![]() But as a product of his time (presumably), he has to show his strength by never admitting to weakness. She’s okay with this marriage for the sake of alliance, and she thinks that Caelen will be good for her clan, but ay ay ay! This guy needs to learn a little bit about leading with empathy. She dresses like a man and fights like a warrior. Rionna has been able to live as she likes for all of her life. Caelen also dresses down Rionna in public. We therefore experience some uncomfortable moments, like a very uncomfortable, very public kiss in the great hall. And, true to all of the standards of medieval romance, Caelen thinks he can keep his woman in line. As one does, he has become an emotional iceberg. Caelen has some emotional baggage because when he was young, he fell in love and the result was his clan being slaughtered, his father and sister-in-law murdered. Caelen McCabe has stepped in to marry Rionna McDonald after his brother Alaric married someone else. Here we veer into solid bodice ripper territory. ![]() Overall: If you like a Highlander bodice ripper, you’ll probably like this Plot: Arranged marriage, clan takeover, battle of wills ![]() Heat Factor: It’s Maya Banks, so yeah, there’s a lot of the sexĬharacter Chemistry: He acts from duty, she acts from being annoyed ![]()
