Nosotros saw them fall hopelessly and helplessly in dearest in the first volume, so the writer was now free to more than fully delve into the groundwork story, the history
The sequel to The Pride of Lions whisks us back into state of war-torn Scotland of 1745-46, for u.s. to once over again bring together one of the leaders of the second Jacobite rebellion ('The Forty-Five or Bliadhna Theà rlaich Charles' year in Gaelic), Alexander Cameron, and his English wife, Catherine, in their fight for Scottish freedom, their lives, and their love.We saw them fall hopelessly and helplessly in beloved in the first book, then the writer was now free to more fully delve into the background story, the history of the final rebellion. The story begins simply a few days after the kickoff book concluded, in Blackpool, where Alex had sent Catherine to exist prophylactic from the upcoming war, then gain with intertwining scenes of rural (and even so peaceful) Derbyshire, England and the battles both on and off the field in Scotland. Until the Scots (oh, ye, foolish, foolish Bonnie Prince Charlie), cross the river Esk (in the middle of wintertime, might I add, and march into England.
And there's merely one person in England whom Alexander Cameron wants to see.
The reunion is hot, sweaty, rapturous, tumultuous...and bittersweet when Catherine is once again left behind, just to follow her husband (with expert reason!) as the Jacobite army retreats (still in the centre of winter!) back to Scotland.
And it'due south in Scotland that this story comes to a shut on Apr 16, 1746, on the barren, windswept, gore-filled field of Culloden...and to a second close, a little happier ane, at dawn on a field almost Achnacarry Castle in Lochaber.
This book is much more than historically oriented, yet the detailed descriptions of the politics of the time, military machine tactics, battles, and troop movements, don't deadening the footstep, on the opposite in fact, and offer an fifty-fifty more realistic background to the touching honey story betwixt Alex and Catherine.
There is enough of their "interaction" to satisfy our marvel, and the true facts of the history unraveling around them add a touch on of truth to the fictitious romance, the abiding threat of danger keeping the reader at the edge of the seat, hoping against promise sometimes, that these two truly star-crossed lovers might actually get to have their much deserved HEA.
The narrative of the rebellion ends with the horrific battle on the patently of Culloden Moor and its gruesome aftermath (having seen Culloden the reading experience was all the more than chilling for me), all the same Ms. Canham chose not to start with the boxing itself, merely to bring goosebumps on the pare and chills down the (at to the lowest degree this i) reader's spine through Catherine'due south ears as she listens to the distant rumblings of the cannons and so...
She ran to the forepart door and flung it open, straining at present to hear and identify the crusade of yet another shocking audio: the sound of absolute, deathly silence. (p. 480)
And at this (eighth read of this story) that this reader lost it. I've seen Culloden three times already and every unmarried time I'm amazed past the fact that even though the road passes just alongside the battleground, the company tin can hear merely the current of air sweeping beyond the plain, billowing in the grass. That judgement perfectly describes that feeling of isolation and silence I experience everytime I stand there at Culloden.
In the next paragraph, the reader is thrust straight in the eye of the battle without having been given a moment to brace, to set up for the pointless, tragic, wastefull loss of life and humanity on that moor. The reader is in the thick of it alongside Alexander Cameron, as he charges with his clansmen, every bit he plunges in the heart of the scarlet-clad soldiers, every bit he slashes his broadsword, roars the cath-ghairm of his association...
And when it ends the reader accompanies Catherine and Deirdre onto that same field, equally they stumble over the dead and dying, brand their mode between torn limbs and dead horses, in their desperate search for their husbands.
And nosotros're one time more whisked over the Highlands into Lochaber, walking alongside the vanquished Camerons, alongside Gentle Donald on his stretched, and Alexander indelible the fever brought forth by his wounds, share his desperation, his ache, his need to encounter Catherine, to let her take the pain away. And knowing the heartbreak that awaits him at home.
Oh, God!
I thought after putting the book down and indulging in one last, cathartic bout of crying that was a combined event of the emotions this story evokes and the Pearl Harbor soundtrack that seems to fit then well, I'd be back to normal. Non yet, so you'll have to forgive this rather strange review. Typing and trying to read the screen is tough though a film of tears.
Anyway, equally mentioned before, the last boxing on the British soil was simply the first climax of this novel which ends with the final confrontation that's been building since the first volume—the fateful night in which Alex won Catherine in a duel.
The epilogue is bitter-sweet, so many lives then much love lost, yet the glimmer of promise is at that place, a steady guiding low-cal on the horizon.
This is a truly beautiful and amazing story.

