The Wolf Wore Plaid (Highland Wolf #6)

by Terry Spear

Blurb:

This Highland lass is a little too unpredictable, but maybe that's exactly what an overprotective Highland wolf needs in his life.

Enrick MacQuarrie has no time in his life to worry about anything beyond the duties of being the second-in-command of his Highland pack. Work always comes first. Until a movie being filmed at Enrick's castle results in an enemy clan bent on revenge, and Enrick is tasked with keeping his longtime packmate Heather MacNeil safe.

Impetuous Heather MacNeil has had a crush on Enrick for as long as she can remember, but never any hope he'd reciprocate her interest. But a battle between the clans turns into something deeper between the two wolves, and Heather's wildness might be just the thing to teach Enrick that all work and no play makes for a very frustrated alpha.

Review:

What could possibly beat a sexy Scottish leader of a wolf pack? I can’t think of much to be honest and though this story is all about the Pack’s second-in-command he is a leader in his own way and watching him find and claim his mate and the antics they get up to was perfect. Terry Spear’s Heart of the Wolf series has expanded into so many interesting and evolved storylines that sometimes it is difficult to keep up, but her Highland Wolves are definitely some of my favorites. This story involves a lot of Pack politics, as well as dealings with humans and most importantly the love between two long-time friends that blossoms when they least expected it. Enrick has watched the crazy MacNeil she-wolf antics for years, but he is too responsible to let her lead him astray even though he finds her entertaining at times. Now that she is underfoot all the time because of the movie filming in his Pack’s castle and using wolves from both of their Packs, Heather is becoming even more intriguing to both him and his Wolf . Heather has been in love with Enrick for years but she knows that he sees her as a nuisance and frivolous, but she doesn’t let it stop her from doing all she can to make this venture between their Packs a success. When enemies begin to attack and make their lives dangerous, Enrick and Heather must work together to stop their enemies as well as protect the humans—and protect their secrets from them. I loved seeing Heather and Enrick butting heads and expressing their passions as they found way to work together. Enrick had a bit of a stick up his butt in my opinion, but slowly he began to see the fun that Heather could bring to his life, leading him to be more rounded and approachable. He is alpha strong, sweet, and caring to Heather and his entire Pack, but I definitely liked him most in their private times when he allowed Heather to bring down his walls. Heather has been fighting against the label of troublemaker and irresponsible for years, trying to show Enrick and others that she is more than just a reckless wolf out for nonstop fun. She has a good head on her shoulder, though she values life being fun and interesting at the same time and having that balance is important to her. I enjoyed the sparks these two shot off one another from the very beginning, but the best times were just when they were playing with one another and enjoying their time together. I am looking forward to whatever comes next with these Highland wolves of in general with the overall Heart of the Wolf series. Terry Spear never lets me down!
