What I liked about this book? It was full of laughter!

Caelen sealed up his heart from love after the betrayal from the woman he loved. He felt guilty to his brothers and his clan and he'd do anything for their safety. He agreed to take Alaric's place to marry Rionna and became a new laird to a new clan. His past made him a cold-hearted but he found he smiled a lot and contented after Rionna became his wife. And his wife, she's all woman and feminine regardless of her mannish attire and swaying sword. She's very brave, strong and stubborn nothing would stop her from doing whatever she wanted to do.

Caelen and Rionna are so sweet together, alright. I enjoyed their banter, their spar, and their romance. At first, I thought Rionna couldn't love and I assumed Caelen would do all the work to win Rionna's heart but instead it was all the way around.

My favorite part is where Caelen and Rionna were at outside all alone together on cold winter - they played snowballs and laughed a lot.

Sigh... Ms. Banks, I want more.

Highly recommended.
