This is the second book in the A No Ordinary Hero Novels and I really liked it. The story is fast paced with plenty of drama and suspense and the characters are fun and entertaining. The chemistry between Marjorie and Graeme is steamy. An enjoyable historical read.

My Hero My Highlander!!!!

Viscount Graeme Maxton for the past eight years has his hands full raising his younger siblings. It hasn't been easy and things have gotten just a little harder for Graeme what with his new neighbour the Duke of Lattimer and his troubles with the Duke of Dunncraigh . And his siblings just gave him a heap of problems - of the female kind and that female is none other than the Duke of Lattimers sister Lady Marjorie - now their captive to be used as a pawn in the conflict with the laird of their clan and Lattimer her brother!

All Lady Marjorie wanted was to visit her brother and meet the woman he's to marry and not be abducted by some highland savage children who don't know how to treat a lady, unfortunately for her not all plans work out as planned.
Graeme is shocked at all the events unfolding but try as he might can't seem to rectify the situation.

A tantalizing story full of twists and drama. Lots of witty bander and steamy moments between Graeme and Marjorie. With enchanting descriptive detail that draws the reader in. Well written with humour will have you laughing at some of the antics and secondary characters. A must read for all who love brawny Highlanders and spitfire heroines that bring them to heel.

I received this ARC from the publisher and NetGalley for my honest unbiased opinion!

This is Book 2 in the "No Ordinary Hero" Series and I enjoyed it a lot. This read is entertaining, with a great romance and fun.

The heroine, Marjorie Forrester, has inherited her brother's mansion in London. Gabriel, her soldier brother goes to Scotland to inherit a Dukedom. But the ton doesn't accept her and she feels lonely so she decides to travel to Scotland to her brother's wedding. When she stops in an inn she is kidnapped.
Laird Graeme Maxton is in charge of his 3 younger brothers and doesn't have a lot of money so they decide to help him by kidnapping a lady. Graeme doesn't know how to solve the situation and decides to keep her until he can return her without more problems.

And this is where the real fun starts. Nice read and very entertaining!

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book provided by the publisher via NetGalley

No ordinary hero indeed, just a loving big brother trying to fix the mess his younger brothers made. No, kidnapping the sister of the duke is not going to improve things for the Clan.
Marjorie, of course, was not always the sister of a duke. He inherited after the siblings were grown and she is having a difficult transition to Lady of the Ton. She decides to leave London behind and head to Scotland to her brother's wedding. She doesn't make it; instead, three ruffians kidnap her. Their brother, Graeme, is in a dispute with the duke and these boys think having Marjorie as a bargaining chip will help them.
Graeme understands that's not the case and has to figure his way out of what could be a disaster. In the meantime, what to do with his beautiful prisoner (chain her to a bed?)
As kidnappings go, this is a light-hearted one. She is no wilting violet and the interactions between the H/h make for fun reading.The resolution is all that romance lovers could want, and their HEA is as sweet as the journey is enjoyable. A winner! (I received an eARC from NetGalley. This is my honest opinion.

Very enjoyable!! I loved it from beginning to end.

Lady Marjorie is a social outcast in London. When she finds out her brother is about to be married, so she sets out to attend the wedding, whether it's advisable or not. Lo and behold she is kidnapped by a band of ruffians and little does she realize the oldest is all of 16. But they honestly think they're helping their older brother.
Graeme is desperately trying to hold on to his lands that has been in his family for generations when his brother kidnap his neighbors sister. And.... he cannot send Lady Marjorie back without his kin getting in trouble. What's a Highlander to do?
Suzanne Enoch is one of my favorite authors and she did not disappoint with MY ONE TRUE HIGHLANDER. It has a good storyline and great character interaction, especially between Graeme and his brothers. The romance was a little too fast paced, it seemed they went from 0 to 60 in no time at all. But other than that it was a great read.

The premise was a good one but I kept losing interest in this book. Perhaps because so much of it was confined to the one setting of Graeme’s house. That’s only speculation. I would read a few pages and set the book aside. This is not how I used to read a Suzanne Enoch book. I’m a fan of this author but I found myself bored with this one. Not even the side characters of Graeme’s brothers or Marjorie’s companion could rouse me to be interested. I take total responsibility for this attitude because I do think that those who love stories set in the Scottish Highlands will like this book, especially those who want to follow up on book one of this series. The writing is good and the characters are well developed. We met Marjorie in Book #1 and it was good to see her star in this story.

Witty, hilarious and understated. A love story with a difference!

