About this ebook

While spying for Clan Cameron, Brodie Cameron rescues a lass, only to realize it's Skye--the woman who'd broken his heart. Having beautiful Skye anywhere near him is dangerous because the price on his head is higher than the one on hers and he's trying to stop a war that could destroy them all.

Upon being rescued from kidnappers, Skye finds herself staring into the eyes of the man she once loved. She's grateful to be free but has no idea how she'll resist the lad who has become a brawny Highlander. Especially since she's promised to another, in a political marriage forged to strengthen the clans.

Ratings and reviews

Brodie Cameron was spying on his friend Ross MacLean, when he notices Ross and another man escorting a woman, who reluctant to go with them. Wanting to ensure the woman is alright, Ross approaches them, a scuffle ensues, and then Ross wonders if he has seen the woman before and if Ross has turned traitor. Edinburgh is to host a summit between Royalists and Convenanters; does this have to do with it? Brodie leaves with the woman and they ride away to safety. Sometimes a detail just won’t let itself be forgotten, and this is what happened here. Brodie doesn’t recognise the woman, Skye MacDonald, and this was a huge problem for me. Brodie and Skye were once in love, they had had sex, it was only five years before when Skye was eighteen, and he doesn’t recognise her? Skye is not covered in mud, she is not battered and bruised beyond recognition, and he doesn’t recognise her? I might have been able to overlook this – might – if the author had not kept on rehashing and repeating how much they had loved each other, how he bedded numerous women and drank too much in order to forget her, but when he sees her, he does not recognise her? It’s 1643 and it’s not as if she would have had cosmetic surgery, or had made drastic changes to her appearance or that she was scarred; women that age do not change that much in five years under normal circumstances, especially not in those days. Had it been Brodie whom Skye had not recognised, it might have worked; men that age are still growing and fill out, a different hair style and facial hair can make a huge difference. If only there hadn’t been that bit about Brodie not recognising Skye, HIGHLAND REDEMPTION would have been fine, although there are minor issues and your usual miscommunication, lack of communication, and misunderstandings. It’s well written, the action scenes are terrific, and the political machinations and clan disputes are interesting and handled well. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.

This is a story of second chance at love. Brodie Cameron, of Clan Cameron is a spy for the Royalists and is trying to find out if his friend Ross MacLean is was working with the Covenanters. Seeing Ross kidnap a lass, he decides to take matters into his own hands and rescues her, from what he thinks is a bargaining tool. What he finds is that he has taken Skye MacDonald, who he had not seen in five years. They had fallen in love and he had intended to marry her when a plethora of misunderstandings occurred. He began working as a spy and had to leave her for weeks at a time. Skye felt he was not coming back and after her father died, she had been placed in the care of her uncle. As Brodie and Skye spend time together as he tries to get her to safety, a lot of old hurts come forth and they both have a hard time accepting the truth... that they still love each other. Full of adventure and emotion, this story will take you on a journey to find that there is sometimes a second chance and you just have to take it! This is the second book in a series and although can be read as a standalone, I do wish I had read the first book beforehand to help with some of the characters. This writer has a lot of promise as she continues to write future stories.

this is a great series. she writes so beautifully that I would put her up there with lynsay sands and Hannah howell.

About the author

Lori Ann Bailey is a winner of the National Readers’ Choice Award and Holt Medallion for Best First Book and Best Historical. She has a romantic soul and believes the best in everyone. Sappy commercials and proud mommy moments make her cry.

She sobs uncontrollably and feels emotionally drained when reading sad books, so she started reading romance for the Happily Ever Afters. She was hooked.

Then, the characters and scenes running around in her head as she attempted to sleep at night begged to be let out. Looking back now, her favorite class in high school was the one where a professor pulled a desk to the center of the room and told her to write two paragraphs about it and the college English class taught by a red-headed Birkenstock wearing girl, not much older than she, who introduced her to Jack Kerouac. After working in business and years spent as a stay-at-home mom she has found something in addition to her family to be passionate about, her books.

When not writing, Lori enjoys time with her real-life hero and four kids or spending time walking or drinking wine with her friends.
