About this listen

An arranged marriage leads to passionate love in this classic Scottish historical romance from #1 New York Times bestselling author Julie Garwood.

By edict of the king, the mighty Scottish laird Alec Kincaid must take an English bride. His choice is Jamie, youngest daughter of Baron Jamison - a feisty, violet-eyed beauty. Alec aches to touch her, to tame her, to possess her...forever. But Jamie has vowed never to surrender to a man she considers a highland barbarian.

Alec is everything Jamie’s heart has warned her against - an arrogant scoundrel whose rough good looks speak of savage pleasures. While Kincaid’s scorching kisses set fire to her blood, she is determined to resist him...until one rapturous moment quells their clash of wills, and something far more dangerous than desire threatens to conquer her senses...

This is completely different to the books I normally listen to, and I haven’t really listened to historical romance before, but this was a brilliant surprise. Good characters, pace and plot and was very enjoyable, and good narration too. Would definitely recommend for people who want to see if historical romance might be their thing.

Great book

loved the feisty female lead character story was full, I laughed and cried a lovely story but given it was mainly Scottish (Ellie Newland springs to mind) would have been better to have a Scottish narrator putting on an English accent that vice versa.
Rosalyn did a better job at narration than in her more recent books I've listened to but contrary to most people I find her jarring to listen to.

great highlander story
