Seeking his protection, she braves the wild and off to the cave that has been Ewan's home since that tragic episode years ago.

Ewan MacAllister is a man haunted by a past mistake. Years ago, he fell in love with the same woman whom his brother Kieran wanted to marry. When Isobail declared her love for him, they flee together only for Ewan to find out that he was nothing more than a means for her to escape Scotland and meet her English lover. To make matters worse, he returns home only to find out that Kieran killed himself after learning about their elopement. From that day on, Ewan will carry the guilt over his brother's suicide and turn his back from all women and live in solitude.
TAMING THE SCOTSMAN is the third book in Kinley MacGregor's delectable MacAllister series. I enjoyed reading this book and was entertained by Ewan and Nora's antics. I liked how Nora finds herself captivated by Ewan, whom she likens to a rugged bear that wants to be cuddled and cared for. It was good to see someone who dreamt of marrying a man of culture and one who would read her poetry, fall in love with someone completely so different; a man who storms off to attack trees with an ax each time he gets infuriated. As for Ewan, I am so glad that he finally meets the woman who can tame him and bring out the passionate and tender man in him. Someone who finally makes him realize that he isn't to blame for his brother's decision to end his life, when they were both victims of the lies of an evil woman.
This is another fantastic book by Kinley MacGregor. I enjoyed the interaction between the main characters, and the secondary characters are also very entertaining. The ending is guaranteed to whet your appetite for the next books to see if THAT certain mystery can be solved. I cannot wait to learn the truth!
If you are new to Kinley MacGregor and are a stickler for timelines, you should start with MASTER OF DESIRE, followed by CLAIMING THE HIGHLANDER, BORN IN SIN, TAMING THE SCOTSMAN and WHERE'S MY HERO? Although the heroes of the first and fifth titles are not MacAllisters, they have recurring parts in the other books. ”
“I enjoy reading from this author. You are captured from the first page. A wonderful book to loose yourself in.”
