever hold any man so dear. But suddenly she finds herself succumbing to the strong, silent warrior who fills her with trepidations and a fevered, forbidden yearning to fulfill his wicked promise of the love--and the child--she aches for in the depths of the soul.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Disappointing
I loved "His Wicked Ways" and I was really looking forward to Glenda's story, but this was a huge disappointment. Glenda was annoying...she was always rebuffing Egan who has loved her for years. She wants him but then feels this unreasonable guilt b/c her dead husband. I couldn't even finish the book b/c I hated Glenda so much and felt sorry for Egan. Glenda was, by far, the worst heroine ever!
Rating:  - Good romance, despite hairy hero
I liked this story a lot and would have given it five stars if not for the really obvious villain and incredibly hairy hero.

Yuck!
Still, I like the chemistry and history between ... Read More

Rating:  - His Wicked Promise
Samantha James is a wonderful romance writer. This is just another of her timeless historical romances.
Rating:  - Masturbating hero grossed me out...
I came into this book after being thoroughly disgusted by another of this author's books, 'The Truest Heart'. I didn't want to waste my time, so instead I skimmed to see if the author would do anything offensive.
And she did. After having his sexual advances repeatedly rebuffed by the heroine, he gets so frustrated that he masturbates in front of her. EWWWWWW!
I will never read another of this authors' books. She seems to find sick things (like sexual assault and men playing ... Read More
