Nobody knows that he is really Gavrael Grim MacIllioch, one of the last legendary warriors with supernatural strength. He is a Berserker, one of a long line of warriors whose supernatural strength is a gift of the god Odin.
Grimm has sworn to protect Jillian St. Clair, denying his love for her but always watching over her from a distance. When he suddenly receives a mysterious message from her father saying only “come for Jillian”, Grimm doesn’t hesitate and leave his best friend Lord Hawk and rushes to her.
Jillian St. Clair has sworn never to wed if she cannot have the only man she ever dreamed of….Grimm Roderick. But her father made a plan to see his only daughter happily married, even if that means he has to do everything to made it work. He ask three very attractive highlanders to look after Jillian when he and his wife are visiting their son and grandson.
Quinn, Ramsey and Grimm do not know about the plan the Lord has in store for them, but it becomes clear to them as soon as they arrive in Caithness and that the price will be marrying Jillian.
When Jillian overhear the three of them talking about it, she is furriest, but now Grimm is back she thinks her dreams will come true. Until Grimm tells her he can never marry her and tells her to choose Quinn.
But their love cannot be forsaken and Grimm steals her away, when his rival clan is determined to destroy all of his kind. Will their love be strong enough of will it tear them apart forever ?
Just like the previous book of the highlander series I’m totally hooked up with this story. I was drawn into the story from the first page till the last one.
Jillian and Grimm are made for each other, the attraction between those two people is huge. And when they find out Jillian is Grimm soulmate, the two love ones cannot ignore their feelings any longer and had to give in.
The secondary characters like Quinn, Ramsey, Ronin and Blader were complete and fitted right into the story. And what I really like the most, was to see the characters of the first novel back in this one. I love Hawk and Adrienne.
