Rowan works with plants and has to be married to a citizen of Irudan if she wants to work with the ‘garden planet’.  One of the Guardians, Skorin, marries her even though he doesn’t really want a wife, but she can act for him at family functions so he doesn’t have to do them.  It all changes when he meets her after she is kidnapped.

Knotted is part of the series Terran Times Second Wave.  Fans of Ms. Grace’s Terran Times series will not be disappointed in this story.  I had to laugh at some of the antics that Skorin and his friends pulled. The family dynamics of the Nakkua family was also interesting because Rowan’s in-laws are wonderful.

Some of the Irudan customs were interesting, especially about married Guardians.  I laughed at the bit about women constantly throwing themselves at the single ones came out. Some of the plants described that Rowan worked on were interesting.

The relationship between Rowan and Skorin was intriguing, especially when they finally meet.  They did sort of get off on the wrong foot, but things quickly heated up between them.

Even though this book is part of a series, it can be read alone.
