In the wilderness of 14th century Northumbria, Lady Isabel discovers just how dangerous the Borderlands can be. With the loss of her voice and her hearing, there is little hope left for her. But when a brooding knight rescues her, she vows never to become a victim again and buries the secrets of her past in the hope that those hunting her will never find her in the Borderlands.
Jake is astonished to come across the beautiful Isabel, near to death, on his brother’s lands. Bringing her back to his brother’s home, he finds himself longing for something more from the courageous woman, something that he thought he would never want again. Isabel works her way into his scarred heart and opens Jake up to loving once more. But will Isabel’s secrets destroy their bond? And with his charismatic brother, Dominic, charming her, does he even stand a chance?
MY REVIEW

5 stars!
Hotness factor: filled with steamy passion!

Okay, mea culpa… I’ve planned this. I read the Samantha Holt’s novel To Steal a Highlander's Heart back in September and I promised to myself that I would read The Borderland Legacy. Once again, I was instantly hooked!
Jake and Izzy… Jake is this big beautiful lad with a heart as big as his muscles. Isabel, Izzy, is the lucky lass he saved from a certain death. A love match made in Scottish heaven! If only her father didn’t have other plans for her. ‘The course of true love never did run smooth' - W. Shakespeare. I believed I used this before J
I simply love this book! The characters are funny and passionate. The story is a tale as old as time (wink). The length of the book is perfect for an nice afternoon read, with crumpets and tea (I miss England). I recommend and pimp this book. Samantha Holt, I am one of your cheerleaders!
Lord Dominic is in need of a wife. With the reivers, the wild and dangerous criminals that haunt the borderlands, breathing down his neck and his brother now married, he needs a strong woman by his side. So when he finds out about an old marriage contract between him and his neighbour’s daughter, he vows to give the mysterious woman a chance. Upon meeting the beautiful, feisty maiden, he vows to make her his wife.
Lucy Montgomery wants nothing to do with the arrogant lord. She doesn’t understand his interest in her. Surely a man like Dominic could never fall for a woman like her? Hurt by the past, she refuses to believe that she is anything more than a game to him. If only she didn’t find him quite so charming.
Can Dominic persuade Lucy that she is more than just another woman to him? And with the reivers growing bolder, are there worse dangers than Lucy saying ‘Nay’?
MY REVIEW
Dominic and The Borderland Beauty
4.5 stars
Hotness factor: Instant chemistry…

Hear hear! Dominic, the dashing charming lord of Thornewall, is in desperate need of a wife and apparently, he had already been contracted to marry one (is that how you say this?). Lucy Montgomery aka Dominic’s betrothed might be the one woman who seems to be immune to his charms. Or is she?
Dominic and Lucy are simply adorable. Fated to be together, he’s charming but cocky, she’s stubborn and pride, Jane Austen would have been proud. Jake and Izzy are still my favourite couple of the series but Dominic and Luce are really giving them a run for their money. If you read the first book you just have to know how the story unfolds for poor handsome Dominic. My pom-poms are high in the air, like I just don’t care, cheering for this sublime series! PS: is it just me or shouldn't we swap the titles? LOL
