Editor's Notes and Comments:

Brief Book Summary:
~ A Defiant Lady ~

In Scotland's darkest hour, an English warrior dressed all in grey has come for her. Blessed with the kenning, Lady Tamlyn MacShane foresaw this day, when the ruthless Lord Julian Challon would conquer her land -- and her heart. She is determined to resist him...but she is no match for his strength...or his sensuality...

~ A Resolute Lord ~

To Julian, the proud Scotswoman should be nothing more than a captive. Yet Tamlyn's fiery Beauty ensnares him, body and soul. Now, the warrior known as the Black Dragon is in danger of falling under the spell that cannot be broken---the spell of love....

User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Enjoyable light read.
I thought this book was a very light and enjoyable read. I am shocked at the harsh reviews. I can't find anything so bad that it requires such negativity. It is not a stellar book, but I did enjoy it. The beginning immediately got my attention, and I found myself wanting to read to the end. I am also very interested in the subsequent story. Damian and Aithinne are both interesting characters and I am excited to see how their romance unwinds.

Not the most renown romance, but pleasurable.



Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Awkward
I really wanted to enjoy this book. Unfortunately, that was far from the case. I am generally a fan of this genre (who doesn't love a Scottish accent?!?) but found the plot line to be boring and awkward. I did not feel there was any character development. The heroine was stupid and irritating and the hero overbearing and irritating. The paranormal aspects of this novel felt like they had been thrown in at the last second so that this novel could be classified as both paranormal and historical.

I also found the writing style of this book to be unpleasant to read. The way and style in which a book is written have just as much (if not more) importance than the plot. Is this a high-school aged author? I am hoping this is an anomaly and that there are not multiple novels available that are this poorly written.



Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Misled
[...]I found the writing to be quite amaturish and surprised to see that this author is not new. [...]

So, I found this book to not be up to the standard of this genre - it felt stilted in it's writing. I can't really recommend it.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - loved it!
After reading this book, I cant wait to get my hands on her subsequent book.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Great beginning but lost some of the magic as the story developed...
The very first couple of chapters of this book had me completely mesmorized, the instant attraction to one another, the Fae mysteries working their magic and a soul that badly needed to be healed... It had the makings of a book that one would read and re-read until the pages fell from the book from overuse but all too quickly it went downhill.

Deborah MacGillivray was on the right track early on but it became boring and repetative all too quickly. I plan to read more of her books, she started out captivating the reader but that captivation turned into repetition, there is only so much excitement that one can draw from an apple tree no matter how ancient and powerful it may be.
