Juliana takes on the refurbishing of the house, builders and repairmen, staffing the place, along with keeping the darkness and the nightmares at bay for Elliot, and Elliot sinks into Juliana, the balm for his soul, the soothing peace he craves to the deepest depths. With him are his Indian servants who have helped him since his escape from the torture he endured while held captive, young Pritti, and his flamboyant and sometimes confused uncle.

When she quite shyly proposes he take the place of her lost groom, Elliot doesn’t hesitate. But knowing it’s Juliana, the woman who kept him sane during the darkest of times in India, everything becomes clearer than ever before.

Then she finds out through Lord Cameron that the weasel up and married his piano teacher the day before. It’s Juliana’s wedding day and everyone is waiting for the groom. Elliot and Juliana are a terrific couple all on their own and I thoroughly enjoyed them.

While we get a fascinating story with a tortured and sexy hero and a heroine who loves him as he is, those Mackenzies show up full force along the way!īut if they hadn’t been in even this small part of the story, that would have been okay. Fortunately, this author is one who knows her readers. I mean, it’s those Mackenzie brothers we love, and since all of their stories have been told – with the exception of Daniel, of course – this is the only way for the series to continue. I didn’t know what to expect when I discovered Jennifer Ashley was going to be giving us McBride stories in her Highland Pleasures series.
