Romance Historical

The third of this thrilling Irish series by Laurel McKee left me with no doubt that this series is truly a winner. McKee is able to spin an Irish tale like no other romance writer I have read before. The story of Grant and Caroline first appeared in Duchess of Sin. It was wonderful to get the final tale and find out more about the mysterious and intriguing rouge Grant Dunmore. It seemed to me that these two star-crossed lovers were forever on the run from something. Whether the trouble came in the form of enemies, brothel fights, ship wrecks, or themselves this unlucky pair is kept constantly on the run. From the desolate isle of Muirin Inish to the streets of Dublin, McKee sweeps the reader away on a fantastical and romantic journey through ole Ireland. In times of war, history must be told to rally the people for the cause. As a scholar, Lady Caroline Blacknall is writing the story of Ireland for the people to remember their past. However, Caro has found that she simply cannot complete her manuscript without information that can only be found in The Chronicle of Kildare. As a girl Caroline had her first glimpse of the elusive book and has forever longed to study the tales and legends lost within its pages. Caro knows that this book can only be found held within the hands of its owner, Grant Dunmore. Once, a long long time ago, Grant kidnapped Caro and touched her young heart in ways that she never imagined. Grant is the one man that Caro was sure she would never want to see again. But throughout the years Caro has found that she has thought of Grant time and again. Now, when she needs him the most, she must embark on an adventure across the seas to find him on the desolate isle of Muirin Inish. Secluded on his island for the past few years, Grant's life has continued to be surrounded by mystery and intrigue. Attempting to right the wrongs of his past seems to create one hazard after another. There is one wrong that Grant has never managed to right...the time he held the Lady Caroline Blacknall prisoner and the one time she touched his heart. Finding himself rescuing a drowning woman from the sea Grant never imagined that she would be the one woman that has haunted him every night and day since he let her get away. Now that his Caro is back in his arms, just what is he going to do with her and more importantly how can he ever let her go again? Being rescued by Grant was not on Caroline's to do list for this adventure. When things appear to go from bad to worse she finds herself being swept across the country with Grant. Keeping him in her arms seems to be the most impossible task of all, never mind the fact that they are running for their very lives. Now that she has found the key to her heart how can Caro ever go back to her simple life again? Can she truly let Grant walk out of her life again?

SUMMARY

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?
