Summary
AN ELITE FIGHTING FORCE UNLIKE THE WORLD HAS EVER SEEN …Scouring the darkest corners of the Highlands and Western Isles, Robert the Bruce handpicks ten warriors to help him in his quest to free Scotland from English rule. They are the best of the best, chosen for their superior skills in each discipline of warfare. And to lead his secret Highland Guard, Bruce chooses the greatest warrior of all. The ultimate Highland warlord and a swordsman without equal, Tor MacLeod has no intention of being drawn into Scotland’s war against the English. Dedicated to his clan, the fiercely independent chief answers to no one—especially not to his alluring new bride, bartered to him in a bid to secure his command of the deadliest fighting force the world has ever seen. The treacherous chit who made her way to Tor’s bed may have won his hand, but she will never claim his heart.Although her husband’s reputation is as fierce as his manner, Christina Fraser believes that something softer hides beneath his brutal shell. But the only warmth she feels is in their bed, in glorious moments of white-hot desire that disappear with the dawn. When Christina’s reckless bid to win her husband’s love goes awry and thrusts them into danger on the eve of war, Tor will face his ultimate battle: to save his wife and to open his heart—before it’s too late.

Enjoyed and recommend for highland enthusiasts. All the “Mc-names” and different clans get confusing but as I have read on in the series it gets better. Amazing to hear how closely the author has stayed historically accurate - obviously, the love stories are fictional but wonderfully imagined! The lusty Scots! The narrator did a great job too!

Not sure why other readers/listeners have been so harsh, because the narrator was great and the story was too. It’s worth the listen!

This is yet another period piece romance that excuses dysfunctional relationships and psychologically/emotionally abusive men as just part of that era. It may be mostly factual but we don’t have to romanticize abusive behavior just because they apologize at the end of the story. I also wish male readers put more of an effort to make semi believable female voices, women don’t often have a convincing male voice either but they seem to be better at a doing voices that at least don’t detract from the story more often than men in my experience.

The female heroine was very whinny. And a man reader cannot product a sexy lady’s tone. The female heroine needed more back bone but did appreciate the study of heritage of Scotland and the Isles.
