"A Magical Read"

Ms. Arwen gets better and better with each of her efforts. Her latest is romantic, humorous, and entertaining!

Dylan McTavish is tired of seeing his people coming to such sad end and decides that he will sacrifice himself for the good of his people. He decides to kidnap and marry the daughter of Brian the Butcher...her name is Evelyn and she is thought to be just as cunning and vicious as her father. When he lays eyes on her for the first time he can't ignore the fact that the trussed and gagged woman is a true beauty. It won't be that much of a hardship to marry such a lass.

Evelyn has been seeking her father Brian Roche and her journey has been long, taking her through a forest. Cold and tired, she is almost at her journey's end when from out of nowhere she is captured, gagged and bound and then further insulted when she is rolled into a filthy carpet only to be carted off so she can be married to a strange man! Well, the groom to be is handsome...but this is not what she had planned for herself. If this man wants to marry her...well, he's going to have to fight to get what he wants. And Evelyn may just find something she wants herself...the love of her husband.

Ms. Arwen's latest effort is incredibly crafted story with equally matched characters. Her make believe world was a pleasure to visit. She has managed to balance humor, romance, and suspense in this entertaining read. I eagerly look forward to reading this talented author in the future. Ms. Arwen is a writer I have no trouble recommending!
