This sinfully sexy new romance from Maya Banks features a remarkable woman whose rare gift teaches a gruff Scottish warrior how to listen with his heart.
Eveline Armstrong is fiercely loved and protected by her powerful clan, but outsiders consider her “touched.” Beautiful, fey, with a level, intent gaze, she doesn’t speak. No one, not even her family, knows that she cannot hear. Content with her life of seclusion, Eveline has taught herself to read lips and allows the outside world to view her as daft. But when an arranged marriage into a rival clan makes Graeme Montgomery her husband, Eveline accepts her duty—unprepared for the delights to come. Graeme is a rugged warrior with a voice so deep and powerful that his new bride can hear it, and hands and kisses so tender and skilled that he stirs her deepest passions.
Graeme is intrigued by the mysterious Eveline, whose silent lips are ripe with temptation and whose bright, intelligent eyes can see into his soul. As intimacy deepens, he learns her secret. But when clan rivalries and dark deeds threaten the wife he has only begun to cherish, the Scottish warrior will move heaven and earth to save the woman who has awakened his heart to the beautiful song of a rare and magical love.
First Line(s): "Tis maddness!" Bowen Montgomery exclaimed.
My Review: Maya Banks has done it again. She is brilliant!
A perfect story with some much depth that there is no way this new series of hers won't be a hit!
If you are looking for a wonderfully written historical romance that will have you from page one, pick this one up today. You won't be sorry you did.
So many times as a romance reviewer you think... " what's left? What's new?". A lot of times you can feel like you have already read this story line from another author in another book. But I found Never Seduce a Scot to be refreshing and new. The characters are so real and honest that you find yourself cheering for ALL of them!
I will wait ( not so patiently might I add) for the next installment of this book!
My Rating:
On a side note, I'm behind again in my reviews. I think I need to just realize that my days of being caught up on this blog are long gone. I will continue to do my best and that's all I can do.
Until next time... Happy Reading!

P.S. I think people will totally understand that "real life" comes before a blog. Keep the reviews coming!
