Romance Historical
From talented author Margo Maguire, the second in a
wildly, passionate Scottish-set series about siblings who
survived a brutal past and who will stop at nothing to
claim their birthright--even as they each find
breathtaking passion along the way.
Lachann MacMillan's watched his older brother, the laird
of his clan, find a passionate marriage, but he suffers no
illusions that his path will be the same--especially as
the woman he loved was stolen from him years ago. He's
ready to leave his homeland and make his mark. He'll even
enter into a passionless marriage to the daughter of the
Laird of Kilogorra if it means a chance at his own land…
and leaving behind his painful memories. A simple enough
plan until he meets Anna MacIver, a mere serving maid with
the face of an angel who ignites a fire in him that is
anything but angelic. Anna has been a lowly servant in her uncle, the Laird of
Kilogorra's home, since her mother died years ago. She has
no envy for her cousin's matrimonial fate as observation
of has taught her that freedom--no matter the serving
chains--is far more precious that being under the command
of a husband. But when Lachlann arrives to marry Anna's
cousin, she finds herself longing for something she never
knew she wanted. Together the maid and the highlander may
find that some things are worth having, no matter the cost.

Re: The Highlander's Desire
Beauty and the Beast (Belle & Adam) (Lori Ringel 8:13pm August 30, 2013)
Her Mad Hatter is my personal fav :) (Lacey Burd 8:17pm August 30, 2013)
Wow, Congrats on your new book: THE HIGHLANDER'S DESIRE. I have always loved Cinderella. I love to read stories about Scotland and Ireland. I was adopted but found out that I have some Irish in me from our family when my brother looked me up in 1994. I love watching Highlander tv shows too so maybe I have family from Scotland too. Beautiful looking countries that I would love to visit someday. I would love to win and read your book this summer. Thank You very much. Cecilia CECE (Cecilia Dunbar Hernandez 8:30pm August 30, 2013)
My favorite romance fairy tale was Cinderella. Going way back her. Thanks, for a great blog contest. Your reader. (Lois Imel 9:01pm August 30, 2013)
love to find new authors thanks to fresh fiction.I'll have to go get some of your books with a gift card I have. (Cathy Lindauer 9:04pm August 30, 2013)
I love Highlander stories! My favorite fairy tale was always Beauty and the Beast, even before Disney made its version. (MaryAnne Banks 9:17pm August 30, 2013)
My favorite romance fairy tale is Beauty and The Beast I lreally enjoy seeing fairy tales written into romances especially when they feature highlanders .Hope you have an awesome weekend (Wanda Flanagan 9:25pm August 30, 2013)
Little Mermaid for me! (Molly Wilsbacher 9:34pm August 30, 2013)
I think of A Wrinkle in Time as a modern fairy tale, with a strong resourceful young heroine, who learns that love - and being loved - is powerful magic indeed. And Cinderella - how many times have we read that story, and each time it is new, and each time, we hold our breaths and hope hope hope for that happily ever after that lifts the merest serving girl to true love with her Prince... (Beth Fuller 9:35pm August 30, 2013)
My favorite fairy tale is Beauty and the Beast but if you want one from a recent historical then Eloisa James' The Ugly Duchess is a great read. (Pennie Morgan 9:42pm August 30, 2013)
Thanks 4 the books. I started reading the books from your first.I have like everyone so far but have not caught up yet but I will. (Felicia Sidoma 10:08pm August 30, 2013)

Eloisa James has a whole series that are based on fairy tales and I have loved them all! (Betty Hamilton 11:23pm August 30, 2013)
I've never read any of this author's books. I'm adding them to my reading list. Something so sexy about Scottish men! I adore a Scots accent. (Lucy Pinto 11:49pm August 30, 2013)
I think my favorite story based on a fairy tale is Enchanted. I'm not sure if it's a book or not. I also like Beauty and the Beast. (Amy Kincade 08/30/2013 at 11:50pm) PS -- Thanks for sponsoring this blog sweepstakes. (Amy Kincade 11:51pm August 30, 2013)
Eloisa James has written some of my favorite fairy tale retellings. The Ugly Duchess (ugly duckling) is my favorite. (Cheryl Castings 11:00am August 31, 2013)
Congratulations Margo for your book Highlander’s Desire! My favorite story was based on Rapunzel which is Lila DiPasqua's book UNDONE. I would love to read and review The Warrior Laird! If your story is a Scottish adventure, it will add it to my TBR list. Thank you [email protected] (Nicole Laverdure 11:21am August 31, 2013)
My husband is Scottish and we have been to Stirling Castle, the gateway to the Highlands, as well as Aberdeen. Romance based on a fairytale - are we allowed to say Shrek! Otherwise the Irish tale of Oisin and Niamh is beautiful and tragic. (Clare O'Beara 1:08pm August 31, 2013)
One of my favs is Enchanted by Claire Delacroix... it is like a Beauty & the Beast story! (Colleen Conklin 1:09pm August 31, 2013)
I would LOVE to go to Scotland. Someday I hope! (Vicki Hancock 1:51pm August 31, 2013)

Beauty and the Beast is my all time favorite. I also love Swan Lake. (Kai Wong 4:14pm August 31, 2013)
My two favorites are Beauty and the Beast, and Cinderella. Both of those resonate with me. (Margo Maguire 4:28pm August 31, 2013)

