FINAL DECISION: A quirky old school romance with a hero with four illegitimate daughters, a heroine who is an indentured servant who lies to get a job as the governess, HIGHLAND ROGUE has a crazy plot and a super romance.

THE STORY: Juliet White, an indentured servant from Virginia comes to Scotland to find her sister's daughter. Masquerading as a governess, Juliet enters the household of Lachlan MacKenzie, Duke of Ross who has four illegitimate daughters -- one of whom might be Juliet's niece. Juliet tries to find out Lachlan's secrets while avoiding the randy Scotsman's charms.

OPINION: A hero with four illegitimate children conceived at around the same time is an unlikely hero and yet Lamb makes it work. The hero is imperfect and has made serious mistakes, but the book allows the readers to see real growth in Lachlan. I also really liked Juliet who reluctantly falls for Lachlan as she discovers depths to him she did not expect and also she falls for his daughters. She is smart, clever and dedicated. There are so many characters and yet this book does a great job of giving each of them a distinct personality. I especially liked the daughters' characters and can see why this book led to a trilogy with Lachlans' daughters romances.

I thought this book was fun, sensual and filled with emotions and surprises. The characters are interesting and the story kept me engaged.

I only have a small complaint and that is when Juliet's big secret is ultimately revealed, it is resolved too easily and quickly to be taken seriously as a big impediment to Lachlan and Juliet's happiness.

WORTH MENTIONING: This book has an interesting mix of historical information one might not expect to be found together combining New World indenture and Highland history.

CONNECTED BOOKS: HIGHLAND ROGUE is the prequel to the Clan Mackenzie Trilogy which tells the stories of Lachlan's daughters. The book is also a spinoff of THREADS OF DESTINY but you don't need to read that book.

STAR RATING: I give this book 4.5 stars.

Highland Rogue Arnette Lamb 9780671730017 Books Reviews

Lachlan is the type of rogue that you really want to domesticate. But it is not to hard to see that he loves his lassies. Juliet has her job cut out for her, not only in finding her sisters daughter but in tameing Lachlan. It was a very fun read. It is on my shelf with the rest of Ms. A.L.'s book as a favorite to go back to again and again.
This book was just another Highland-romance, pretty American meets Scottish duke, type book. It wasn't really funny/interesting/sexy. By the time the pair gets into bed, you don't care anymore. The Duke has the worst mood swings, and "his" Juliet is just boring. If you're looking to just pass another 4 hours of your life- then this is the book. If you have more interesting things to do with your time and you want a good romance pick up any of Eloisa James's books, they are all good.Enjoy!
great read! arrived as ordered.
There's no question in my mind, Arnette Lamb is (was) one of the best writers on Medieval Scotland. I've read them all and none can match her talent. All of Lamb's books reveal a vivid imagination, strong writing skills, and great entertainment. "Highland Rouge" is sensual, exciting, heart warming and truly entertaining. Lachlan is a wonderful character with multiple dimensions, being not only a consummate lover of women, but a lover and protector of wee lassies as well. Juilet was well developed and a perfect match for him. The competition between Lachlan and the sheriff towards the end of the book made me laugh, and I like that. A fun story, different from the usual stuff, and totally entertaining.

I've bought all of Lamb's titles and was waiting for her next one, when I learned that she had died. I thank her for her great talent, and the many, many hours of pleasure she has offered me through her works, and hope that she finds herself back in Scotland once again.
This is a charming and heartwarming story that is unusual in that the hunky Laird is not only lord and master but a loving and attentive father to his four illegitimate daughters. And they were all conceived during one wild season at court. He hides a big secret, one of his lassies is the niece of his new governess, but the secret does not end there,
Juliet didn't cross the ocean from Virginia and journey north of the Moray Firth in the dead of winter just to accept the governess position for not one but four sprite and bright six year old's. She's certain one is her niece, but which one? Crossing the line of impropriety and conducting her investigation become a double edge sword. She loves the girls, she loves him and he wants to marry her and have more children. What kind of hero is this? It's all hot and emotionally charged but she is intent on finding her sister's child and getting her safely to America. But what of the love so freely lavished on these girls by their father, they thrive with happiness. The betrayal of Luchlan's former friend begins a path to truths and some mending of a tumultuous history for families of England and Scotland.