The state of war scenes were hard to read for me sometimes, gruesome and so heartbreaking, but quite necessary for the story of course. I also enjoyed the twists in the story that I didn't see coming. And i really hated the bad guys in this book, I mean really hated them!! I institute myself wanting to reach into the book and just stick my sword into them myself! (I can be dramatic).
Emotionally i was there 100%, I laughed, I shouted, I got aroused and I cried (oh god did I cry). parts of this volume were so pitiful, I stared at my Nook not quite believing it happened (say it isn't so). In The Pride of Lions, Catherine was immature to say the to the lowest degree, spoiled, entitled and I did't like her much. She started to mature and in that book and I grew to like her much more, In this book I loved her! And Alexander I just grew to love more than and more in both books...
I love Highlander books, I think considering I find them so romantic, and they touch on a special identify in my heart.

Reading this book is similar feeling a poignant hush in the air every bit information technology takes you at the heart of the Jacobite ascent of 1745 and relives all the important events of the menses in a rather explicit mode—including the devastating loss and gory details at the infamous Boxing of Culloden—that information technology seems to cut off your sense of detachment equally a reader and demand you to take sides. At least that is how information technology felt like for me.In that location has never been a more disturbing volume and it has affected me the way I should've had had I lived in that verbal menstruation and seen the monumental defeat of the Jacobites firsthand. For me, the author has finer breached emotions, especially to those who are forever sympathetic to the oppressed and disapproving of tyranny; she has also touched the full general sentiment of readers that savour on the "what ifs" and "should/could/might take beens" of the world. And to be honest, I did spend some time actually fuming at the Bonnie Prince for his intransigence and lack of military machine foresight! Not that it matters now, anyway, but this was one of those (rare) preposterous moments when I had allowed myself to plough into a nit-picking bookworm and bluster at a long-departed someone.
Now, on to a more than objective commentary:
The fusion of historical events and literary imaginings is laudable. Miss Canham has plain spent so much fourth dimension on research with her full account of events, wins and losses from warring parties, military machine strategies and routes, the number of troops and movements on both sides, and even what usually happens in an army campsite, and allows her fabricated-up characters to alloy in with these facts as effortlessly as if they had also been office of history. Too, while this period viewed women every bit weak, coddling individuals whose sole responsibilities included tending the homes and caring for their children, the author has created characters like Catherine and Deidre and introduced the states to historical icon Colonel Anne who exercise not hands succumb to male dominance or intimidation and are astute enough to know the consequences of existence at war.
The writer is also skilled in stage-managing her ain plot; just when y'all thought that you've already followed what goes in her mind and correctly predicted what will happen adjacent (as she subtly gives away clues later on clues along the fashion), she'll give us a totally different progression of events that simply proves how shrewdly ingenious her literary sense is. Well, I think she'due south not one to spoil her own story!
Personally, I don't think a lot of sexual activity is necessary (I know, I know, this is a romance novel), but the story focusing on the lost Jacobite cause is and so heartbreaking I'yard willing to overlook the fact that practically every graphic symbol in the book has given united states a preview of his/her scorching intimate moment.
This book has unwillingly brought me to an emotional roller-coaster ride; for me, it isn't just nearly a romance novel brewed in the middle of a conflict but a testament of the Highlanders' patriotism and fortitude in fighting for what is rightfully theirs.

A Sweeping Scottish Saga!You won't regret ownership this volume—nor any in Canham'south Scottish trilogy set in 18th century Scotland (PRIDE OF LIONS, BLOOD OF ROSES and MIDNIGHT Laurels)!
The starting time one tells the story of pampered English beauty Catherine Ashbrooke and Alexander Cameron, the Scottish Highlander who wins her in a duel. He carries his reluctant helpmate off to the Highlands where clan feuds and fomenting rebellion will sweep them into historic events and where their courage, too equally their honey, will be tested.
The 2nd, Blood OF ROSES, includes the rebellion of 1745 and the encarmine battle at Culloden, possibly the all-time treatment in a romance of that historic event. I warn you that you will not think much of the way England treated a defeated Scotland, just it will go real as the people you intendance virtually live through it.
The last in the trilogy, more loosely related than the others, tells of a lass who is a Highland patriot and her Campbell husband whose clan sides with the English. This ane tore my center out with two heroes every bit worthy vying for the love of a Scottish heroine you'll love.
Canham's superb storytelling evidences great and careful research. Her writing reminds me of Kathleen Givens in the sweeping panorama portrayed. Information technology'southward not but a well-told love story set in the Highlands, but an epic saga you won't want to put down. Canham crafts believable characters, many of whom are the real historical figures. You will feel like y'all're living it.
This is a must read for whatsoever serious Scottish historical romance reader!

