Laird of the Black Isle

Nathalie Wong

Laird of the Black Isles is the seventh instalment to the MacGregors: Highland Heirs series. A historical romance novel involving a grieving highlander and a captive who just wants to go home to her family.

Characters

Lachlan MacKenzie is a grieving highlander who lost his wife and daughter in a fire a couple of years ago. He is lonely, a recluse by all means but he still takes care of those under his care.

Mailie MacGregor is feisty and headstrong. Even though she has been taken captive, she still has the courage to fight for her release. She is not meek nor shy to say what she really thinks.

Romance/Plot

Lachlan kidnaps Mailie because he is told that his daughter, who he though died in the fire with his wife, is still alive and can be exchanged for one another. Although there is a slim chance that it is true, he still holds onto that hope. He soon regrets his actions as he gets to know her more, watch her care for the orphans and so on.

Final Thoughts

While I have not read any novels in this series prior to reading this book, I was not confused at all. It definitely could be read as a standalone.

The romance seemed a bit rushed, and felt like it was an instant kind of love. However, Lachlan and Mailie's interactions were funny and sweet. I loved the addition of the orphans. The plot was well written.

I believe fans of this series will not be disappointed. I certainly wasn't! New readers who love historical novels set in Scotland will also like this book.

I love a good enemies to lovers romance, especially when the hero is a complete grump with a mushy center.

Laird of the Black Isle is book 7 in The MacGregors: Highland Heirs series. I have read most of the books in this series and I have been loving what I have read. 



I love Paula Quinn's writing and she always gets me hooked on the story and just like all previous books I have read by Paula I have just loved so much. 



I loved the characters and I love that I never have issues imagining the characters and the setting. 



If you are into Historical Romance that is an easy read then I do highly recommend this book. You don't have to read the previous books but I think you will want to because they are so darn good. 



I give this 5 out of 5.
