Susanna Cavendish has spent most of her privileged life safely ensconced in the country.  Since Susanna is the oldest daughter of an Earl, she takes great pains to escape the notice of King Henry VIII so that he is unable to use her for political gain.  Easier said than done when Susanna is told in no uncertain terms that she is to be the bride of none other than a barbaric Scot.  Having no choice but to obey, Lady Susanna sets off to meet the man she is being forced to spend the rest of her life with.

Laird Blair Ruthven is a warrior through and through. One of his earliest lessons learned was to never trust anyone or anything.  Life is so much easier that way. That is, until he is ordered by his king to marry a pampered Englishwoman.  Deciding then and there that he won’t fall under her spell, he could not be more mistaken.

Blair and Susanna never expected the attraction that they felt for each other and they never expected to fall in love.

Leading Her To Heaven was marvelous. Fully caught up in the political unrest of the time period in which this novel is set, I found myself cheering for both Blair and Susanna from the sidelines.  Their mutual love and caring for each other set me aflame in its intensity.  I thought they were well suited and I loved watching Blair fall under the essence that was Susanna.

Having never read Kayleigh Jamison before, I wasn’t sure what to expect.  I can honestly say that Leading Her To Heaven is sensual, well written, and as a historical romance, one of the best books I have read in a long time.  I can’t wait to explore more books from this author.