What is information technology well-nigh the Scottish Highlands that speaks to that romantic side of me, that hidden princess that wants to be saved by her gallant prince? Is it the Scottish man..... strong, stubborn, proud, laying down his life for his state, his kin and his ane and only true dear. In the Pride of Lions and in its sequel, the Blood of Roses, Marsha Canham has transported me back in time to that unique identify in history where lairds ruled and battles were fought with swords over land and love.I accept been introduced to another striking Scotsman....Alexander Cameron, a legendary , dark-haired warrior whose destiny takes him to England and to the woman that will modify his life forever. Upon meeting the undeniably beautiful but spoiled Catherine Augustine Ashbrooke, feelings arise in Alexander that he has pushed aside for many years. He wins her hand in a duel, yet she has no idea that this stranger volition somewhen win her eye, her love and her soul. Catherine eventually finds out that Alexander is a Scotsman, a spy in her beloved England. He has no option but to accept her to his homeland, to the highlands, a identify he hasn't seen in years. Catherine has been raised to call back of Scotland as a cold, desolate place and its people as pure savages who can't even speak proper English language. All of this changes equally Catherine undergoes a metamorphosis, from a pampered, English kid to an empathetic, mature lass. She sees for herself the regal beauty of the state, the rolling hills and the black lochs, too equally the compassion, honour and pride of its people. In that location is a powerful honey betwixt Alexander and Catherine, one that has him opening his heart and soul to a Sassenach, i that has her yearning for the very man that will boxing against her homeland and her people. I enjoyed the banter betwixt these two, reminding me very much of another Scot and Sassenach named Jamie and Claire.
These books are filled with ancient blood fueds and some historical battles that are vividly described by the author. I found myself caught upwardly in the Scottish quest for liberty every bit they marched their way across England, only to be defeated at Culloden, a horrific ending to a gallant dream for freedom. Yet throughout the stories, at that place is that ever present sense of hope, hope for independence, hope for peace, hope for a love that is all encompassing and never-catastrophe. I do believe we are all princesses waiting and hoping for our knight in shining armour to rescue us, to throw us down and ravage u.s.a. in the wild grass, to take u.s. upon his horse and ride us into the dusk, only generally, to dearest us more life itself. We are all waiting for our Jamie, our Alexander, our champion. I believe I take found my warrior, although I do wish he wore a kilt!

When I started this volume I knew it was going to have a sad ending, I know my history and Charles Stuart and his Highlanders do non win their state of war confronting England. To me this was so much more then just a romance story, Marsha Canham writing is wonderful! I was right there, I felt their love, their joy, their pain and sadness; the battle of Culloden was heart breaking! Later on the battle when Deirdre finds her hubby Aluinn, I didn't merely weep I wept.This is the first book of Marsha Canham I have read, but information technology will non be my last!

I understand why the publisher asked Ms. Canham to make this a 2 part book vs. ane massive story; I also think it was the right affair to do. In fact, I might have chopped it into a trilogy. The devastation at the end of this story deserved more time to unfold - not the battle scenes per se,
I enjoyed this as as much as I hoped, although information technology felt too long. At least i of the villains felt superfluous to the story, and the other was simply awful and a waste of page space from start to finish.I understand why the publisher asked Ms. Canham to make this a 2 office book vs. 1 massive story; I likewise think it was the right thing to do. In fact, I might have chopped it into a trilogy. The devastation at the end of this story deserved more fourth dimension to unfold - not the battle scenes per se, merely the events leading upwardly to the massacre at Culloden and its aftermath, and the short and long term furnishings on these principal and secondary characters.
Nearly everything almost the story worked for me, but while I love strong female person heroines, when their survival/life begins to have on legendary status, I start to wonder when enough is enough. Courage, pride and decision are wonderful (and apt) descriptions for Catherine (and Deirdre), but saving (view spoiler)[the prince (hide spoiler)]? Overkill. Gilding the lily. And while cats might have nine lives, these ii women would give them a run for their money.
I loved the surprise twist at the end - reader, I LOVED IT - and the final fight scene. Vicious & satisfying. I was less enamored with the resolution of Aluinn and Deirdre's storyline. Outset of all it was much, much besides sudden and, well...I really hated it even though it works in the context of the overall novel.
Alex and Catherine are a terrific couple & I only wish the backdrop of this story didn't forestall a true HEA.
Recommended.

