Book Review: Highlander Most Wanted by Maya Banks


Synopsis:

In Highlander Most Wanted, a reclusive woman content to live in the shadows shows a Highland warrior the true meaning of love.
  
Genevieve McInnes is locked behind the fortified walls of McHugh Keep, captive of a cruel laird who takes great pleasure in ruining her for any other man. Yet when Bowen Montgomery storms the gates on a mission of clan warfare, Genevieve finds that her spirit is bent but not broken. Still, her path toward freedom remains uncertain. Unable to bear the shame of returning to a family that believes her dead or to abandon others at the keep to an imposing new laird, Genevieve opts for the peaceful life of an abbess. But Bowen’s rugged sensuality stirs something deep inside her that longs to be awakened by his patient, gentle caress—something warm, wicked, and tempting.
 
Bowen seizes his enemy’s keep, unprepared for the brooding and reclusive woman who captures his heart. He’s enchanted by her fierce determination, her unusual beauty, and her quiet, unfailing strength. But wooing her will take more than a seasoned seducer’s skill. For loving Genevieve, he discovers, means giving her back the freedom that was stolen from her—even if it means losing her forever.

Review:

Again, Maya Bank is an incredible writer. She has the ability to make just endearing and genuine characters that we grow to love to read. This time she writes the story of Genevieve and Bowen. At first I was very apprehensive in reading this story. Genevieve is a very must broken character on the outside however; as the story progressed we could see that she actually a stronger character than most.

The scene between Bowen and Genevieve are so real and intense. However, I didn’t like the fact that Bowen didn’t go after Genevieve right away.  Beautiful ending :)

It’s a good read but has some flaws. I can’t wait to read Maya’s next book “Highland Ever After.” I want to thank Netgalley and Edelweiss for the opportunity to read this ARC book. Thank you so much!
