The Sinclair Brother Trilogy, Book 2.5 (BONUS Novella)

First love’s flame extinguished…

Burke Sinclair and Meredith Sutherland want nothing more than to be married, but ancient clan hostilities tear them apart. When Meredith is forced to marry another to appease her father and secure an alliance, the young lovers think all is lost.

Only to be reignited…

Ten long years of a stifling marriage nearly crush Meredith’s spirit. But when her unfeeling husband dies and Burke, now a grown man and a hardened warrior, suddenly reappears in her life, the two may get a second chance at first love—if old blood feuds don’t rip them apart once and for all.

This novella-length Scottish historical romance is part of the Sinclair Brothers Trilogy, but also can be enjoyed as a standalone story. Pick up your copy today!

When love collides with duty, only the bold will survive...

Gregor “the Black” MacLeod is on a mission. He has been tasked with raising an army to oust the Pretender King who usurped Scotland’s throne. But when he is met with naught but refusals, he must turn to his only asset—his brute strength. He spreads a wager through the Highlands—any man he defeats in single combat must pledge to stand against the Pretender. But when a bonny lass turns his challenge against him, he finds himself indebted to her service. Gregor intends to see his obligation through as swiftly as possible, but his heart may have other plans…

Birdie Morgan is in search of help. With her clan battered by raids from a neighboring enemy, she needs the strongest warrior in the Highlands to protect her people. When she brings the Black MacLeod to his knees—literally—she binds his strength and skill to her cause. But drawing Gregor close may have unexpected consequences. She isn’t supposed to care for the fierce, commanding Highlander, yet a breathtaking passion ignites between them, endangering the very peace she is fighting for. Can they deny their desire for the sake of the country, or will their love destroy everything they’ve built?

True Love Can Stand the Test of Time!

Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2017

This novella is an entertaining read. The Sinclair clan and the Sutherland clan do not get along at all. A blood feud has existed between the clans for a very long time. Therefore, it is no surprise that the Sinclair warriors give a wide berth to Sutherland lands. However, Burke and Garrick Sinclair are given an assignment -- gather information in the village nearby Dunbraes Castle, home of Lord Raef Warren. Warren is a powerful man who seeks his own gain by pretending loyalty to the English. What the reader learns as the story develops is that Burke and others, as a matter of expediency, have had occasion to approach closer to the Sutherland's Brora Tower and lands. On one such occasion, Eighteen year old Burke and other members of his clan discover Lady Meredith Sutherland has ventured onto thin ice while in the forest near her home. Burke comes to her rescue by pulling her out of the frigid water. She is taken to the Brora Tower to be warmed and cared for but the Sinclairs are met with a very cold inhospitable reception. After that fateful event the two young people meet from time to time without either clan knowing. When both are old enough to be wed, Burke approaches Murray Sutherland, head of the Brora Tower Sutherland clan but Burke rebuffed three times when he asked for Meredith's hand ins marriage. The Sutherland, now aware of Burke's interest in Meredith and vice versa, rush to marry Meredith off to the clan's strategic advantage -- to Chisholm Sutherland, a distant cousin. Unfortunately, Chisholm and Meredith stay in a loveless marriage for ten years. He bullies Meredith and meets his own sexual needs with Meredith and other women. After all the years that pass, Burke wonders if Meredith still loves him. He certainly has never forgotten her but he does not want to fight for someone he cannot have, fighting through all the obstacles that the Sutherland clan and its leaders have put in his way. Laird Robert Sinclair is aware of Burke's feelings for the lass so gives Burke a special mission. The mission is to meet with the newly selected leader at Brora Tower, Ansel Sutherland, to attempt to end the long standing feud. Burke leaves immediately hoping to time his arrival at the Brora Tower to coincide with the arrival of Ansel. Ansel is not only a top ranked person in his clan, he is also highly regarded by Robert the Bruce and among the Bruce's top warriors. However, as fate would have it, Burke arrives a day before Ansel Sutherland. He meets and talks with Meredith then they profess their love for each other and vow to marry. They make love in the hayloft in the barn, only to be discovered by Ansel upon his arrival early the next morning. Burke finds himself in the unenviable position of attempting to face a very angry brother of Meredith while keeping in mind his mission to gain reconciliation between the two clans. A vicious battle ensues with the outcome of the reconciliation, Burke's life, and the story ending all n doubt. So, of course I will not give away the thrilling ending and resolution that occurs to this novella. Suffice it to say, Emma Prince knows exactly how to hold our attention from page 1 until the very end!

ENJOYABLE NOVELLA!

I've read books 1 and 2 in the series, and I loved Burke. He was the peacemaker for all and his character in the previous books made me want to read this novella.

Even though this is a novella, and not much action (one partial fight), I enjoyed it. I liked how the author starts out with the present time for them , then went back 10 years to when Burke and Meredith's loved blossomed.

There is only 1 passionate love scene between our H/h, and then how her wedding night transpired with her then husband. My heart ached for Meredith, because she couldn't be with the man she loved. I can't imagine what it was like not to be able to chose your spouse.

The next book of the series is on Daniel, a brother we have yet to meet but only talked about, should be interesting read too.

We get HEA, passionate (1) lovemaking, no cliffhanger for our couple, but as in the previous books a war is building and you don't know how it will all end unless you read the next book of the series. (ljb)

Highlander's Return: The Sinclair Brothers Trilogy, Bonus Novella (Book 2.5)

Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2015

Ms. Prince gets better and better with each book she writes....I'm actually looking forward to getting book 3 Spring of 2015. There were a lot fewer mistakes in this book.....either that or I'm getting used to them. LOL ☺️ (Shorter book too. LOL)

I don't usually like novellas as they are too short and leave me wanting......however, this one was perfect in size and answered a lot of questions concerning Burke and his marriage from book 2. It made my heart happy to read about Meredith and Burke's story and the happy ending.

There was one section of the story that was a little tense, but other than that it was a beautiful love story that finally came to fruition after ten years. There was only one love scene in this story, but it was done with such passionate tenderness, you couldn't stop smiling. Oh to be so lucky!

I would have given this book 5 stars, but those damn typos just really bug me.....need a better proof reader! I hope you enjoy this series, mistakes and all. Happy reading! Cheers! 🍻

A Historial Scotland Romance and Adventure

Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2015

I have just finished reading Emma Prince's four book set of the Highlanders. Her characters are well developped and the story line is based on historical facts. I find this combination interesting and can keep my attention for hours. The first book in the series is Highlander's Ransom. I immediately was into the story and I had a bit of knowledge of Scotland's history so I found myself captured by the story.

When I started reading this book which was #2.5 I knew the characters and each one's place in the family. Emma Prince does know how to keep one's attention and interest in the story line of each book. Not once was I tempted to close one of these books and go to another storyl. I am now an Emma Prince fan.

Burke was separated from his true love by a clan feud, and her father wasted no time in marrying her to someone else, but it seems Meredith is a widow now, and Burke hopes the news means he will get one more chance to seize happiness. Sweet story of young love that was never forgotten. Loved Burke, and the way he handled the confrontation with Meredith’s brother! I’m looking forward to Daniel’s story, Highlander’s Reckoning, and hope to see it out soon!

Enjoyable but short novella in which Burke and Meredith get a second chance at love. Not really long enough to fully develop the characters but entertaining nonetheless.

It's a short story but nevertheless it was nice and gave a bit of insight of Burke's lost love. I'm always happy when two people in love find each other again despite all odds!
