About this listen

From the best-selling author of the Stolen Bride series comes a brand new and exciting family saga!

For fans of Scottish historical romance, the Sutherland Legacy propels you into the Highlands with tales of daring adventure, irresistible heroes, and passion!

Sir Niall Oliphant was betrothed to the Bruce's daughter, Princess Elizabeth, until she declares that his wound in battle has incapacitated him as a man. Because he does not wish to marry the spoiled royal, he is glad to pass her off to his brother Sir Walter. He's more than content to fade into the background with his injuries and remain a bachelor forever. Until he is presented with an offer from the Earl of Sutherland to marry his only daughter, a lass more beautiful than any other, who makes him want to stand up and fight again.

Bella Sutherland, daughter of one of the most powerful earls and Highland chieftains in Scotland, can marry anyone she wants - but she wants no one. When she spies the injured warrior at the Yule festival who has been shunned by the Bruce's own daughter, she makes her choice. What is better than no husband? A husband who cannot truly be husband at all. But she won't be satisfied with letting him languish. If there's one thing she's learned, its not to give up. With them both satisfied that they are gaining a marriage in name only, imagine their surprise when love blossoms and passion ignites?

I was rather disappointed, I love historical romance and have listened to way too many of them. This book just didn't cut it. The characters could have had so much depth but they didn't. I felt they changed their minds about things so easily and their thoughts weren't deep. I didn't fall in love with these characters, I didn't dislike the characters either, I felt nothing for them.

worth listening to as background sounds only

Strong determination to overcome loss with strong support. Strength of character to never give up and believe in your dream love.

Struggled with the narration. No depth to the characters in the story, females sounded like they were read by Benny Hill in comedy skit.

Poor Narration

A well written simple but interesting story. I love how Bella and Niall were perfectly suited to each other and seemed destined to be together.
I’ve read a previous reviewer comment stating how the use of profanity was off putting however I beg to differ. What little there was suited the context and was delivered aptly by the narrator.

If not for the delivery of Bella’s dialogue, I would’ve said the narration was excellent however it seemed Bella’s tone always sounded the same irrespective of situation, emotion and what she was saying. It’s a pity. I wish a female narrator had performed all of the female voices.

A good story

A true and brilliantly portrayed story of the times as they were. It took me back to the way they had to defend and live their lives. A different world as ours is today brilliant series.
