The Devil Wears Plaid

In Teresa Medeiros's The Devil Wears Plaid, this historical romance will have you swept off your feet and dare to fall in love. For Emmaline Marlowe, she was set to marry the Earl of Hepburn in a marriage of convenience, since her father was deep in debt. Before she could say I do, her wedding was interrupted by Jamie Sinclair, who came riding on his horse and abducted her. From there, both Jamie and Emma got to know each other, while she was held captive as he plotted his revenge against the Hepburns. He vowed vengeance on his late parents' death, since the elder Hepburn didn't want to do anything with him.  For Emma, she had tempted to escape, but Jamie would come after her.  Within time and withstanding the elements in the wilderness, they had gotten close to each other and learned more about him and his merry men.  Though Emma was sick and tired of doing what her parents told her to do, she planned to throw caution to the wind and have Jamie gave her one night of bliss with her. But as he sent a ransom to the Hepburn castle on something more valuable than her, things got dicey in the exchange, when Emma was struck by a bullet. As he tended to her medical needs, he had learned the stone-cold truth about what happened to his parents and his own heritage that would shock the world. And with her own plot to stop the Hepburns in their tracks, she would put her heart on the line for the one person she loves.

This was an enticing and scintillating historical romance that would make you fall in love with this novel and be daring on your own. I cared for Emma and how she survived and endured a lot while being Jamie's hostage. I've found her tenacious and bold as well, when she had finally took a stand.  I did feel sorry for Jamie's wrath and angst on the Hepburns, when he had sought after the truth for so long. I did love the dual locations of England and Scotland's Highlands that had made the setting irresistibly eye-popping to come to life. This would make you want to sway and soon, whistle and sigh, take a deep breath and feel warm all over with non-stop action, drama, tons of sweet romance, and plenty of intrigue on every page.

Will you take a chance and read the Devil Wears Plaid tonight?
