Widowed several years earlier, Fleurette Eddings is being
pressured by her friends to remarry, but she's determined
to remain single. Fleurette discovers an extraordinary
statue of a 14th century Celtic warrior on a horse followed
by a wolf and decides she must have it for her garden. With
the statue firmly set beneath her window, Fleurette feels
safe and watched over.
Sir Killian of Hiltsglen awakens to find himself on a
roadway in a most unusual time. Men prance about more like
women, who are quite brazen, but he knows he's here for a
purpose. He rescues a young lady from a menacing bully,
only to discover that this is the lady he's been sent to
protect. He soon finds himself caring more for the lady
than he should.
This novel would be more aptly named "Taming the Widow." I
found Killian to be warm, gentle and chivalrous, bent on a
mission to redeem himself and avenge his master's death.
Fleurette teeters between anger and impetuous behavior for
the most part. TAMING THE BARBARIAN is a light, fun read.
The countess of Briarburn craves excitement, adventure, and
passion... But she never dreamed she'd find it in the arms
of a warrior from centuries past.
A simple touch by Fleurette, Lady Glendowne, awakens the
warrior known as the Black Celt. Fleur finds it hard to
resist this sexy, flesh-and-blood man, but is he there to
save her--or betray her.
