Although Gavin’s presence on her lands was the reason her husband was suspected of treason, she knows he is the only person able and willing to help her now. Fiona has been widowed, stripped of her lands, and her son has been injured and left with a constant limp. He seeks shelter for himself and his men, many of whom have been wounded in a recent battle, and he knows he can trust her husband, his secret ally, to provide it for him.Ī year later it is Fiona seeking shelter from Gavin, as she and her stepson appear in Scotland at his doorstep. Still, she doesn’t expect danger to arrive as abruptly as it does in the form of Lord Gavin McLendon. Tensions are rising between England and Scotland as Robert the Bruce gains supporters, and Fiona knows that the small corner of the world where she rules as the Baroness of Arundel will not long remain peaceful. Lady Fiona Libourg is living at the border of England during a time of turmoil. But I know better, and so when I opened How to Be a Scottish Mistress I put aside any and all initial skepticism and let myself get sucked into the story. I know quite a few people who refuse to try them based on their often outrageous covers and names. Although I do love reading romance novels, I would be the first to admit they often have ridiculous titles.