If you're looking for a truly happy ending of ALL the heroes (and heroine) in The Pride of Lions y'all may not like this book.

Lots of twist and turns in it, especially in the Midnight Accolade the tertiary and last of the trilogy.
The story shows Catherine Ashbrooke Cameron turn from a spoiled Sassenach into a existent courageous woman; a lucifer for Alaisdair Cameron, The Camshroinaich Dubh (though I could practice without some of the sap scenes betwixt them). Aluinn MacKail, Alaisdair'south friend and side-boot, and Damien Ashbrooke, Catherine'south brother, got their ain stories to tell; which I won't tell as it will spoil all the fun. :) And of form, Hamilton Garner, made more than a few appearances as well.
Riddled with existent historical events (information technology even bore maps of Jacobite Army movement and retreat upward to The Culloden Massacre) The Claret of Roses is a historical novel in every sense of the word, and not entirely fiction either; just brought up the loss and of what family and friends felt and suffered following i momentum yet tragic role of England's history.

Talk about cowboys and Indians, I kept thinking I was reading about the American wild westward in that the theme was very similiar merely this is the Highlands of Scotland. No wonder British children love to play "Bonnie Prince Charlie." He did not turn out so bonnie in this book. I think had he been smarter, I think he might have occupied the Scotish throne and changed history. Equally it is, the Stuarts were thrown off the island simply in this century, England is likely to crown a Stuart as Princess Diana, being a straight descendant of Mary, Queen Of Scots brought the Stuart blood back into the royal line.
Swashbucking heros bated, there were erotic scenes in this romance also every bit blood, gore, violence and death just it does cease in HEF for both immature lovers. ...more

The Blood of Roses = cipher but FILLER. Let me sum information technology up real quick for yous. A agglomeration of history, excessive sexual activity scenes, desertion, Echo. Let me explain. The first 22% of the story is history and Alex and Catherine are apart. They finally become together and all they exercise is have sex. Not that I wouldn't in their situation, simply that's not ALL I desire to read about. And then he decides to go out her, again, and she gets injure. Repeat, repeat, repeat. End of story. I pretty much skimmed the unabridged volume. Stuff doesn't even happen until the terminal 25% and and so it gets very dark. Non a happy fashion to cease the book. Like, fashion worse than PoL.
For those who haven't read the book, stop reading my review here.
So at 75%, Struan kills Lauren. Give thanks GOD!!! Probably my favorite office of the book and I'm like finally!!! This volume is getting good. But then that feeling gets dashed to pieces because Canham decides to kill Damien! I'thou like, wtf?! For the about function, throughout the first book and up until this point, no 1 of import really gets hurt. Everything worked out for everyone. So and then she decides it'due south good idea to KILL CATHERINE'South Brother, when the author could've but left him in England with his married woman. We never find out what happens to Harriett, btw, who merely lost the man she was in beloved with her unabridged life.
So at this bespeak, I'thou like sh*t, all bets are off when information technology comes to the lives of the characters, and boy was I right! I go it, it'southward war, people die, especially at the boxing of Culloden, but please don't impale my main characters in a romance novel!! And then, yeah, say goodbye to Aluinn and Deirdre. Say goodbye to Struan. But, by all ways, keep the phony Italian, because unrealistically, he's Catherine's long lost dad that doesn't even bother to reconnect with her and decides to merely disappear again!! Cue all the eye rolls. And past some miracle, Catherine and Alex survive, but they are hiding away in a cavern with the remainder of the Achnacarry residents as the castle is being burned to the footing. Happily Ever After, right?!
My last little comment before I finish my rant: she already names her son Aluinn Ewen (Ewen being Alex'due south grandpa), simply no homage to her poor Damien? Bowwow. Haha. I did withal love Alex and Catherine and rooted for their HEA, it just wasn't worth the read. The last 25% maybe, because at least it was emotional and memorable, admitting depressing. I know the third book is about unlike characters that nosotros were introduced to in this book, but I won't be reading it.

