I must admit that I was surprised that I enjoyed this book so much. I was expecting to be disappointed based on the author's previous book (Mist Warrior) in the series. Ronan is the tortured (literally) hero who becomes somewhat of an anti-hero after he escapes the Englishmen who tortured him, leaving him scarred and broken, in both body and spirit. He becomes the Demon Laird to both his own clansmen and the English during the time if William Wallace, Robert the Bruce, and Edward Longshanks, the Hammer of the Scots. Lia is the foundling Englishwoman healer that travels to heal him. Through many twists, turns, trials, and betrayals Ronan and Lia find they love one another. I really liked the fait accompli that the English are dealt at the end of the book. The only thing lacking was that Lia's heritage still remains unknown by the end of the book.
