After enduring years of her nobleman father’s cruelty and abuse, Celestina Lunde is ready to take her own life rather than enter into an arranged marriage with an equally brutal man. But just when she is about to leap through the window of her tower bedroom, a brawny Highland warrior arrives at her home and changes everything…
Summoned to the royal castle by the King of the Scots, who is … is preparing for war with the Norse, Brodie Grant’s mind is on battle when he first spies the breathtaking Celestina perched on a window ledge. The sadness in her eyes makes him turn his horse around against his laird’s orders. He intends only to save the lovely lass, but after touching her once, he can think of nothing and no one else. There’s one problem: Celestina’s intended is an important man, and the king has just as much at stake in her arranged marriage as her father does. Will Brodie be able to do as he’s ordered and stay away?
A testament to love’s ability to transcend the most harrowing of obstacles, Love Letters from Largs is the emotional story of two soul mates who are determined to be together when everyone around them seems intent on pulling them apart.

Almost Too Saccharine
I enjoyed the action, but the romantic aspect was underwhelming. Brodie was too much the smitten hero and Celestina too much the sweet damsel in distress. Also, I would like to hope that Brodie wanted to rescue and fell in love with Celestina because she was in distress, but the overemphasis on her beauty made me wonder if he would have gone his merry way if she were less attractive. There were other events in the story that resolved too smoothly and were not believable.
While I said I loved this book, it also is the one that broke my heart the most. That heartbreak made it kind of hard to get through because I so did not want to see her go with the jerk but the story was a great continuation of this saga.
This is Brodie’s story. He’s about to go off to war when he spies a woman sitting on the ledge of her window, against his brothers wishes he intends to go back and save her. She’s intended to another just as cruel as her father. Pretty good book.
Loved reading this book it’s a great book to read it was a thrilling adventure and the story was so exciting I could have gone through this book over and over again i did not want it to end
A very enjoyable read. Would recommend it highly.

Love Letters from Largs by Keira Montclair
Clan Grant Series Book Three
Brodie Grant is the youngest Grant brother. His brother Alex, who became laird way too young after their parents’ death, is big and strong. His brother Robbie has the good looks that turns all the lassies heads. And then, here he is. Feeling weaker and less than the others. Well, one thing he can do is save the sad-eyed girl in the tower window.
Celestina Lunde has not had an easy life. After her mother’s death when she was seven, she had to put up with the punishments her father gave her. Both physical and verbal. And now…she’d rather die than marry her betrothed. She’s never met him, but she’s heard he’s cruel. She’ll be going from one cruel prison guard to another. No thanks.
I’ve read the latter books about the children, so it was fun getting to see Loki’s start. This was a great story. Definitely had me going through a few tissues.

I listened to this book on Audible. Antony Ferguson’s accent and excellent narrations added new depth to the story.
This story is excellent as is the entire Grant Clan series. It made me angry and sad. It kept me on the edge of my seat with the suspense. I totally recommend Brodie and Celestina’s story. And I guess it is part Loki’s story too.
I loved this book. I recommend this book to anyone who loves the highlanders. Loki was an excellent character and very innovative. Getting ready to read the 4th book about Robbie.