The major part of this novel takes place in the raw Scottish Highlands of 1812. Graeme, Viscount Maxton, is struggling to keep his crofters and land together. His young brothers decide to take things in hand, by kidnapping the sister of their new neighbour, the Duke of Lattimer, and coincidentally, the deadly enemy of their clan chief, the Duke of Dunncraigh. A clan chief Graeme constantly bumps up against, a man he doesn't like or trust. A bully of a man who doesn't care for his clan as is his responsibility.
Meanwhile in London, Lady Marjorie Forrester's attempts to take her place in society are not going so well. In fact she's failing dismally. So why not hive off from her house in Mayfair and surprise her brother at his coming wedding in the Highlands?
At first I thought, 'Where is this plot going?' By the end I was smiling at the daft situations that arose with those three brothers and laughing at the repartee between Graeme and Ree.
A heart warming story, with the added spice of dangerous foes, improbable secondary characters, the two leading characters with a decided sense of the ridiculous strongly attracted to each other, and three young men who just need to be handled in the right way.
A really enjoyable read!

A NetGalley ARC
(April 2017)

Suzanne Enoch continues her No Ordinary Hero series with the second book - My One True Highlander. Ms. Enoch is one of my favorite authors, and her books set in the Scottish Highlands never fail to disappoint. My One True Highlander is a heartwarming and fun romance with sweet moments and sexy interludes, and I highly recommend it.

Marjorie is headed to the Highlands from London in order to surprise her brother, the Duke of Lattimer, and attend his upcoming wedding. Right before she reaches her brother’s estate, she’s clumsily kidnapped by three brothers ranging in age from eight to sixteen. The Maxton siblings thought to “borrow” Marjorie to use her to bribe their enemy, the Duke of Dunncreigh and chief of the Clan Maxwell, who has been threatening their eldest brother with financial ruin while also feuding with Marjorie’s brother. They plan to give Marjorie to the Maxwell in order for him to use her as a tool against her brother thus earning them his gratitude and a reprieve from his threats.

When the boys bring Marjorie home to their brother, Graeme, he’s not happy. He knows giving Marjorie to the Maxwell would be dangerous to an innocent woman, and the plan would surely backfire. Unfortunately, the brothers are all potentially in a load of trouble for kidnapping her; therefore, he can’t let Marjorie go until he can figure how to get out of this situation unscathed. What starts as brothers making a somewhat-innocent attempt to fix a tough situation, becomes much more than anyone bargained for. As Graeme and Marjorie get to know each other - albeit during odd and sometimes tense circumstances – they discover a fierce attraction and begin to develop feelings for each other.

The Maxwell brothers are an endearing family and add a charming touch to the story. Graeme has raised his three brothers for the past seven years since he was twenty years old. It’s a heavy responsibility for a man so young, but he manages the best he can and loves his brothers fiercely. They are a sweet family unit and make this a truly heartwarming romance, especially because Marjorie has never had much of a family but has longed for one.
Graeme is everything you’d want in a hero - he’s a little bit alpha-male but with a sensitive and romantic side. He and Marjorie have sizzling chemistry, trade hilarious banter and hare intimate and heartfelt moments. My One True Highlander is a wonderful Scottish historical romance.

Gabriel Forrester has been taking care of his sister Marjorie "Ree" since he was 17 years old. Going into the army to support them, he sent her to the best schools he could afford. Never seeing much of him Marjorie made the most of her life as a paid companion and set her dreams of being accepted by the ton behind her. Then one day Gabriel came with news of him being made the Duke of Lattimer of the clan Maxwell and everything changed. With her dreams know in front of her she has everything she's ever wanted but not excepted. Lady Marjorie received news that Gabriel is to wed. She's tired of missing out on his life and decides to surprise him and attend the wedding.
Graeme Maxton's life changed the day his parents died and left him with three brothers to care for and his corner of the Maxwell clan to lead. With all the responsibilities he put his wants away and step in to the roll of parent and Laird. With the war between the Maxwell chieftain and Lattimer there is a price on anything that will take Lattimer down.
Unknowingly Ree walks right into the middle of a building war. Thinking they are helping Graeme his brothers kidnap Ree for Graeme to turn over to their chieftain so he'll leave them be. Graeme now has to protect the willful and spirited Lady Marjorie and keep his brothers out of harm for their foolish act.
Neither Graeme nor Ree are what the other thinks and can they find the life they never knew they wanted or will it be taken away before they admit what they want.
**I loved everything about this book and it's multiple main characters.

I'm a huge fan of Suzanne Enoch's book, so I picked up this book with great expectation because for a long time ago I didn't read anything from her.

The story is about Lady Marjorie Forrester, whose brother Gabriel Forrester, received the title of Duke of Lattimer not long ago, since the old Duke died without leaving heirs.
Marjorie went from someone who needed to work, to someone who employed other people. She had a beautiful Mayfair house, and Mrs Hortensia Giswell, who loved to teach Marjorie how much she still had to learn to be a duke's sister.

