Even though I have only read two of these books from the stolen bride series from Ms. Eliza Knight this book can really stand alone and I really didn’t have problems understanding the story at all.  The story did seem to start off slow but I never lost interest in it and as the book progressed it got more and more fascinating with good plot twists, an evil king, political turmoil, fighting between clans, and even very well –developed but quite real side characters of Robert the Bruce and William Wallace.I really liked that the heroine Mariana wasn’t a virgin but was a mistress of the hero’s enemy.  Mariana was a brave resourceful woman but still had constraints and was modest to some degree around Brandon the handsome daring Scottish hero who can’t help but immediately fall for her too.  Brandon was instantly such a likable character that I couldn’t help but have a little crush on him too.  Although Brandon was protective of his feelings and treated Mariana a little unjustly at times he had reasons behind everything he did.  Brandon still seemed almost a fearless warrior fighting enemy clans and taking on a king all for the name of love and Mariana!I rated the book four stars due to some minor spelling errors that didn’t really detract from the story and for when Brandon goes to get Mariana from King Edward he disguises himself as Sir Whitley or is it Sir Whitely.  The names kept changing and I did get a little lost and went with Sir Whitely since that name was more prominent than Whitley.  Despite these things mentioned I still will read the rest of the stolen bride series and more from Ms. Eliza Knight!
