A warrior with a wounded heart.
A lass in desperate need.
Will destiny be on their side in Scotland’s War of Independence?
Destiny sent the famous warrior Alexander Grant three grandsons on the same day, at the same time. Or so the story goes. Alasdair Grant, one of the three, struggles to believe he has any special purpose. The future has never seemed bleaker for Scotland—or for Alasdair’s own family. And yet, he cannot help but wonder if fate has reached for him at last when his grandsire sends him to MacLintock Castle to help Emmalin MacLintock, the very lass who has possessed his thoughts.
Emmalin would have been laird of her castle had she not been forced to marry a controlling English baron. Her heart longs for a different life, a life in which she leads her people and a handsome, strong Highlander stands by her side. A Highlander like Alasdair Grant. When the baron dies unexpectedly, Emmalin is relieved, but that feeling quickly fades when an English garrison shows up to storm her castle. Worse, there’s evidence someone in her life might be in league with them.
Alasdair and one of his cousins arrive in Emmalin’s hour of need, giving Emmalin a glimpse of what life might be like with him by her side. If Alasdair can open his wounded heart to Emmalin, it will bring him one step closer to his destiny, but he’ll need to have faith in himself—and in Scotland—to do so.

Deserves 10 stars in my opinion. I read and always post a review, between 225-350 books a year. I have read and own every single one of this author's stories and series from their first publications. They are all connected, even though you can read them as stand alone series. But you are so much more fulfilled when you have read them all. For me personally this author, at this moment in her career with this story, is right up there with Monica McCarty. I have to say that this story is probably my all around favorite of all of Montclair's series.
There are only less then a dozen books that I have read that have made me sob and feel gutted with emotion and the same time, to the extent I have had to put the story down and walk away...and The Scot's Betrayal is one of them. This, for me is a true testament of this author's growth with her gifted craft.
Alasdair and Emmalin's story is enthralling, but it is Alasdair and his grandsire who will implant themselves into your hearts. Chapter 22 gutted me. This book is definitely a keeper for me! One I want to keep in my library. This story by the end had a supreme grasp on my heart.
Magnificent!
Just finished The Scot's Betrayal! One minute I was sobbing and cursing, and it takes a lot to make me cry, the next I was smiling and so happy. When I finished it, all I could say was absolutely brilliant! Keira is a wonderful writer who weaves her stories and characters in such a way that they become almost a part of your family. You can't wait for the next book to see how they are doing. Bravo Keira!! Cannot wait until the next book in this series! ❤️❤️
