His Convenient Highland Wedding (Mills & Boon Historical) (The Lochmore Legacy, Book 1)

This is the first book in the The Lochmore Legacy series, which centres on Lochmore Castle through the ages! Earl’s daughter Flora McCrieff brought shame on her family once when she refused to marry a lecherous Duke, now she discovers she must enter a marriage of convenience with the impossibly rich but low born Lachlan McNeill. Following their wedding they return to his home Lochmore Castle which he bought a year ago. I was drawn into the book from the prologue when Flora was a girl & discovered a skeleton & brooch in a locked tower of her family home. An engrossing read with a well written story that flows effortlessly. The characters are well rounded & have plenty of depth. I adored both Flora & Lachlan, she's the strong lady who’s intelligent & caring but also insecure, Lachlan whilst he's the brilliant businessman & is a self made man he’s also very protective but insecure. I loved how their relationship grew throughout the book from strangers who meet for the first time at the altar to true partners. The book took me through a gamut of emotions & my heart bled for Flora’s treatment by so called Ladies & also bled for all Lachlan & Anna had suffered. There is the mystery of the brooch which wasn't resolved & which makes me want to read the rest of the series one book after another & will be counting the days until the next book releases. My honest review is for a special copy I voluntarily read
