To Save A Highland Sinner is book three in Bailey’s new Wicked Highland Misfit’s series. This book’s story is intertwined with book one, To Have A Highland Thief. Although, it truly can be read as a stand-alone work. 

I enjoyed getting to know Gavin Davidson and Kate Mitchell. I thought the characters were well developed and complex. The pace was brisk and kept me reading to the end. There are several steamy passages. “Her breath caught. ‘Ye are so lovely.’ His gaze penetrated hers, burning hot with a yearning that matched her own. The hand in hers let go and curled around her side. He pulled her flush to his tight frame, and she nearly moaned as tension wound tight in her body, recognizing the need in his.” Well done! I have enjoyed this series.
