Description
On the road from Inverness to Aberdeen, Medieval Scotland
Gelis Ratry left the simplicity of her family’s farm to find out what else life had to offer. And what better way to find out than moving in with her aunt Lorna, the innkeeper of a rowdy seaside tavern, The Lady’s Smile, situated on the road from Inverness to Aberdeen. Helping out with the inn is certainly livelier than the farm, and dangerous. Gelis handles the daily characters and rough men of the tavern with finesse, but a troop of malicious soldiers might be a little more than she can handle.
Thomas Grant is a giant roving highlander. With half of his family lost in the war and the other half lost to the plague, he spends most of his time looking for the next drink. But despite his drinking habit, his heart is searching for a deeper passion. Good thing he shows up at The Lady’s Smile just in time to fight off a band of despicable musketeers looking to have their way with Gelis.
The Lady’s Smile is a 30,000-word adventurous medieval Scottish romance with no cheating, no cliffhangers and a happily ever after ending.

This is a quick sweet read. Gelis and Tom are products of their worlds but find trust and love with each other. Gelis has a tough time believing Tom and spends too much time waffling for me. There are some moments of tears and sad smiles balanced out with glimpses of happiness. Tom was a real sweetheart, but I wished to know a little more about his past.
