Summary

The sixth and final book in the captivating series which follows the lives of Beth and Alex MacGregor, their family, and friends. 

Alex, now believing Beth to be alive, leaves Scotland and heads south to keep the promise he made to her at Culloden, determined to be reunited with his wife regardless of the danger to himself. 

Meanwhile, the Duke of Newcastle has realised that he cannot kill Beth, either publicly or privately, without attracting the enmity of powerful people, including the heir to the throne. He hits upon a way of being rid of her forever; transportation to Antigua as an indentured servant for life. By this deed he hopes that the terrible conditions on the sugar plantations will achieve the much-desired death of the woman who has defied him for so long. 

Things do not go according to plan, and soon, Beth finds her life going in a direction neither she nor Newcastle could have foreseen, which leads her to make a decision that could have a terrible impact on Alex as he attempts to discover her whereabouts. 

Join the rebellion as Beth and Alex fight to survive and be reunited in...the Jacobite Chronicles.

Unputdownable!

Will M Watt is a very talented narrator, really gave the characters depth. The stories were unputdownable and gave me several sleepless nights! Only niggle was the sound, obviously recorded in different places and pieced together.

Loved the series, NOT change in female narrator

What a great series and sweet ending. Loved everything about the first 4 books with Rosalyn Landor as female narrator. She was replaced in book 5 and 6, which was a huge mistake in my opinion. Would have been the perfect series if Rosalyn would have been the narrator to the end. Will look for more books by Julia Brannan, with Rosalyn Landor as narrator. Will M. Watt is perfect for the male voices.

How can it be over? I'm not ready to say good-bye!

Such a long wait for this last audio to come out, but it was so worth it! I will muddle through, knowing Julia is writing more books focusing on some of the characters and I can hardly wait. I'm preparing to read the three already out...Sarah's story, Harriet's story, and Caroline & Philippa's story. Waiting with bated breath for Alex's book!

This book lets you down so neatly and beautifully in the end, but not before our protagonists go through some thrills and adventures as they get there. Our favorite characters will live on because I have these books tucked neatly away and will take them out over and over again to enjoy! What a wonderful series this was!

As in Book 4, the narration was something of a disappointment though I had begun to grow accustomed to the new female voice and its distracting lilt and frustrating, lack-luster tones when reading the narrative. Interestingly, she was at her best when voicing her Highland characters, so wonder if she might be of that nationality. Again, Will Watt carried the day and gave his usual flawless performance. The introduction of two new narrators was an interesting addition with their strong Caribbean accents. I like them a lot.

In conclusion, I would say that I have nothing but good to say about Julia Brannan's Jacobite Chronicles. It was a wonderful adventure made even more enjoyable by great narrators and knowing how well-researched this historical story was. I will read/listen to everything this author creates!

Love this series

The only thing I did not like about this book is that it ended! After reading all six books (waiting a year for this one to come out) I feel so invested in their lives that I wish it had gone a bit farther into the “happily ever after”
Start with book one, read all six books! You will not be disappointed. I literally want to read the whole set again.

Great Series!

I hate to think this is the last book about Alex and Beth. Would like to hear more about life after they reunite and how the Highlanders continued after.
Narrators made the book even more!

The best series

I’ve laughed, scowled, yelled, sighed and cried with every book. This is by far the best book series I’ve ever read.

Perfect ending!!

This book ties up a lot of loose ends and, of course, mixes history with a wonderful reunion. Narration is absolutely perfect!
