"Kidnapped brides and unwilling grooms trapped by a Scottish snowstorm"

Fresh Fiction Review

The Lady Most Willing
Eloisa James, Julia Quinn, Connie Brockway

Romance Historical | Romance Anthology

A brazen Highlander wants his heir-and-a-spare married and breeding, so he abducts three potential brides. His clansman manage to grab an extra lady and an English duke at the same time. Their caravan makes it back to the castle just before a massive winter storm moves in.

They're trapped.

Julia Quinn, Eloisa James and Connie Brockway collaborated on THE LADY MOST WILLING. They each wrote a section of the book focused on one of the couples thrown together by Laird Taran Ferguson's reckless raid. Each of the stories could stand alone, but they also make up, as the cover says, "a novel in three parts."

Each of the heroes and heroines is unique and interesting, and they're quite enterprising in devising group entertainments and opportunities to be alone.

It's quite delightful to get so many love stories in one book, and the happy endings are spread throughout the book, so you don't have to wait until the very end. It's also pleasant to have the whole book to get to know the characters and setting, without having to start from scratch at the beginning of each story with a traditional anthology.

THE LADY MOST WILLING will be enjoyed by Regency and Highland romance fans, and reading it is the second best thing to do if you're snowed in.

SUMMARY

You are cordially invited to a ball party kidnapping... Taran Ferguson, laird of his clan, is determined that his ancient (if not so honorable) birthright be secured, and when both his nephews refuse to wed, the old reprobate takes matters into his own hands: he raids a ball and makes off with four likely brides...

Miss Marilla Chisholm–– the BONNIEST LASS in Scotland, and an heiress to boot.

Miss Fiona Chisholm–– her older sister, ANOTHER FINE CHOICE (but for that tiny stain on her reputation)

Lady Cecily Tarleton–– TRUE, SHE'S AN English BEAUTY, but very, very rich.

Miss Catriona Burns–– WITHOUT NAME OR FORTUNE, CLEARLY SOMEONE MADE A MISTAKE

OH, YES. AND ONE VERY IRATE DUKE

Re: Kidnapped brides and unwilling grooms trapped by a Scottish snowstorm

I loved how three talented authors contributed to creating
this fairytale-like romance novel with three unique romantic
storylines. Readers will be caught off guard by the depth of
the passion each author lovingly infused into each romance.
Four beauties are unexpectedly kidnapped by a Scottish
laird, who is determined that each of his nephews will find
a splendid match. Only Taran Ferguson's clever plan does not
go according to plan. Not only do the authors present
romance at it's finest, they add plenty of humor and mystery
to this fabulously unique and unbelievably dreamy romance
novel. Savor each page in this novel, because it's not
everyday that one comes across a romance that is written to
perfection.
