About this listen

A sizzling, irresistible, adventure-filled, medieval Scottish romance series from USA Today bestselling author, Eliza Knight. Three Scottish brothers, born minutes apart, must safeguard the lands their father left each of them as their legacy, against their enemies, and the feisty, independent ladies who remind them what it is to be human and loved.

Lady Douglass de Clifford is reticent about marrying an English soldier who holds a Scottish castle for their king. After all, she doesn’t really believe the English should be battling the Scots for their own land. When she arrives in Dumfries, their party is unexpectedly ambushed. Besieged by rebel Scots, she is tossed from her horse, only to be saved by a Highland warrior who promises safety even as he absconds with her. She vows to run away, until his tender kiss makes her doubt everything she has ever known.

Laird Noah Sinclair had not expected to find an English bride in the center of his battle, and now he is determined to take from his enemy what he prizes most—his lady. As the eldest of his brothers and laird of his clan, he has a responsibility to those who look to him for leadership. But when Lady Douglass threatens to run away and is nearly accosted by an outlaw, he is determined to prove to everyone that she is his and his alone. While at first his decision to steal the prize seemed like a punishment, her kiss proves to be rewarding all on its own.

But a love between them seems impossible. Despite the passion igniting between Noah and Douglass, they only wed for her protection and for his revenge. Tucked away from battle at Castle Buanaiche in the northern most part of the Highlands, Noah fears misfortune may befall his clan for stealing another man’s bride—and it seems like danger is a little closer at hand than they both expected.

A great story with terrific characters. A lot of history involved. I felt like I was with them. I look forward to reading more from the author.

it wasn't a bad story, it was exceedingly generic.. it just lacked something not sure what. there were some endearing characters, just not expanded on enough. could have been far more interesting. but I can see how others would really like it.

it was okay

It was an even story and being read by a man was a nice change to the stories I have listened to recently.

The abduction really set the scene for me.

This book had all the elements..an English damsel with an unwanted betrothal, a villain or two, the heroic “heathen Scot”, and the various characters and scenarios in between to keep this 14th century story ticking along. Unfortunately, it just didn’t grab me, although it held just enough interest to see me to the end to hear the outcome whilst I did some gardening. I know I wouldn’t have finished if I were to sit down and read the book. I prefer a tighter story with a bit more meat on the bone. NB: For as little as the attention was on Alice, I liked her because she spoke of what she liked and got what she wanted without much apparent faffing about. (You go girl!)

Not for me but could be for you.
