Derryth MacClaren is on the run--having been sent from her castle home to avoid capture by the vicious nobleman known as the Wolf, who has vowed revenge against the Clan Kincaid. When a surprise attack leaves her vulnerable, Derryth ends up in the hands of an enemy warrior who claims her, with the Wolf's blessing, as his prize. But her captor's gentle words and touch seduce her heart--and body--completely... and when she discovers the tattoo on his arm that proves him to be the legendary, long-believed dead son of the murdered Laird of Kincaid, Derryth knows she must find a way to alter his fate--and her own... Cull has no memory of his family or past--all he knows is the life of a warrior, trained to fight on behalf of the Scottish king. But now that Derryth has informed him of who he really is--Cullen Braewick, the youngest son of the slain laird--he is torn. If Cull exacts revenge against the Wolf, who executed his father, he stands to lose the precious lass who he has come to love. What is he willing to sacrifice for Derryth to keep her safe... and in his arms?… (meer)

The Warrior of Clan Kincaid by Lily Blackwood
Highland Warrior #3

A family destroyed
Three sons separated for years
A trilogy of stories
Strength, endurance & perseverance
Retribution & Vengeance
HEA for all three sons

Finally we find out what happened to the youngest Kincaid brother. Cullen Braewick ended up sold into slavery when most of his family was butchered. Years later he was purchased by Buchan – The Wolf – to be trained as a warrior. Little does he know that Buchan’s agenda is one of revenge, murder and mayhem that will hurt Cull if he follows orders explicitly.

Into Cull’s hands falls Derryth MacClaren. She is saved by him from a “fate worse than death” and thus begins their sparring, getting to know one another and eventual HEA. With kidnapping, misdirection, murder and more this is an action-packed story of wrong doing eventually righted and family once again together.

I would like to know more about the brothers and their families further down the road but have a feeling that this may be the last book in the series…maybe?

Did I enjoy the book? Yes
Did I like Cull & Derryth? Yes
Would I read other books by this author? Yes

Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for the ARC – This is my honest review.

I received an ARC of this book to read from a NetGalley in exchange for a fair review. The Warrior Of Clan Kincaid is the final book in Lily Blackwood’s Kincaid Brothers trilogy. It could be read as a stand-alone but I would recommend reading the other two books first. Niall Kincaid heard that an evil nobleman named the Wolf is planning to attack his castle and so sends his sister-in-law Derryth MacClaren off to safety with trusted warriors, unfortunately they are almost immediately captured by the enemy. Cull the Nameless who has been charged with leading the siege against the Kincaids can’t help but be fascinated by the beautiful peasant girl his men have captured. Kept as a prisoner Derryth fears for her family and dares not reveal who she really is. Lies and betrayal will make the path to HEA very difficult for these two.
An exciting story that will keep you at the edge of your seat. Very steamy. Publishing Date July 31, 2018. #NetGalley #TheWarriorOfClanKincaid ( )

I don’t think the dictionary contains enough superlatives for me to tell you how much I enjoyed this series and this book. I have never given 5-star ratings to all of the books in a series before, so this is definitely a first. The story immediately sucked me right into that time period and the lives of the people who dwell there and it didn’t let me go until some hours after I had read the last words. It is well plotted, excellently written and has very likable and relatable characters. You COULD read this as a stand-alone if you insist, but I cannot imagine why you’d want to. The first book sets up the background excellently and the second book builds and the third book – well, sadly I guess it ends it. There is also a most excellent ‘Afterward’ in the book, but I would have loved to see an Epilogue from 5 or so years down the road to see how they are all doing, how the kids, are, etc. After all – Cull had only just met his brothers at the end of the book and I’d love to know how their relationships developed. Yep – that is my one and only complaint about the book.

Derryth MacClaren has been pulled from her bed in the wee hours of the morning to be dressed in the clothes of a servant. She’s placed on a donkey and told she must leave the castle immediately. She’s still groggy but knows she cannot, absolutely cannot, leave her nine-months-pregnant sister Elspeth (heroine from the first story in the series). However, Elspeth and her husband, Niall insist she must leave. Then, she suddenly knew why she was being made to leave. “It’s the Wolf, isn’t it?” Just speaking his name caused her vision to blur and her throat to close. As she set out on her journey she was accompanied by three of Niall’s best warriors and her old nursemaid. They were to take a circuitous route to get to their destination – it made the trip longer, but should have been safer.

Sir Cull the Nameless is a knight in service to the king of Scotland. He’s the best warrior and the most honorable warrior in all of Scotland as well. Cull was a slave on a ship and was rescued by Buchan who took him to Scotland and placed him in a school to be trained as a warrior. Cull was only twelve years old when he was rescued and he had no idea what his name was or how long he’d been on that slaver's ship. Buchan has now called him to the Highlands of Scotland to perform a task for the King even though Cull has never been to the Highlands. Cull dreams of having a name, land and a family and this new mission will give him all of that. All he has to do is defeat the people at the legendary Castle in the Clouds and take possession.

Cull’s forces are encamped several miles away from the castle when he hears a commotion and heads out to see what is going on. Some of the seedier men in his employ have defied his orders and stopped a set of peasant travelers on the road. Now that they have seen his encampment, he can’t let them go until after the battle. However, one of the servants is a young woman that he knows won’t last long with the men in his camp – so, he places her in his tent to avoid her being molested.

Elspeth is frightened, but she cannot let the soldiers know who she is. They could use her as leverage over her sister and brother-in-law. She’ll play the part of a servant and learn all she can of their plans – and she’ll do everything she can to escape.

Since Cull has Elspeth in his tent, they can’t help but come into contact with each other. Some of those interactions are funny – like kittens embroidered on his tunic – and others are enlightening. He becomes more and more possessive and protective of her – and she returns that, but she knows she has to escape and warn the castle.

The way they come to trust and love is a delightful thing for them to share with us. They are both so sweet, kind and caring and their journey is not an easy one. In the end, you sometimes just have to learn to trust those you love.
I was so pleased that the author tied up all of the loose ends for the series. Everyone and everything was accounted for. That said, I would have loved to learn more of what happened to Duncan – he certainly deserved more punishment than it seems he got. Also, there is Robert – I loved Robert and would dearly love to see the author do a story for him. He definitely deserves his own HEA. As I said earlier, I would have loved to see an epilogue further down the road to see how all was going with them. Maybe, just maybe, the author will add a fourth book, even if it is a novella, and we’ll catch up with all of them and see Robert get his HEA and see Duncan get his just deserts.

I highly recommend this book and this series.

Rcvd an ARC at no cost to author...(netgalley) I am so disappointed! Buuuuuuut not in the book I am disappointed with myself, why you may ask because this is the third in this series and let me tell you it was good, so of course now I have 2 more books to read. We have Cull a loving warrior, a man who has lost his memory and does not really know who he, as he take care of Derryth he falls in love and when he finds out who he is, he is conflicted will he choose love or his family? Then we have Derryth who was sent away to protect her and ends up being kidnapped and Cull the least likely person for her to fall in love happens to be just that when she discovers something on him telling her who it is... I wont tell you more but you will not have time to get bored this will keep you on your toes. Enjoy! ( )