In fact, Marjorie was marginalized by London society. So when her brother wrote to her that he was about to marry a Scotswoman-and that she didn't have to go to the wedding because it was winter and the trip would be difficult-Marjorie didn't think twice and left the next day.

Trouble was, her brother was not welcome in Scotland. He had been doing some things that were bothering the other lairds.

Graeme, Viscount Maxton, had his lands and younger brothers to care for, but it was to him that the other nobles went to complain about Forrester and told him to "take care of the subject."
The younger brothers, with fear, decided to help.
When they heard at an Inn that Marjorie was staying and that she was the sister of the new duke, they kidnapped her.

And now Graeme had a new problem on his hands.
The Lady was not subservient, but a wild cat, and Graeme, in addition to needing to avoid a "war", falls in love with her.

The plot is interesting, but for some reason, I didn't feel any connection with the story or the characters. It all seemed like a bad movie that passed before my eyes.

But this is my opinion and I am sure many other readers have loved Ms Enoch's book.
3,5 stars

This book was just ok. The book started fine but then it got boring and I just had to force myself to read this one.

I like the part of the three kids who kidnap a woman using a sack and a wagon. It was terrible, but at the same time, funny and clever.

I find Marjorie as a strong headed lady who do not really fit in London Society. I enjoy the things that she did so she could escape and how sharp her mind is.

Graeme is a Highlander that you would easily fall in love with not only because of his physique and accent, but how deep is his love for his brothers, tenants and his land. I admire him a lot.

Duglas, Connell and Brendan were adorable to read and Mrs. Giswell was a cherry on the top in this sweet tale.

My One True Highlander by Suzanne Enoch explores the captor/captive trope, though with a twist. Because our captor isn’t actually the true captor. By keeping our heroine, Lady Marjorie Forrester—sister of a duke—captive, Graeme, Viscount Maxton, is actually keeping her safe. So even though we want to hate Graeme when he forbids Marjorie from leaving, we can’t. His intentions are good, despite his initial treatment of the lady. Even more sweet, in an odd twisted way, Graeme will stop at nothing to protect his three younger brothers. Younger brothers responsible for said kidnapping of Lady Marjorie—without their older brother’s knowledge. Watching Marjorie slowly win over all four brothers is heartwarming, especially as she fights to win Brandon’s trust. Brandon is the oldest after Graeme, and the mastermind behind kidnapping plot.

Unbeknownst to Marjorie, there’s a turf war going on between her newly titled brother, and the Maxwell, the Duke of Dunncraigh. When Marjorie receives a letter from her brother that he’s to be married, she quickly leaves London, glad to escape the condescending treatment she’s received after she transformed from a lady’s companion to the sister of a duke. I don’t blame Marjorie. The ton’s scrutiny can be harsh, indeed.

When word gets out Marjorie is in the vicinity, Graeme’s brothers decide the answer to their prayers after their estate continues to bleed, is to trade the duke’s sister over to Dunncraigh in return for some coin. Only Graeme is no friend to Dunncraigh. Rather than be beholden to Dunncraigh and have Marjorie’s brother as an enemy, he keeps Marjorie’s whereabouts secret until he comes up with a plan.

Marjorie is not your typical member of aristocracy, and contrary to Graeme’s initial impression, he eventually realizes Marjorie is everything he’d want in a woman. If only his brothers hadn’t gotten him in this predicament.

Graeme sent a glance back at the slender figure curled on the bed. He was worried, but not about what Lady Marjorie Forrester might attempt next. Rather, he was troubled because in all of her protests over her treatment and what she would and wouldn’t tolerate, she hadn’t uttered a single protest about the kiss. He had no complaints about it, for damned certain. In fact, he wanted to kiss her again.

In the meantime, Marjorie realizes everyone’s predicament including her own, and takes matters into her own hands. Including how she’ll interact with the testy, handsome, yet compassionate viscount, who only wants the best for his people and his family. And even though she’d been quite selective in the past and wouldn’t even let anyone close to kissing her, with the Viscount? All reason dissolves.

And she certainly couldn’t have imagined her captor kissing her—or that she might possibly have enjoyed it.

The way he’d swooped in, as if he couldn’t quite stop himself, his warm mouth on hers, the scent of whisky and wilderness...She touched her fingers to her lips.

And once his lips finds her the first time, she craves him. I don’t blame her. From the sounds of it, he’s quite the master kisser.

His mouth, warm and surprisingly sensuous for such a heathen, touched hers. It made her want to melt into him, to feel his strong, hard arms around her. This was so, so wrong, but it didn’t feel that way.

I say, Lady Marjorie, when something feels that good with someone with as massive of a heart as the Viscount? There’s nothing wrong about it at all. Anticipating how they get out of the mess they’re in without inciting a war between clans also keeps the pages turning. And the ending? I’m quite satisfied.

