About the Author

Karen Ranney wanted to be a writer from the time she was five years old and filled her Big Chief tablet with stories. People in stories did amazing things and she was too shy to do anything amazing. Years spent in Japan, Paris, and Italy, however, not only fueled her imagination but proved she wasn't that shy after all.

Now a New York Times and USA Today bestseller, she prefers to keep her adventures between the covers of her books. Karen lives in San Antonio, Texas.

This is the fifth book in K. Ranneys "Highland Lord" series. Ahhh the MacRae brothers (and parents). Whudda clan! The whole series is absolutely great, but I thoroughly enjoyed this book (as well as book 4) the best of the five books. This story is about the youngest of five brothers (Douglas MacRae) and his love interest, Jeanne du Marchand and their many issues. A thoroughly wonderful (if not somewhat predictable) premise for an absolutely outstandingly told story. My only gripe is that this author has you holding your breath on the edge of a cliff with one foot perilously dangling over the side THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE BOOK!!! And then, BAM!... the last few chapters are played out and has you finally tippling off the cliff (as all the questions are finally answered and revealed), and whoooooosh...as you're falling to the end...suddenly all's well that ends well, and then SPLAT. It's over. Talk about cold water thrown in your face. I just wish the "all's well that ends well" ending started a bit sooner. I'm sorry to see this Saga end. I would like to know more about where the parents are as I cannot accept that they've simply been lost at sea!! Nope, can't accept it. And I'd like to know more about Hamish and Mary and their plight. More please!!

...and lose the sappy back covers on these books. Cheesy at best.

Karen Ranney delivers another installment in the Highland Lord series with her artful, signature narrative that makes the reader want to read every syllable of every word. Every word has a purpose, therefore, one doesn't just read about Ranney's characters but experiences them.

In wonderful Ranney style, the main characters come into the story with dark, torturous pasts, which makes them needy but also abrasive. The reader FEELS Jeanne's lonliness and rejection and FEARS Douglas' revenge, as well as SENSES their soulful attraction, especially through their sexual encounters. Likewise, one LOOKS around every corner to protect Jeanne from the lurking dangers of her father's greed and Mr. Hartley's lust. Through Margaret, one SEES trust and hopefulness and CONNECTS those qualities to Jeanne's tortured body and spirit. Best of all, Douglas MacRae saves Jeanne (and himself) with his MASTERFUL leadership, PROFOUND love, and GENTLE touch. Experiences!

Those who truly appreciate Ranney's multi-layered writing style will not want to miss reading this multi-layered story of Douglas and Jeanne, so in love that time, distance, torture, and regret can not keep them apart.

4.0 out of 5 stars a good ending to the highland lord series
Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2015

The characters were believable and if a bit sad and angry. I realize some avoidance is necessary for stories to have som length, but I prefer confrontation with the truth to fear of rejection, so this is the one flaw in the story line that I see not so much in the hero's actions but in the heroine's. Jeanne while gaining her courage in every other aspect of her life,could not face Douglas with her history, which to me made no sense because she had wanted him to rescue her. All in all a fairly good story however I enjoyed reading it and appreciated the family revisited. I would like to have seen Mary and Hamish vindicated and a more fitting punishment meted out to Charles Talbot.

Just finished this book, the last in the series of 5 books on the McRae family. What a book! I am going back and reading all 5 again. Karen brings everyone back in the McRae family for this beautiful and touching ending of the youngest McRae brother - Douglas. I have read a lot of Scottish romance including all of Hannah Howell's books and I have to say Karen Ranney is a genius. Her writing style is so flowing and we learn so much about this time period. I am kind of glad I didn't discover her earlier as I have a lot of her reading to look forward to.

3.0 out of 5 stars Love/Hate main characters
Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2014
The beginning of the book is very intense. Jeanne has a meeting with her father where it is revealed she is with child. She thinks it is no big deal and will marry the father, Douglas. Her father however gets quite nasty and says Douglas left her. Jeanne is then sent to a convent. Douglas meanwhile is told Jeanne wants nothing to do with him and he will never see her again. Kind of a typical set-up for a romance book, the big misunderstanding, but as of right now I am digging the intensity of the story.

I had a love-hate relationship with how Jeanne and Douglas skirt around their past. I love how Ranney writes the story so you can feel the pain and lingering emotions between them. There is such deep hurt for both of them, Jeanne and Douglas are almost scared to come right out and ask what happened for both of them 10yrs ago. On the other hand I hate how if they would just address the past all misunderstanding would be cleared up and they could move on. Guess there wouldn't be much of a book if that happened though right?

There is not a lot of action in this book, except towards the end where Jeanne's father makes an appearance. This book is more about watching two very compelling characters come together. This book was a really fast read for me, I seemed to breeze right through it. It felt like a comfort book, the kind where your emotions don't get too high or too low. It was a nice (is nice the kiss of death when you describe something?) book. I find I don't really have a lot of comments for it, because not a lot happened in the story. However, Jeanne and Douglas were very well written characters who draw you into their pain and love for each other. If you want to read a book that is engaging and different than a lot out there I would recommend this one.

The first book in this series "One Man's Love" was very good and the second,third, and fifth (I reviewed them on here) good reads but probably not ones you would read again. The fourth book I really disliked and would recommend to skip all together. If you want to read books in the 18th century that involve a different storyline than the tried and true ballrooms, dukes, and Almacks I would suggest this series.

Oh and note to the publishing agency, I much prefer seeing a man's chest instead of a woman's on the cover.
