Publisher Description
Awarded a B.R.A.G Medallion for Romance/Historical Fiction.
The Reformed Rogues series follows the lives of three fearsome Highland Warriors who form a bond stronger than any blood tie. It is set in 11th Century Scotland during the reign of 'The Red King.' Recommend reading books and series in order.
Highland Chieftain Beiste MacGregor is a ruthlessly ambitious warrior with the viciousness of a beast. He has little interest in women beyond the bedchamber. On the order of the Red King, he reluctantly travels with his men to the lowlands to formalize a betrothal to a woman from clan Dunbar. He is not prepared for the troublesome but striking clan healer he meets on the way, who not only infuriates him but stirs something deep within his soul.
Amelia Dunbar is a clan healer and the illegitimate daughter of the Earl of Dunbar. When she is not serving as a companion to her half-sister, she is tirelessly attending to the sick in her clan. Amelia has plans to find her mother's people in the Highlands and is about to embark on her journey when she is waylaid by the arrival of fearsome warriors. One warrior, they call 'the Beast', rouses her ire and sets her heart racing at the same time.

Customer Reviews
True to her word
Definitely delivered what the author stated. This had some good moments, an overall fun read. The characters were great. Villain was creepy and shadowy. MCs were well matched. Secondary players were likeable. I don’t have much aversions in reading but there were a few scenes of violence if you don’t like that. Although it was not described in gory detail. I like fun mystery. I definitely will read the rest of the series because of the characters. As stated by the author the spice was slightly milder side in romance terms but worked for the characters and was not closed doors. Hopefully this is what you are looking for in a romance.
Good book, but…
The book has a good story & lovable character. Obviously though, no one proofread or edited it. Some parts I had to slow way down & a few I even had to reread. If it weren’t for that, I would gladly read the rest of the books in the series. I just can’t justify spending money on a book that is somewhat difficult to read.
Editor wanted
This author should learn how to structure a sentence and use punctuation. Or get a decent editor. Good thing it was free.
