In order to escape an unwelcome betrothal, Amalie Ellin,
the only daughter of the 6th Duke of Ellincourt, leaps at
the opportunity to disguise herself as the new governess to
Clan MacKennah. For Amalie, pretending to be someone else
will be like the games she once played with her brother to
pass the time. With freedom at her fingertips but fate at
her doorstep, she trips while exiting a carriage and
happens to land in the arms of Thayne MacGowan.
Dumbfounded by her reaction to the handsome Highlander, she
manages to land herself in a most precarious situation that
could mean life or death if truths are revealed.
Thayne MacGowan has spent most of his life diligently
attending to clan matters and cleaning up the mistakes of a
brother that has no business being laird. When his strong
sense of honor and duty calls on him to help rescue a
former love from a tyrant husband, Thayne crosses paths
with a beautiful young woman claiming to be the new
governess for a neighboring clan. In an act of
desperation, Thayne draws Amalie into a plan to hide his
real identity from pursuers; setting off a chain of events
that would soon find them married under Scottish law. The
battle of wills and wit continue to the grounds of Castle
MacGowan where the truth will become unraveled and a true
love match revealed.
Readers who like Scottish historical romance will be
thrilled with Jackie Ivie's, A PERFECT KNIGHT FOR LOVE.
The images she paints of 1692 Scotland are captivating and
make this book a fast and enjoyable read. The storyline
is well penned and the passion between Thayne and Amalie
leaps off the pages early in the book. I recommend picking
up A PERFECT KNIGHT FOR LVOE and traveling through the
Highlands with
Jackie Ivie. It's a wonderful trip!
