Description
As she peered over the edge of the gallery, Sabrina Cameron trembled at the sight of the sun-bronzed giant striding into view. But she never recognized the stranger...not until the moment she found herself surrounded by arms of warm steel--and drowning in smoldering green eyes that had once held cool disdain but now shimmered with passion. Morgan MacDonnell, the boy, had been her tormentor. Now it looked as if Morgan, the man, would prove infinitely more dangerous... Though hatred divided show more their clans, Morgan MacDonnell had come to Cameron Glen hoping for a truce...only to find that by evening's end the only way to avert bloodshed between the two families was for him to marry his enemy's daughter. But even as Morgan spirited Sabrina away to his rugged fortress, his battle would not be won. For this delicate rose of a girl would put up a bold fight...and the spoils of victory would be nothing less than a heathen MacDonell's heart. show lessTags

I really did enjoy the angst, but it felt like it came in fits and starts. Lots of threads of different tropes - insecurities about being rejected, or being a substitute for another love, or being too weak or ignorant or whatever. None of them really fully fleshed out so it felt like just a mass of confusion and miscommunication and just plain being mean. I wanted to see Morgan help Sabrina heal, not just bully her “for her own good.” And while Sabrina’s behavior after her accident made sense in some ways, it made her a less likable as a heroine and kind of ruined her sacrifice to me. So while this was more unique a book, I found myself wishing for more of a formula. (3.5 stars)
Did not like the fact that the characters were not as fleshed out as they could have been
one of my favorite romance books, I have read it over and over!
