The wind-whipped December sands of the isle of Kinloch invigorate Kira McLeod as she sets out to tame rugged Shay Callaghan, a Scottish bachelor as wary of a wedding ring as a snowman is of the hot sun. It'll take all the wiles of the canny islanders to weave a perfect Celtic Christmas for all....
Good story. Shay is a lawyer who specializes in divorce cases. As a result he sees the worst of what can happen to a relationship and has sworn that he will not succumb to one himself. The difficulty is that he has been attracted to Kira for awhile and knows that she isn't the fling type of woman. When the attraction becomes mutual and overwhelming Shay's thoughts begin to contemplate the future but he is still scared of what could happen. I loved Kira's acceptance of his feelings and the way she was able to wait so patiently for him to come to terms with his love for her and what it means to him.
