Though I felt some of Alexander's methods of "protection" were in poor taste at times, I cannot deny that his intentions were noble and his steadfastness in looking after her and her interests was awesome! Margaret was brave, a bit naive, and frustratingly idealistic, but I had to admire her unwavering spirit, for she never gave up persevering. I thought the brief, more realistic love scenes were great! I wish there had been an update at the end on a few more characters. What happened to Sir Ranald or Margaret's maid, Eilidh? Nonetheless, a great story of romance in difficult circumstances! ### ⭐⭐ Too long and not enough romance *by M***A on Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2013* Well, I had a difficult time liking the novel A Rose in the Storm by Brenda Joyce and it was mostly due to her heroine who I found fickle, immature and immensely stubborn.Lady Margaret is set to marry Sir Guy, an Englishman who her uncle hopes will bring a great alliance to his house. Lady Margaret has never met her betrothed but she is loyal to her uncle. She travels to her dowered castle and shortly finds her castle under attack. Scotland is in the midst of turmoil with Robert the Bruce trying to shore up support for his throne.Alexander MacDonald is loyal to Robert the Bruce and he knows that Lady Margaret's castle is a prize. He offers her the chance to surrender and she stubbornly says no even though she is overwhelmingly out numbered. Alexander defeats her easily and many of her people are killed. She is spitting angry at Alexander and she lets him know immediately. Alexander is in awe of her bravery (I found her decision to fight Alexander's army incredibly naïve and reactionary).Alexander keeps Lady Margaret as a hostage but in reality she will stay due to her injured brother. These leads have a royal battle of wills and even though she sees Alexander in a different light after spending time with him, she is still combative. For his part Alexander treats Margaret as an equal and she seems to take this in stride even though she must realize that his respectful and egalitarian attitude toward her is completely different than any other male she has ever encountered.Lady Margaret struggles for almost this entire book of whether she loves Alexander or not and through many, many pages with many, many different characters and settings she just cannot make up her mind about Alexander. He proves himself to her time and again and yet she is still fickle. Margaret has a tendency to be impatient and she takes many risks and it is no wonder she lands in some dire situations where she needs rescuing.I just could not see this couple as being the right people for each other. Margaret was not good at reading people's motives or judging their character and she never really seemed to be a woman who was steadfast. I was disappointed in this book as the romance was overshadowed by historical events. There was too much thrown into this novel with the Bruce's trek across Scotland, sieges, battles and court intrigue. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book but... *by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2013* Brenda Joyce is one of my favorite historical romance writers, and I could not put this book down but where were the steamy love scenes that Joyce books always had in the past? Every love scene would fade to black. Kinda disappointed :-( her sagas have always gripped me from cover to cover and this was book was no different but I felt it was PG 13 and therefore missing something. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/62783240-a-rose-in-the-storm](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/62783240-a-rose-in-the-storm) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
