Romance Historical
"Cast adrift as a baby by her mother who was fleeing for her life and raised by a solitary woman on the Isle of Horses, beautiful and blind Alannah has a rare degree of sensory perception and a magical bond with the island's horses. But her isolated life is dramatically changed when a storm casts a ruthless, renegade Scottish sea captain ashore. Lord's lyrical prose, exceptionally well-done descriptions, and a touch of the paranormal give this book an especially romantic feel that, except for the high sensuality levels, is reminiscent of Kathryn Lynn Davis's early Scottish historicals. As the third volume in Lord's "Wild" series, which features heroines with a special affinity for animals, this novel picks up the threads from In a Wild Wood and weaves them to a logical, satisfactory conclusion. A relatively new writer, Lord (who also is a veterinarian) will appeal to readers who like their romances medieval, Scottish, slightly paranormal, and hot."
