I enjoyed the story, the very strong female heroine Morrigan and the romantic french monk Dragonet fight many battles side by side. They are both virgins and that creates a smile or two. The catholic church, relics, knights and highway men all have a role.
I did find the story too long and would have benefited with a bit more editing in the early parts of the book. The conclusion was touching. ( )

AUTHOR: Amanda Forester is a Romance, Historical Fiction author. This is the third book in her Highlander's series. The series is full of adventure, romance and the right balance of sexy but tasteful passion. She knows how to write an action and adventure filled, romantic and passionate book that includes hilarity and humor in many sections of her book.

SYNOPSIS
He is disguised as a minstrel traveling through Scotland in order to bring the silver chest to his father in France. He has never met such a challenge on his level as this woman. She dresses like a man and could best anyone in her clan including her older brother, the clan leader. Deep inside all she has ever wanted was to be in love, married and with children.

ROMANCE: "Ma chérie. Mon petit trésor." ..... "Je t'adore. Je t'aime!" He cried out, uncontrollably expressing his adoration and love.

PASSION: "Your hands are cold, but do not stop, I beg you." The fact that he noticed her cold hands meant he was warming. She replaced her hands with her mouth and he gasped again. This time she did not stop.

HUMOR: He moved forward again and discovered what intense pleasure he had denied himself. It was good, very, very good. Oh, what a loving God who created this.

FAVORITE PART: Revealing their stash of weapons concealed on their bodies (hilarious) AND gingerbread AND cave passion AND whenever he spoke words of love in French (ahhh so caring and loving, so c'est magnifique) and she did not know what he was saying..

LEAST FAVORITE PART: Actually I do not have a least favorite part. I loved it all.

TRUE HIGHLAND SPIRIT by Amanda Forester is an exciting fast paced historical romance set in 1355 Scotland. It is a Scottish romance at its best. With both a plot that is emotional,and full of passion and characters who are strong,determined,sexy,fierce and will capture your heart from the first page to the very last page. If you enjoy learning more on the Templar Knights of old,the Scottish Highlands,with a bit of Joan of Arc heroine,danger at every turn,and the passion of love,faith,and clan then "True Highland Spirit" is you kind of story. With a Highland lass named Morrigan McNab,who is a Joan of Arc heroine,although,she does not get burned at the stake,she is a true heroine to her clan,her gender,and her man. And a Noble Knight of the Hospitaller Order,Sir Jacques Dragonet,is hero of old,who has a secret or two. One you will never guess. How refreshing to find a hero who is a true Knight and a monk until the fiesty Morrigan and he crosses paths. Together,they learn trust,faith,and love of clan,family,while looking for a priceless relic that some would do anything to process. A delight and refreshing historical romance for everyone including inspirational readers. I LOVED,LOVED "True Highland Spirit". Received for an honest review from the publisher. Details can be found at Sourcebooks Casablanca,the author's website,and My Book Addiction and More.

Morrigan McNab silently drew her short sword, careful to remain hidden from the road. She checked to ensure her black head-scarf was in place, concealing her nose and mouth. The target of today's villainy clopped toward them thick mud. Twelve men were in the mounted party, their rich robes identifying them as wealthy, above the common concerns of daily sustenance...in other words, perfect marks.

Yes, my apologies for causing you any unwanted surprise. But see you? I could not remain comfortable while a lady was in need.
Good. You will put aside your monk's robes and disguise yourself as a traveling knight and join with the Duke of Argitaine on his mission to Scotland.
I've been a raider, an outlaw since I was old enough to wield a sword. No self-respecting man would wed a lass who wears breeches and can best him with a sword.
I thought if I could bring back this box to him, I could finally be right in his eyes. I could prove my worth. Maybe earn the right to be called his son.
That's why I'm here! Now get up and hear my confession, dammit!
