As a bear-shifter in a pack roaming the Scottish countryside, Bryce Matheson embodies brute force and untamed abandon. As a widower, he's running scared. When Bryce attempted to open his scarred heart to another, she grew tired of waiting for him to state his intentions, and the unearthly beauty spurned him for someone who wasn't worthy. But now that fate has conspired to set Kenzie Denune free once again, Bryce vows to finally win her love.
Kenzie is a witch who summons her powers to protect those too weak to care for themselves. After surviving an abusive husband, she swears off men—even men like Bryce, whose iron muscles make her knees weak, and whose piercing eyes fill her with longing. Her life's purpose is to help others. However, dark forces have different plans for her gifts. To save herself, Kenzie must team up with the shifter who has always stirred her soul—and trust in a passion powerful enough to set her blood aflame.
Nice book to read, even if initially, as the story begins, I thought it was another kind of story, I expected to be the usual paranormal romance book, very hot, with the handsome shifter guy, instead Kenzie and Bryce's storymores little more deep and touching.
Yes there are funny moments, other moments very hot, but sometimes there's a lot more beetwen them, their story is quite complex.
Both them made mistakes, Kenzie paid all the consequences for them, too much, and reading the book I found out aspects of Bryce amazing, he is really a great character.
Another person I loved and remained in my heart is Colleen, Bryce's little daughter, she is really irresistible and her presence makes the difference in the book.
I must say that in the book there's more magic than shapeshiftinthe cause of the story linked to Kenzie's past and the dangers linked to it.
One thing that I love to read in these books in their original language is when they're written in Scottish dialect, it's awesome, I love it.
This is the second book in the series "A Highlander's Beloved".

Libro carino da leggere, anche se inizialmente, per come inizia il racconto, mi ero un po' ingannata da sola, mi aspettavo fosse il solito libro paranormal romance, molto hot, con il belloccio di turno, invece la storia di Kenzie e Bryce è molto più profonda e toccante.
Sí ci sono momenti divertenti, altri molto sexy, ma alcuni coinvolgenti, ed emozionanti, la loro storia è abbastanza complessa.
Entrambi fanno degli errori, Kenzie ne paga abbondantemente le conseguenze, anche troppo e leggendo il libro si scoprono degli aspetti di Bryce veramente spettacolari, è veramente un gran bel personaggio.
Un'altra persona che mi ha colpito e mi è rimasta nel cuore è Coleen, la figlioletta di Bryce, è davvero irresistibile e da la sua presenza dà veramente una marcia in più alla storia.
Devo dire che nel libro domina più l'aspetto della magia che dei mutaforma, visto la storia legata al passato di Kenzie e ai pericoli ad esso collegato.
Una cosa che poi adoro nel leggere i libri in lingua originale è il trovarli scritti in dialetto scozzese, stupendo, mi piace tantissimo.
È il secondo libro della serie "A Highlander's Beloved".
Ringrazio Netgalley e la Random House Publishing Group-Loveswept per il libro.