I hadn't realised that this novel was the second in a series, and unfortunately had non read the first - though it sounded mightily dramatic.It wasn't likewise hard to follow the plot and the first book was recapped throughout so that I kept on top of the characters and earlier kerfuffles. My result was more with the style and content of the novel.
Substantially there were pages and pages full of war machine talk, battle plans etc. which was downright boring. I was skipping huge chunks at a fourth dimension because I wanted to read a romance novel. I wanted to know how the battles affected Alex and Catherine's human relationship, not to understand the battles themselves. At to the lowest degree, not in that level of detail.
Every bit a couple, Alex and Catherine were one of those couples so traditional in these historical novels. You lot genuinely do not know if they will take a HEA or whether they will be cleaved apart. It adds a tension that contemporary romances novels lack and I love the frustration and thrill of this element. However, I didn't really feel that Alex even really liked Catherine.
There was a lot of sexual activity and physical need, but I didn't feel that it really translated.

In a novel that sizzles with passionate intrigue and scenic romance, Marsha Canham whisks the reader back to war-torn Scotland as a legendary warrior fights for the two things most precious to whatsoever man: his country and the woman he loves.
She was born an Englishwoman, but he made her a Scot, pledged to fight for her dear husband--fifty-fifty against the country of her nascency.
Catherine Ashbrooke Cameron had committed the unpardonable sin of falling in dearest with her hubby--a Scottish spy she married in her English language habitation.

Alexander Cameron was a man with a toll on his head and enemies to fire. Love had made the legendary warrior vulnerable. Now he must protect Catherine from the dangers that threatened them both. But as he rode into battle against the English language, she refused to stay behind. He had claimed her, touched her, loved her, and she vowed cypher would ever divide them again."
This was not your typical Highland romance. This was meatier leading up to the Battle of Culloden, the battle itself and aftermath. It was similar in some ways to Dragonfly in Bister, 2nd in the Outlander serial, so how could I not similar it? Non as gut-wrenching, but it had it'southward moments. Ofttimes I couldn't help wondering if Gabaldon read these books before writing hers.
Lots of twists and turns in this book, and many surprises. Merely when yous call back you know who the traitor is in their midsts, you lot're incorrect! It's who you to the lowest degree await! I really enjoyed this 2d book much more than the first. I found information technology hard to put down, and I thought of it often. Whereas the first book reminded me of GWTW, this i hardly did at all. The author actually establish her stride in this one, and the boxing depictions were very good - she does a keen job at describing the scene of Culloden and Drummossie Moor, the weather condition, the scenery, the villagers come to watch - very brilliant!
I was fatigued in and had to keep reading! I recommend this serial for Outlander fans. Alex and Catherine are no Jamie and Claire (not even close!), but they do have a good story and if you lot're interested in the Battle of Culloden and the events surrounding information technology, you'll capeesh these books. Keep in heed, these are romances, without the depth and scope of an Outlander, but I was pleasantly surprised and they helped assuage my thirst for annihilation remotely like Outlander while waiting for book vii to come out! Plus, they have plenty of kilted men and sexy hotness thrown in for good measure out! Plus, they have enough of sexy hotness thrown in for good measure!

The first of book is spend recapping the previous novel so if you haven't read the Pride of Lions you will have a pretty adept idea of what has happened thus far. I would actually describe Claret of Roses as beingness much more of a historical fi Blood of Roses is the continuation of The Pride of Lions and I would highly recommend you read it'south predecessor first. This is the story of Catherine Ashbrooke Cameron and Alexander Cameron and how their lives are affected by the Jacobite Rebellion of 1745.

I would actually describe Blood of Roses as beingness much more of a historical fiction book than a romance as and then much of it is spent in details of the rebellion and the military gains leading upwards to the boxing of Culloden Field. I was very pleasantly suprised with all of the wonderful detail as a lover of history in general. The author spends a great bargain of attending to the Bonnie Prince Charles and the military leaders entrusted to the rebellion. I really felt she did a wonderful chore describing why the rebellion failed and why the Scots backed it in the outset place.
Amongst all of the details about the rebellion this is also a great romance story. The author did a wonderful job balancing the romance portion of the story with the rich history of the fourth dimension. This was a great read and I highly recommend it! ...more

This is obviously my opinion and particular taste in my readings... because the story is incredibly well written and every fact referring to the war is explained perfectly.
The pace of this second volume is slower than the first one and the situation is completely unlike but I found that I felt pretty close to the characters and suffered for them more that I thought by the end of the book.
The catastrophe was bittersweet and tough... :( I didn't want to say goodbye to some of the characters, and especially not in the mode I had to some of them :'( ...more than
