Lady Caroline Blacknall is in search of the final pieces of
documentation for her life-long work, writing a book of
collected Celtic lore. It is to be her legacy, her gift to
her struggling people. For access to a rare book, The
Chronicle of Kildaire, she is willing to beard the enemy
of her sister in his remote island den.
Sir Grant Dunmore has escaped his past and the harm his
actions brought to Caroline by immuring himself on Muirin
Inish off the coast of Ireland, but he will never forgive
himself for endangering her life. When she appears
shipwrecked on his coast he knows the deep and subtle game
he is playing with the French can bring nothing but more
danger to her innocent life. He also knows she is stubborn
and intelligent enough the he can not shield her, though
not for lack of trying.
Caroline's direct and forthright manner is a refreshing
change from many historical romance heroines. She knows she
enjoys Grant and the feelings he raises within her, so
different from the quiet love she shared with her late
husband and is willing to risk it all for the sake of the
pleasures they share, even for a brief time. Grant is the
one who fears to risk love, and who knows the true danger
they face in the situation he has created for his own
purposes.
Set in the tumultuous beginning of the nineteenth
century's Irish insurrection the background has been
well-researched but does not in any way overshadow the love
story. Laurel McKee has done a fine job with her
Daughters of Erin Trilogy. LADY OF SEDUCTION is book
three. I look forward to McKee's next adventure with great
anticipation.
It's a mad, ill-advised journey that leads the usually
sensible Lady Caroline Blacknall to the legendary isle of
Muirin Inish, off the windswept coast of Ireland. Even so,
she doesn't expect to find herself shipwrecked and then
rescued by a man she believed she would never see again. A
man who, long ago, held her life in his hands . . . and with
it, her heart.
Reformed rake Sir Grant Dunmore knew he could
never forget the beautiful woman he once endangered nor will
he ever forgive himself. But history seems doomed to repeat
itself, for as long as Caroline stays on the island, she is
trapped in a secret plot that could forever free Ireland-or
turn deadly for all. And yet, now that she is in his arms
again, how can he dream of ever letting her go?
