window vs Edwardian . There are some good elements of Scottish culture, If you are reading this review first, . . then DO NOT read any other review with spoilers!


The ending is just too LOL unbelievable! I would have fallen off my chair in laughter had I not known what to expect.
However, that being said, the manner that the villain is dispatched, and after, what commenced, still served for much amusement.
The feud between the MacSteel and McBrara clans has simmered for centuries, but now, inflamed by a sly, ambitious schemer, it threatens to blaze into cruel warfare.
The last chance for peace is a wedding between Fyna MacSteel and the masterful Earl of Braradale, With all the courage of her clan, Fyna goes to her destiny, But the Earl is as wise as he is handsome, and her destiny is not what she expected.
. . A Scottish Earl who has been abroad and “Englishified” for most of his adult life returns to his ancestral home where he is forced to marry the daughter of a rival clan in order to prevent further bloodshed.
He is annoyed at getting hitched to what he imagines must be an uncouth, bigboned, earthy Scot when he has been used to dipping his wick into sophisticated, gorgeous, witty, English, highclass tarts from the royal court of King George.


He meets the bride on his wedding day at church, He is astounded by her feyness, unusual beauty, elfin figure and face, and the fact that she managed to show up in a very elegant Parisstyle bridal gown in the middle of the Scottish wildness, with only a week to plan for the wedding.
Our hero is obviously not acquainted with Barbara Cartland Mary Sue heroines who can do everything right, including pulling a rabbit out of a top hat!

By the time the wedding night is here, the Earl is no longer reluctant but very eager to consummate his marriage to his intriguing bride.
Unfortunately, she does not share his feeling, He finds her in the middle of the night contemplating suicide by jumping down a waterfall rather than eagerly awaiting his pleasures in the marriage bed.
They strike a deal: they will both try to give the marriage of convenience a chance to grow into something more, and that means entering a platonic friendship until they both feel tingly in their private parts.


The pair go to Edinburgh where the English King is on a Royal visit, Our heroine pulls out many more elegant French gowns sewed by her local crofters French wife, and dazzles the entire court with her fashions, her wit and her charm, causing her husband to fall in love with her.
There are no nasty exmistresses to stand in between the wouldbe lovers, which is very unusual for Barbara Cartland.
However, there is a spurned suitor named Hamish, from heroines own clan, who vows retribution for losing his prospective bride.


Fortunately, the heroines fey powers of ESP wake her up in the middle of the night to alert her to the fact that Hamish is climbing up the side of the castle in order to murder her husband.
Realizing simultaneously that she loves the Earl and must save his life, she bursts into his room and warns him just in time for him to leap out of bed and slam the window down on Hamishs fingers, causing him to fall to his death.
The hero and heroine then finally avow their love for each other and jump into bed for physical bliss while their nemesis lies with his broken neck down their window, for a very macabre ending.
