Scottish warrior woman!
The Wicked Viscount (The Campbell's #3) by Heather McCollum
This is my first read of a Campbell's series title. It won't be my last!
1865 and the vivacious, Catroina Campbell healer and a Highland Rose (a group of women schooled to not only serve tea but defend themselves and others) is called to London by Queen Catherine regarding the illness of her husband Charles I.
Nathaniel Worthington, fifth Viscount of Lincolnshire, and the bane of Cats life at the moment, handsome, sleek and oh so much the warrior will escort her. The sexual tension between the two is palpable.
That tension increases in the journey towards London.
Cat in the palace is another thing. Here she has to contend with the put downs and intrigue of the court, and in the process will learn some trying secrets that come close to destroying her.
A warrior woman, with a heart of gold and a temper that ignites and flames all within its reach, neither Cat nor Whitehall Palace are ready for each other. As for Cat and Nat, that's a whole different question.
I loved the opening scene and Cat's patience as she tracks the boar. I was charmed by Nat always trying to protect Cat and then finally understanding her need to be independent as he grows to trust her abilities.
An endearing and lively historical Scottish Highlands read!
