Publisher's summary

With few other options, Scarlet Worthington flees from her home in England to the wild Highlands of Scotland to help her sister run a school for ladies. There, Scarlet begins to rebuild her own shattered confidence by recruiting a fierce Campbell warrior to teach her and the students how to protect themselves from villains and scoundrels. The intimidating Aiden Campbell both infuriates Scarlet and ignites a fire inside her as she works closely with him to hone her new skills.

Burned in a fierce fire, set by English soldiers, Highland warrior, Aiden Campbell, has finally healed enough to take temporary command of his clan. That's where his focus should be instead of dealing with the feisty, beautiful Sassenach who asks him to teach her students.

When Scarlet's past stalks her up into Scotland, her nightmares come alive, and Aiden's lessons are put to the test. With his own ghosts from the past making him despise English women, Aiden fights the inferno of passion that's grown between them, a different kind of wild fire that could prove just as deadly.

Adventurous Romance

In this second book of the series, the main heroine is committed to staying in the far north, but when she comes across a rugged Highlander, who has been injured and is very weary of English ladies, she is intrigued. The story stands out because it could it stands as its own Novel, and the previous novel is mentioned, but not necessarily needed to be read to understand. Scarlet leads the school for ladies that she and her sister started and encourages them to be bold and brave. There is an exciting into the story. I’m not going to give it away, but it is worth reading.

Loved getting to know Aiden

Wow do I love this series! This one is just as good as book 1. We get to see and know more about Aiden. He was so crotchety in the last story. Its fun to see such a turn around from him. Scarlett we knew or guessed what her issue was back in England. Well…not in its entirety. It is actually so much more involved than I thought.
We also get to see kore of “the roses” from the school. They are changing and blossoming as well. We have the added Snowball and then there is The Robert who add some fun.

Overall I cant get enough of these characters. I did listen to this on audio and Justine Eyre did a great job! I love listening to her different voicings and her Scottish brogue.

Perfect Read!

Scarlett has some of the best secrets of an h. I worried greatly on how Heather would get things to work out. Let's just say, with a king interested in her, I worried she wouldn't find a way into Aiden's life. She's a strong character, only made stronger by everything that's happened in her life. What she lived through... absolutely horrible, and I'm happy for the happily ever after.

Aiden is hard to resist. He's got the tough no-one-can-break-through exterior that only Scarlett knows how to hammer away at. Love, an obsessed ex-lover, secrets, and a lustful king - this book has it all. Just make sure you have enough time to finish. Once you start, you can't put it down.

I loved the idea of the ladies learning to protect themselves. I think it needed a better reading experience.
