![]() ![]() The Twelfth Night of Christmas - Margaret Moore - 3 /5 - After determining that marriage must be like a prison, Giselle asks her guardian uncle for a boon - to be able to refuse a man’s hand in marriage if she feels she and her groom do not suit. It is a good origin story for the Sutherland series though. Maybe if this had been longer their relationship could have been built up to have me believing it. This was pretty cute, but a bit too short for me to believe that Duncan’s love had grown strong enough for such an honor-bound man to set aside his promise without first talking to Janet. But when his wealth is returned to him, honor demands he do the right thing. As he begins to fall in love with Kara, he forgets about his previously planned future. ![]() But he soon learns that he’s been robbed of his portable wealth, and without he it cannot marry even if he does get home, so he stays to help….partly also to please Kara, the beautiful young woman who nursed him back to health. But Duncan has no desire to fight another man’s war again. He’s a dream come true for them because he’s a soldier and could help them defeat the MacGory clan. But before he can make it, his injury waylays him in a secluded valley with a pagan (sort of) clan being persecuted by their neighbors. Kara’s Gift - Suzanne Barclay - 4 /5 - Duncan Mclellan comes back from the Crusades a wealthy man and able to marry his sweetheart Janet. ![]()
