Rory: A Scottish Outlaw by Lily Baldwin — Review
Updated: Sep 2
Set in medieval Scotland, Rory: A Scottish Outlaw by Lily Baldwin combines forbidden love, rebellion, adventure, and a romance between two strong-willed characters who are determined to protect the people and country they love.
Lady Alexandria MacKenzie is caught up in the struggle for Scottish independence and needs to secure the future of her clan. Rory MacVie, a loyal and reputedly rakish secret agent, is sent to help her with a dangerous mission—but he has been specifically ruled out as a potential husband.
Kaylie Morgan came to Rory: A Scottish Outlaw without having read the earlier books in the series, so her review offers a useful perspective for readers wondering whether they can begin with Rory's story. Here's what she thought.
A Reader's Opinion
A fantastic read!
RORY: A SCOTTISH OUTLAW, is the first book I've read by Lily Baldwin. When I first started the story, I thought I might have missed something coming in at book three. However, the author ended chapter one on a great note and I easily kept going. Lady Alexandria "Alex" is a wonderful and strong heroine who loves Scotland above all else. Rory MacVie is a charming and loyal hero who also loves Scotland and would do anything for her.
They are both honorable, spirited, and their passions and pursuits make them perfect for each other. Their romance is almost legendary!
I feel like if I say much more, it will give away too much of the story. Because I hadn't read the first books in the series, I didn't know what to expect, but I was surprised a few times. The author did a good job of holding my interest, and she has a nice, easy writing style.
RORY: A SCOTTISH OUTLAW is sure to please anyone who enjoys a sensual medieval adventure.
