I give this a 4.5 stars. As another review said if you like the bedroom scenes they do not happen until about 2/3's of the way thru on this one. I kind of figure that out from the first since you had to deal with her being betrothed to someone else. Dirk is of course different from the heroes in the first 2 books, as he does not really know how to talk to women. He has bedded a lot of them, but never really talked to them. He is more the silent type. In one scene where Isobel is trying to get him to take notice or her, he is basically just answering her with one word. He is jealous of his friend Rebbie because he talks to her, and is charming, where Dirk doesn't know how to act around her. The fact that he can not have her, because she is betrothed to another, only makes it worse. It is kind of cute how backward he feels around her. Isobel ran from her betroths home because his brother tried to rape her while her betroth was away. She has no intention of going back to him. She is extremely attracted to Dirk, and constantly puts his honor to the test, since he doesn't want to touch her while there is still a chance her brother will force her to go back to her betroth Torrin who is in book 5. Plus with trying to take his rightful place as chief of the clan, he does not want to start a war with his ally. It is still a good fast read, and a good story. However a few of the villains in this story get away, and at one of them are not taken care of for at least a few books since it mentions him in the description of book 5. Book 6 is not out yet, so do not know if Haldane will be in it or not. For such a young villain it would seem he gets away a lot.It is series like these where I wish all the books were already out, as I do not want to have to wait for the rest. At the end of this book it says there are stories for Rebbie and others. So book 6 will hopefully be about him, and then maybe she will do a story about Isobel's brother Cryus, since book 4 is Seona and Keegan, and book 5 is Jessie and Torrin.Sex content medium/high.
