Katherine Douglas runs to her brother’s home to get away from her husband, Laird William Douglas. William doesn’t understand why his loving wife has been so cold toward him and when she claims she’s going to seek an annulment he is staggered. Betrothed since they were children and married for four years he decides he just needs to court his wife. But she has other plans.

This sounded intriguing when I picked it up, but it fails to deliver. Mainly because William is an idiot. I mean seriously, a huge blockhead. And don’t get me started on Katherine. I understand the tragedy that keeps playing over and over in their lives, but her decision and her refusal to just have a conversation with her husband are just plain juvenile. I have sentenced them both TSTL and close the book on them. I have no desire to subject myself to any more of their company.

When I read the description for this book it may have "A wife may be courted, too…" but I read it as "My wife may be courted, too..." Yep that really grabbed my attention so I knew i wanted to read it. But then it had a man in a kilt on it so it was a done deal in deciding if I was to read it.
