About the author
Eliza Knight is an award winning, USA Today and international bestselling author. Her love of history began as a young girl when she traipsed the halls of Versailles and ran through the fields in Southern France. She can still remember standing before the great golden palace, and imagining what life must have been like. Growing up in the Washington, D.C. area, her weekends were filled with visits to museums, and historical reenactments. Escape into history for courageous heroines, irresistible heroes and daring escapades. Join Eliza (sometimes as E.) on riveting historical journeys that cross landscapes around the world. She is a member of the Historical Novel Society and Novelists, Inc., the creator of the popular historical blog, History Undressed, a co-host on the History, Books and Wine podcast and a co-host for the true crime podcast, Crime Feast.
While not reading, writing or researching for her latest book, she tries to keep up with her three not-so-little children. In her spare time (if there is such a thing…) she likes daydreaming, wine-tasting, traveling, hiking, staring at the stars, watching movies, shopping and visiting with family and friends. She lives atop a small mountain with her own knight in shining armor, three princesses, two very naughty Newfies, and a turtle named Fish.
Look for STARRING ADELE ASTAIRE a story full of glitz and glam, delving into the life of Adele Astaire, a spirited and talented woman who served up smiles and love both on and off the stage—with and without her also famous brother Fred Astaire— along with a determined young dancer with rags-to-riches dreams. Coming in June 2024, THE QUEEN'S FAITHFUL COMPANION.

This story is a quick read and I actually read it in a day. The story is not so quick that you feel rushed or that things are missing. Its the type of story that grips you and reads so smoothly that you keep going as if binge watching your favorite tv series, you just have to know what happens next.
I am a hopeless romantic and am a true sucker for a historical romance. One of the reasons I recommend this book is because I think there is something in this story for everyone. Its not overly sappy, not overly gory or gruff. Its got just that sprinkle of everything to make it a fantastic story. We could all use a little of Elle Cam'beal's strength and a bit of the Beiste MacDougall charm.
A must read for all Eliza Knights fans!!
to the other....the skill with which Eliza Knight paints the characters, and their growing affection for each other, is simply amazing.
I admired Elle for her courage and fierce protectiveness of her loved ones. When Elle first meets Beiste, he is mourning the loss of his father, who had been murdered. Grief and anguish rendered him gruff and cold. Needless to say, it was a rocky beginning, but eventually, the tide turns, and they begin to see each other in a positive light. We see that Beiste is deeply loyal to family, honorable, and increasingly drawn to our lovely and sweet heroine!
A beautifully crafted plot, a tender and captivating love story, a struggle for victory over vicious enemies...Eliza Knight has delighted and amazed me with LAIRD OF SHADOWS! You simply must read it for yourself to experience the beauty of this book!
As much as I’m a huge fan of this author, it pains me to have to admit there were some things that kept this book from really wowing me over, which is a shame since I liked how sweet, caring, and repentant the hero became after their rough start the first night they met. The hero hits himself over the head for how rude he was to her. He verra quickly found his manners, folks. Unfortunately, I just didn’t find the whole thing overly original like I’m used to from this writer.
Here’s some examples: “Beiste” as this huge, hunk of mountain of muscle hero’s name just seemed rather kiddish and foolish. The twist at the end regarding someone’s parents was blurted out like it was meant to explain everything here and the rushed “all’s well that now ends well” now ending felt thrown in to quickly wrap this up.
The hero himself I mentally pictured as The Witcher type character. Because, hey, that works for me and any excuse there, am I right? Yeah, I see you nodding your head, too. Maybe it was because I saw a picture of him today geared up like a warrior in that upcoming new season. My, oh, my! Mmm...Mmm...Mmmh...Lol So I let myself some loose reign here and pictured the heroine being the sweet, soft spot for that battered and bruised warrior weary soul to rest and move on to a HEA. T
Btw, the job she was told the Fae had picked her for, if she so chose to accept that mission, was an “OK, if you say so..I guess” kind of thing. It felt random and rather nonsensical to include.
Avid romance safe fans may note the same contradiction I sensed regarding his deceased wife. A couple of times it is referenced he deeply loved her and misses her, can’t even move on, yet I distinctly remember at one point he thought of that former wife in a negative light because she was cold towards him. That was a misstep in consistency. Since I prefer he love this heroine more, it was like a lifeline I choose to grab and save myself from thinking this lass would ever play second fiddle to someone else. That's just how I roll, folks.
So overall, it was just okay...with some good points, too. I’m glad I can notch my historical romance belt one more notch and take this book off my to read list. No doubt I’ll be back for more though from this author and series. She is one of my top ten Scottish romance authors, after all.
