A Highlander for Christmas by Paula Quinn

Temperance is the lighthouse that leads Cailen from cold, lonely and adrift to his true self. This is such a fluid novel, the plot and character development progressing in such an appealing and natural way. Cailean Grant has no idea that his salvation is right within his grasp, if only fate didn’t play such cruel tricks on him.

She is attracted to Cailean, drawn to him when she finds him in the woods after he suffers yet another betrayal. She is headstrong without being hard-headed, and her bravery and willingness to put herself out there to save a stranger was a hallmark of her worth. Temperance is the perfect highland romance heroine! She is outgoing and a little rash and has such a good heart and head on her shoulders.

His heart is scorched earth and bad decisions lead to more bad choices when he finds a home with the Black Riders, a mercenary-esque band of misfit killers for hire. What’s a man to do when he believes he will never have lasting love? Go dark of course. His last forays at love ended in bitter tragedy, both women dying sadly in his arms. This was certainly the case with Christmas Kiss, book five in the Highland Heirs series.Ĭailean is a man with a heart run cold. Her novels are lush, romantic escapes that always leave you content in the most cozy way. As Christmas, the season of miracles, draws near and the truth of his identity threatens to come out, Cailean must risk the only thing he has left to lose-his heart.įavorite Quote: “Yer veiled insult of me being incompetent are words I shall particularly enjoy watching you eat.”Ī Highlander’s Christmas Kiss is a beauty of a tale set in the Scottish Highlands made beautiful by Paula Quinn. Now, his guilt grows day by day, along with his desire for the beautiful, brave lass nursing him back to health. It’s the last thing Cailean Grant ever thought he’d become, but being part of the Black Riders was his only way to survive. And Temperance won’t rest until she uncovers it. But there’s a secret lurking in the depths of his blue-gray eyes. And now she’s determined to give this braw, brooding Highlander the help she couldn’t give her father.

Grief-stricken over the death of her father at the hands of the Black Riders, she almost didn’t see the wounded stranger in the woods.