I loved Beauty and the Beast. What a dear, love story! Thank you for the post. Highlander's Desire has peaked my interest! (Melanie Backus 6:23pm August 31, 2013)
There are so many that I really like, especially based on my favorite Beauty and the Beast. I think I'll go with the classic A Rose in Winter by Woodiwiss for my favorite. (Janie McGaugh 9:23pm August 31, 2013)
I always liked Sleeping Beauty. As for books, I've read so many, and a title isn't coming to me at the moment. The Snow Queen was a good book. Eloisa James has written a lot of great books, too!! My main concern is getting my hands on yours now, to start off my Fall reading. It sounds like a wonderful book, and I'm looking forward to reading it. Whomever did the cover outdid themselves, too!! Wow!! Congratulations!! (Peggy Roberson 11:22pm August 31, 2013)
My favorite is The Beast by Judith Ivory. (Maureen Emmons 6:53am September 1, 2013)
I love Scotsman. (Kay Nix 12:49pm September 1, 2013)
Beauty and the Beast has always been my favorite. A Rose in Winter by Kathleen E. Woodiwiss had a similar storyline. I like when characters look beyond what's on the outside. I guess I always hope that people in real life will do the same. Congratulations on your success and thank you for the chance to win!!! (Linda Brennan 1:34pm September 1, 2013)
snow white (Debbi Shaw 1:41pm September 1, 2013)
Cinderella! (LeeAnne Hardin 2:27pm September 1, 2013)
Scottish and Irish books are my favorites, I can't wait to read this one! (Mariah Oyondi 4:31pm September 1, 2013)
I have traveled thru Scotland & visited my ancestorial home. Scotland is such a beautiful country. I can picture in my mind where some of the locations are as I read about them, & I love reading the stories. I can never get enough. Thank you. (S W 7:04pm September 1, 2013)
I like stories in castles. (Katherine Kavouris 7:59pm September 1, 2013)
i love story with a twist time travel romance (Ann Unger 8:57pm September 1, 2013)
"Heart's Blood" by Juliet Marillier - it's inspired by BEAUTY AND THE BEAST. Quite a superb read. (Mary Preston 9:02pm September 1, 2013)
"Lover Awakened" by J.R.WARD, which is basically, "Beauty and the Beast". I love this type of pair up, with the hero having some sort of secret (like turning into a beast" and the heroine is the only damsel that can tame him. (Lazydrag0n Puff 11:03pm September 1, 2013)
A long time ago, I read a book called "The Glass Slipper." There are a lot of books with similar names, but I've never found the original with a slightly dotty kleptomaniac who was the fairy godmother. I've read a lot of romances based on fairy tales, but honestly, I've always wondered how they faired AFTER the happily ever after. I mean, did Prince Charming snore and spend all of his time watching jousting? (Marcia Berbeza 11:36pm September 1, 2013)
cinderella is my favorite or snow white (Denise Smith 12:31pm September 2, 2013)
I've got to say that the movie Enchanted is probably my favorite... old school meets reality. (Donna Holmberg 1:12am September 2, 2013)
I'm a fan of Rapunzel/Cinderella type stories. I like the escape/transformation aspects of a few stories. Sandra Hill and Catherine Anderson have a few stories that fit this theme. I don't want to run upstairs to find the titles. (Laura Gullickson 1:36am September 2, 2013)
It is Beauty and the Beast but I have to say that Snow White has been given a twist with modernization with "Once Upon A Time" and another twist written by Neil Gaiman. It really has made me think about the Snow White character far from the Brother Grimms and Disney's versions. (Kai Wong 1:54am September 2, 2013)
Romance set in Scotland, what more could you ask for! (Tabitha Keener 2:21am September 2, 2013)
Beauty and the Beast. Just love the Disney animated movie! (Sue Galuska 9:37am September 2, 2013)
Cinderella is still a favorite of mine. I read one kinda romance set in Scotland and about the Loch Ness Monster. Nessie did not show the day I was in Inverness. Appreciate the giveaway. (Leona Olson 10:36am September 2, 2013)
Cinderella. I love that little story! (Bonnie Capuano 10:53am September 2, 2013)

(Shelly Caggiano 3:44pm September 2, 2013)
I have always been fond of Cinderella stories. The one that comes to mind is my favorite movie not a book, Pretty Woman. I love that movie. I've read several books based upon that fairy tale but I can't tell you which because I didn't catalog them in my mind that way... Oh and I'm fond of Beauty and the Beast. I've read two lately that the beauty was the male character - Love having it turned on it's head! Thanks for the giveaway. (Lenna Hendershott 4:35pm September 2, 2013)
Hands down, Cinderella! (Kathy Sullivan 4:44pm September 2, 2013)

Don't recall any books I have read based on a fairy tale, but have enjoyed a few of the movies. Enjoyed reading your blog. (Sheila True 9:51pm September 2, 2013)
I love stories sbout the Scottish Highlands. They seem to touch a place deep in my soul. It's hard for me to list a few fairytales I love because there are so many but Beauty and the Beast would be one. I love Tangled and Brave, even though she hasn't yet met the man of her dreams , though the relationship between her parents is quite cute. Merida's father is a hilarious version of a strong highlander! Lol! I do love that movie! (Lisa Glidewell 1:53am September 5, 2013)