Let me be clear on something, I don't care what the situation, when you are having sex with someone you kidnapped and are holding prisoner it is a form of rape in my small mind. Just because it may seem consensual I see Stockholm Syndrome, call me odd but it is a bias I am not ashamed of at all.

I have talked to many people that have read historical romance for years (I tend to avoid it) and have no problem with swooning heroines and kidnapping so obviously it must happen a lot in this genre which I can add to my list of why I only read the ones that have been well written by authors that write original stories. Sadly this one teeters on the edge of that statement.

Marjorie has been thrust into London society and pretty much been ignored at best, insulted by most due to not having been born and living in high society for most of her life.

Graeme is a conflicted character since he really wanted no part of the kidnapping and is only interested in protecting his family and estate.

These two make for entertaining reading but at the same time I had to stop and think "Nobody would act like that" in too many situations.

I don't so spoilers but I was disappointed with the ending and I expected to see the The Beast of Bussaco from book 1 and I was seriously cheated in his appearance and the lack of anything that looked like action. The ending was rushed and seriously disappointing.

Bottom Line: This is more like pulp fiction which some like to read, I suppose it is entertaining but had to many things against it for me to give more than 3 Stars, it had the potential to be a great novel but as with book #1 this potential was squandered. If you want to read great historical romance and adventure I suggest you grab Kerrigan Byrne's Victorian Rebels series starting with The Highwayman , a true 5 Stars series in historical romance with unforgettable characters, this series pales in the comparison sadly but could have been just as good with a bit more effort. 3 Stars for the skeleton of a great story

I'm getting older I find that amongst other things my reading tastes are changing.  While I have enjoyed many a tale of heroes and quests from Ms. Enoch's talented pen in the past, this book failed to grab my attention and hold onto it despite some adorable characters and fun moments.
Marjorie Forrester was trained to be a ladies companion until a rare burst of fortune left her brother a duke and she a lady with a beautiful house in the heart of London and all the money she could spend. A dream come true?  Not quite! She found herself caught between her old world and new and unfortunately no longer belonged to either.  So when a sliver of an excuse presents itself off she goes to the wilds of Scotland to visit her brother accompanied by her companion and two men one of whom is the coachman.
As she nears her destination, she's beguiled by an innocent young man, hooded, tied and bundled into the back of a wagon to find herself an unwitting guest of her brother's nearest neighbor and a laird of the Maxwell clan who are on opposing sides of a clan war with her brother.  Shackled in her room she plots to escape but finds herself captured in more ways than one by the handsome laird as well as his youngest brother.
While I know women in that period are fairly intrepid but I thought they were fairly adamant about preserving their virginity and yet here we find Marjorie or Ree as she's called falling into her captor's bed with precipitate haste. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed the encounters between the two of them but couldn't reconcile myself to how easily Ree gave up her much coveted virginity. As it turns out Graeme Maxwell is on the outs with the clan chief and a secret sympathizer of Ree's brother but due to obligations of family and clan stands on the opposite side.
I thoroughly enjoyed Graeme's youngest sibling with his sweet innocence and love of all sorts of animals but overall this story is not my cup of tea despite happy memories of enjoying many a tale by this author in the past.

My One True Highlander by Suzanne Enoch is book 2 in the amazing "No Ordinary Hero" series, but can be read as a stand alone. Set in 1812 Scotland.

This is the story about, Lady Marjorie Forrester, who is the sister of, the Duke of Lattimer, from book 1. Graeme, a rugged Highlaner, who protects his clan and his younger siblings, fiercely and honorable. Soon finds he has more to lose then his lands, his clan and his brothers, he could lose his heart to the fierce, but determined, Marjorie.

Fast paced with well-developed, and engaging characters and an intriguing and captivating plot. Who doesn't enjoy a kidnapping, by a few young lads, danger, romance, passion and the rugged beauty of the Scottish Highlands. Oh, I forgot to mention the witty banter, the loyalty, star crossed lovers, the humor, the colorful characters and the passionate sparks that fly between Marjorie and Graeme. What's not to enjoy, absolutely nothing was left to be wanting in "My One True Highlander."

Suzanne Enoch has a talent for pulling readers into her stories and holding them captivated. I was instantly captured by Marjorie and Graeme's story. Graeme's brothers were so endearing, especially, his youngest brother, Connell, an absolute joy to read about his antics. The love between the brothers is palpable and endearing, they made my heart soar with their undying loyalty to their older brother, Graeme, who has taken care of them since their parents' passing.

Ms. Enoch has written a story that is a true treasure and a definite keeper. Highly recommended! I absolutely loved this story with many facets, twists and turns and a few surprises.
I read this fantastic story in one setting, it was a page turner, to me. I look forward to reading more from Suzanne Enoch. A simply must read Scottish Romance.
I received a complimentary copy.
