Beware a Scots Revenge by Sabrina Jeffries

Goodreads Description:

"Someone's going to call your bluff someday, Venetia you'd better hope it's not a handsome man." Mrs. Charlotte Harris, Headmistress 

Lady Venetia Campbell's visit to her childhood home in Scotland takes a dramatic turn when she's kidnapped at pistol point by her father's sworn enemy. Sir Lachlan Ross is widely feared in his guise as The Scottish Scourge, but Venetia remembers her former neighbor as a handsome youth whose attentions she craved. Now a wickedly sexy man, Lachlan's appeal is even more intoxicating... and much more dangerous. Though Lachlan tries to treat her as his foe, his scorching kisses tell another story. And despite his plan to use her as a weapon against her father, Venetia is determined that Lachlan's lust for revenge will be trumped by an even more powerful desire....

My Review:

All the previous books hinted to this book and the Scotland Scourge.  Venetia Campbell was one of Mrs. Harris' students and after quite a few seasons her father is fed up.  She makes a deal with her father to let her go to Scotland for a Peer Ball and that she promises to accept a proposal with in the year.  Her father agrees, under the impression that the Scourge is dead.  Her father knows more about the Scourge then he leads on.  Through out the book, Sir Lachlan Ross teaches Venetia about what has been happening in Scotland since she left as a child and in return Venetia teaches Lachlan how to feel and love again.  I felt horrible for Lachlan and all he's lost and suffered then near the end I felt so bad for Venetia and her family and all they've suffered as well.  I was so happy to see all ends well in the end, as I absolutely HAVE to have a happily ever after ending.  There were quite a few bumps and bruises along the way though and that just made it even better to read.  Highly recommend, especially if you have read the others in this series. Now if only we knew who Cousin Michael was!
