I read several reviews before buying this, and for all those who said it was a *yawn* or unenjoyable - they need a different genre - because anyone who likes historical romance should love this book!!! I read an average of 2 books a week and this is a definite new favorite. It has all the ingredients to keep me up late reading - a dreamy H, a heroine I could feel sympathy for, witty dialogue, a plot that thickened till the end and of course, steamy romance. If you like Julia Garwood’s old books or the like - I definitely recommend this one :)Tags : Maiden of Inverness [Arnette Lamb] on Amazon.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers.

Enjoyable read. Meridene is betrothed to Revas when they are both no more than children. King Edward sends her away to England shortly after the wedding ceremony is performed when an attempt is made on her life by her own kin. Young Revas vows he will come for his child-bride.
Thirteen years later, Revas makes good on his vow. Unfortunately, Meridene wants nothing to do with him or Scotland.
Revas was adorable...a strong, handsome warrior determined to win over his bride. Meridene was a bit stubborn but her fears were not unfounded. I found this to be a charming story with a likable hero and heroine and secondary characters guaranteed to bring a smile to one's face.
This book was nothing spectacular. While a well written account of early Highland myth and history, it lacks the sparkle and punch to set itself asside from similar themed romance.
The main characters are uni-dimensional. Revas MacDuff is a butcher's son turned warrior whose eye is on the Highland crown. His humor is forced and his might questionable. Meridene holds the legendary office of the Maiden of Inverness. Hers is the power to bestow the kingdom to her husband. She rebels against her own involvement in Scottish politics and yearns to return to the English abbey she grew up in. Her character comes off as a fearful, weak, and dull individual.
The problems of the characters are rehashed ad nauseum throughout the book until the ending, where the ties are neatly bound and everything rather amazingly resolves itself within mere pages.
The novel's backdrop of ancient Scotland was a plus. The legend of the Maiden, and its almost druid/magical references was a well-planned tale of pure fancy. Maiden of Inverness mentions some of the lesser appreciated clans that many historical fiction writers pass over. I believe with a better planned climax and plotting, this author has the ability to shine. I shall certainly check a few of her other Highland related titles to see if I fair any better.
I couldn't stay awake while trying to read this book.
i enjoyed this sequel to 'chieftain.' there was enough fact blended with the fiction to make it intriguing and plausible.
the one item i always look for is a map of the region described in the novel. the history/geography buff in me craves it.
These books are a great series by Arnette Lamb. I have had a hard time finding her books locally so I was glad to get these. I am reading them now.
Always a favorite. I've read this book over and over. Cried when Ms. Lamb passed away.
Well written storytelling and worthy storyline. Has more than just a romantic tresses in the hay. But, a novel with more much more.
