Annabel is nearly ready to become a full-fledged nun when her mother unexpectedly whisks her away from the abbey with virtually no explanation. Within a day, Annabel finds herself marrying a Scottish laird in the place of her runaway elder sister. Sheltered Annabel has no idea how to be a wife or run a keep, but she’ll need to learn in a hurry.
Laird Ross MacKay knows the marriage contract his late father arranged is voided by the sneaky substitution of the wrong sister, but when he sets eyes on Annabel, he’s keen to go along with the ceremony and make the shy beauty his wife. When attacks from an unknown enemy target Annabel soon after the wedding, Ross is determined to keep her safe even as his feelings for her grow ever deeper.
This was typical Lynsay Sands craziness and humor, and I really enjoyed it. Ross was a great hero and even though I sometimes wanted to shake Annabel and the villain was rather obvious, the story was still entertaining. I enjoyed the narration as well and will continue my audio pursuit to fill in the books I’ve missed in this series.
