In Love With The Scotsman...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This story was truly compelling and wonderful. I fell for the hero instantly. He was like William Wallace from "Braveheart" all over again. Juliana Garnett as well, puts a lot of history into her books so you are not just reading a romance. You are reading history. It was almost spooky because I felt like she had actually traveled back into time. I felt I had traveled back into time myself. Anyone would believe that Alex Fraser and Catherine truly lived at that time. I would rate this book a perfect ten if I could. This is the first book I have read by her and plan to read the rest. Juliana is truly a legend in her own time. May she write like this forever.
great book!

After I read this book I felt like I'd been there in scotland. It broke my heart when Catherine went throuhg so much, and then all she had to go through with Alex well, it was wonderful at the end. I felt bad for Alex, too, but he was so strong I knew he would win out. When I finishe the book I wanted to laugh and cry at the same time.
This was the best romance novel I have ever read.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I was incredibly impressed with the entire novel. This is the only one I have read where the plot was feasible, the end was feasible, accents were not over- or under-done, the writing was skilled (neither sleazy nor vague), and the characters had actual depth. The story begins to build from the start and does not become disappointing or repetitive. Catherine is the perfect character of the age- she is a young Englishwoman trapped in a position of royalty she does not want to accept. To everyone around her- her father, her brothers, and even her mother- she is just a bone to be fought over. When the Scottish Alex Fraser comes along and kidnaps her in an attempt to win back hostages from her father, the love story that unfolds between the two of them is amazing. Of course, both must deal with the conflicting interests in their lives- Alex must show his people that Catherine is not bad simply because she is English; Catherine must learn that lessons she has been taught her whole life are wrong. All I can think of to say is you have to read it for yourself. You won't be sorry you took the time.
The most magnificent medieval romance I have ever read!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I have been reading medieval romances for as long as I can remember, which means I have read everyone from Roberta Gellis on up, and I have to say that Juliana Garnett is the best of them all. The Scotsman is the breathtaking story of a savage clansman and the beautiful woman he takes as his hostage. The story starts when a Scottish rebel, to avenge the capture of his brother by the English, kidnaps the ravishing daughter of the man he holds responsible. But the country is bitterly divided, and our hero faces not one but two fights--to save his brother and also to resist his fierce attraction to his passionate hostage. Lyrical writing, deep characterization, a truly ingenious plot, a hero to die for, and some of the most sensuous love scenes I have ever read make this a keeper! I will read all of Juliana Garnett's previous books, not to mention all of her future ones. Where has this writer been all my life??? Romance readers, you are in for a rare treat!
