Publisher Description
Best-selling author Monica McCarty captivates millions with swashbuckling Scottish romances like The Hawk. Brilliant seafarer Erik MacSorley has never encountered a gale he couldn't weather or a woman he couldn't win-until he drags a wet, half-clothed "nursemaid" from the Irish Sea. But Ellie's ordinary dress belies the truth that she's the spirited daughter of an Irish nobleman. And her determination to resist Erik's charms is a challenge he can't resist.

"Well, this is my second highland guard novel. I read #6 first, and although I liked it, I didn't love it. I've been downloading them from my online library, hence the lack of sequence in my reading. I downloaded this one, the story of Hawk, and was pleasantly surprised. I loved it!!! I love the characters, especially Ellie. She's described as plain and ordinary, but she is far from that. Our hero, Erik, is described as handsome, beautiful and carefree, but he's much more than that. They are thrown together in a difficult situation (I don't want to give any spoilers away), and I gotta say, They way Ellie doesn't put up with any of Erik's 'shite', was awesome! I loved how we get to know them both just as they get to know each other, and realize what amazing people each of them are. I fell in love with the characters just as they did. I haven't read much from this author, but she does an amazing job bringing the story to life. I look forward to read other highland guard books. If they're as good as this one, I'm in for a treat! :)."

" Just goes to show that the arrogance and stubborn refusal to admit feelings is something ingrained into all men no matter the century...another great highland guard book and cannot wait for "Ranger"s story. "

" A great light romance book that delivers. "
— Brenda, 10/26/2013 -
" I enjoyed the first book in this series, "The Chief", but for a history buff, this was just as good or better because Robt. the Bruce was more integral to the plot. I like the fact that McCarty's books are well researched, action filled and have great romance. "

" Oh The Hawk is my favorite. :) "
— Cathy, 12/14/2011 -
" A weak 4 - listened on Audiobook. <br/>Good solid highland story with a bit of true history worked in. I really enjoyed Ellie and Hawk's romance. The only complaint I have was that it seemed to drag a bit in the last quarter. "
— Christina, 10/18/2011 -
" I thought no one could top the Hero in the first book of this series but The Hawk, Erik, is definitely my favorite now. Tall, blond, sexy, charming, and a viking. Need I say more? "
