"A little gem of love and innocence..."
Reviewed by Kate Garrabrant Historical, Romance Conor McTiernay has quite a lot of responsibility, from ruling over his clan to being a good older brother to his younger siblings, which are all rowdy brothers. Conor tries to rule with an iron fist and refuses to even think of marrying any eligible ladies that is until Laurel Cordell enters his life. From that moment on, Conor is lost. His heart and soul belong to Laurel even though she defies his orders for her well being and constantly questions the way he does things. Laurel was on her way to live with her Scottish grandfather until his enemies came along and captured her for their own nefarious ways. Laurel was able to escape them, but then landed into the hands of Conor McTiernay. Laurel is very outspoken, yet gentle to those around her. She is also very beautiful and entrances men and women alike with her contrary nature. Conor tries to stay immune to her charms but it soon becomes a lost cause. By time Conor reaches his lands, their verbal sparing has become more heated with kisses and embraces. Laurel tries to deny her feelings for Conor because she thinks he will become disgusted with her because she is English and has some secrets of her own she can not trust him with. When Conor falls for Laurel, he falls hard and does everything he can to make Laurel see that they are soul mates. Laurel in turn cares for Conor but the fear for her safety and those around her are constant. Michele Sinclair has written a little gem of love and innocence with THE HIGHLANDER'S BRIDE. Laurel is the too good to be true heroine, but her thoughts and actions are quite enjoyable as she throws Conor constantly off center. Conor is one hero most woman would love, from his protective nature to not being able to control his emotions when it comes to Laurel’s antics along with her fears of being torn from his arms. Some may have issues with Laurel’s way of thinking and the dangers she finds herself in. There are also the usual stereotypes found in this type of story. But, overall the story’s innocent way has a nice feel to it and Conor and Laurel are two characters that are very charming, especially when each tries to get their own ways about loving and life in general.

All Laurel Rose Cordell wanted was to leave England, her brother, and her memories of isolation and go live with her grandfather, a Scottish laird she had not seen since she was a child. She sought peace, quiet and no excitement. But after one look at the stunning lass, an evil laird’s son was determined to possess her and was willing to do anything to acquire what he desired. She was in desperate need of a hero, and it came in the form of a large, rugged highlander.
Conor McTiernay was responsible for overseeing six younger brothers and a very large clan. Women, especially pretty ones, were either trouble or a hassle, and he vowed never to commit to one. That is until one beautiful lass stumbles into his camp on his way home. As he fights for her safety, then her freedom and finally her honor, she learns how to trust, and he how to love, and together they discover the power of capturing a Scottish heart.
