REVIEW: THE HIGHLANDER'S ACCIDENTAL BRIDE by Cathy MacRae is a storyline written in the highlander historical romance genre.  The story begins as Laird Scott and the woman he presumes to be Lady Miriam Barde are forced to wed to ensure Scott retains possession of his lands.  But when the Laird discovers that the woman he kidnapped and to whom he is now married is not the Barde's daughter, the couple must endeavor to keep secret their accidental marriage or fight one another for freedom at all costs.  If the truth is revealed the Laird will lose everything including the woman with whom he is falling in love. The anguish and heartbreak of knowing she is not the woman to whom the Laird was supposed to wed, will force Mary into a lifestyle she has only experienced from the sidelines in her former life.The reader is taken on a journey with two people wanting something in their lives but neither one knows where to look.  As the storyline develops we watch as Laird Scott softens towards the woman he now calls wife, but in doing so places his new wife at risk for retaliation by his former lover.

When the Laird approaches the King for a divorce, he becomes suspicious when the King refuses his requests and demands to meet the new Lady Scott.  Something about Scott's new wife is familiar to the King. Laird's only alternative is to seduce his young bride as only a husband knows how but when betrayal forces Mary to seek out a former friend, a declaration of war will pit Laird Scott against the man Mary once considered family.The Highlander's Accidental Bride is a wonderful story of heartbreak and loss, love and hate.
