Beautiful Clover Sherwood never expected such a cruel fate. Her father's death has left her penniless, ostracized from Pennsylvania society, and abandoned by her fiancé. All she has now is a grieving mother, two hungry little brothers and no prospects. . .until a wealthy Kentucky backwoodsman with a deep Scottish burr comes to town--and inspires her to make a most daring move. . .

It's no secret that rugged, roughhewn Scotsman, Ballard MacGregor is ready to marry. Nonetheless, he is surprised by genteel Clover's sudden proposal. . .and more than pleased. For the lass's sweet innocence is bewitching. But settlement life proves harsh on his refined young wife. And Ballard fears that unless he can awaken her passion and win her love--as she has won his--he may lose his Kentucky bride. . .

"The superbly talented Howell never disappoints." --Romantic Times

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Romance Novel
Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2010

Hannah Howell never seizes to grab your attention from the very first page to very last sentence. Her dive into a western novel from her many Scottish Novels was a pleasant surprise, of course who can resist in the MacGregor Scottish taste in it, either!

The books starts of with a young lady who has been jilted by her fiance. With her family in financial woes she makes a gutsy move and proposes to a rough woodsman gentleman who saves her from the clutches of a few unruly men with unspeakable motives. The woodsman ends up being jilted by his soon-to-be fiance who he finds with the young lady's previous suitor.

This book goes from a beautiful suburb to the rough woods of a young Kentucky. A definite must have for those who enjoy romance novels with twists and, of course, those who enjoy Hannah Howell!

great writing by Hannah Howell. I love all of her books I have read, this one is no exception, Clover took a chance on love and made it work, I know it is fiction but when I read it the characters seem so real

5.0 out of 5 stars Really loved that the couple was together from the beginning.
Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2015

Although I prefer Scottish and English historical books, I really liked this book's story line. I have often wondered why more are not written, wherein the couple is together and building a relationship throughout the story, while dealing with obstacles that come up. It is refreshing to not have the constant, "Does he/she love me?" settled until the last chapter. One note I will make about all of Ms. Howell's books that I could really do without is the men "washing up" themselves and their partners after sex. It is just wrong, no one does that and it's frankly creepy. If you read this and know of an author who writes more about the couples struggles together, please let me know.

This was another excellent book by this author. The storyline was well written and the characters were developed throughout the story so they became very believable and real.
I enjoyed how the author developed the hero and heroine.
This was a wonderful love story.

3.0 out of 5 stars Just eh
Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2021

I usually love HH’s books or dislike them. This one fell into the latter group. I liked the premise of the story and had high hopes for it. Both h and H were insecure and constantly doubting the other. I never felt the love between the two. It just felt surface level. The story had some fun parts but was overall pretty boring and predictable. It ended suddenly too. He talks the whole books about having “bairns” and then we never find out if they have any…

Side note: It kind of bothers me when HH has short heroines (no problem there) but then she describes them as child like, and it’s even worse when their lover calls them “child” that just grosses me out.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Page-Turner
Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2017
This book is about a Kentucky Scotsman and a newly poverty-stricken young woman. When Clover Sherwood is jilted by her fiancee, she asks the Scotsman she's just met to marry her. Clover has 3 dependents: her mother and twin brothers. This seems to be a simple solution, but it is not.

The book was a page turner with few lapses in the action. I enjoyed it.
