Highland Solution (Duncurra #1)I believe this is my first book by Ceci Giltenan, but it definitely won't be my last. It is a very well written, fast paced book that is full of excitement, intrigue, family strife, love and forgiveness.Also, let me tell you that I bought this book through and got it with Whispersync. If you haven't tried that it is GREAT. With this being a highlands book, there are a number of gaelic words included and with Whispersync, you can listen to the audio for a while and hear the actual pronunciations. It really added to my enjoyment of the book.Laird Niall MacIan's step-mother has run up debts in Edinburgh to the point that the clan cannot pay them and are desperate. Niall tries to get help from the king, but instead is told he has to marry a heiress. Niall is desperate and accepts, even though there are many rumors about this girl -- none of them are good. Lady Katherine Ruthven lost her father about 5 years earlier. She's a very, very rich heiress. Her uncle is her guardian and he is a really nasty, nasty, nasty piece of work. Her father's title, lands and money are supposed to be kept and go to Katherine's husband when she marries. He uncle wants all of that and has petitioned the king for it. The King sees a way to 'please' two people and gain more allies. So -- he tells Katherine that she can either marry Niall who will get all of her dowry and her uncle will get the title and her lands OR she can go to a convent and her uncle will get her money, land and the title. Great set of choices right! Well, of course she chooses marriage.Katherine is a really sweet, caring person and soon wins the whole clan over.
