I read the first book, 'The Honor of a Highlander' and I enjoyed that despite some of the reservations I had (see my review). Unfortunately the author's grammar and misuse of words has not improved since then and actually drove me to distraction this time round. I think the problem was that the story wasn't as good as the first book, so the grammar just added insult to injury.The English h set some Scottish captives free before they were due to be executed by her brother. She has to escape her home because she knows she has committed treason. The h helps her to get to the highlands and their relationship develops along the way. The premise of the book was good but the execution was weak.I read the teaser chapter for the next book (at the end of this one) and I won't be buying it because already the author is describing the H as a 'widow' in the first couple of pages.
