Finished: Ransom (Garwood) A fast-paced tale of a Englishwoman during King John's time who travels to the Highlands of Scotland to search for a lost jewel box that she can return to her beloved uncle's captor, who ravaged her home when she was only 5 years old, killed her father, and separated her from her sister. A historical novel that is more romance novel than historical, but it was very entertaining. Full of intrigue, with two main "couples" who fall in love, but of course, are first always at stubborn odds with each other. It reminds me just a bit of Outlander, but not written in as much depth. Still, it has the gruff, warrior highlanders, who despite their intimidating appearances are loyal to women they fall for. Thank you to my dear friend Leslie for giving me this fun book for my birthday! :-)
