Publisher's summary

An alluring laird....

He was known throughout the kingdom as Hawk, legendary predator of the battlefield and the boudoir. No woman could refuse his touch, but no woman ever stirred his heart - until a vengeful fairy tumbled Adrienne de Simone out of modern-day Seattle and into medieval Scotland.

Captive in a century not her own, entirely too bold, too outspoken, she was an irresistible challenge to the 16th-century rogue. Coerced into a marriage with Hawk, Adrienne vowed to keep him at arm's length - but his sweet seduction played havoc with her resolve.

A prisoner in time....

She had a perfect "no" on her perfect lips for the notorious laird, but Hawk swore she would whisper his name with desire, begging for the passion he longed to ignite within her. Not even the barriers of time and space would keep him from winning her love. Despite her uncertainty about following the promptings of her own passionate heart, Adrienne's reservations were no match for Hawk's determination to keep her by his side.

Great Scot! Don't miss our other titles in the Highlander series.

Critic reviews

"Phil Gigante's handling of the prose in Moning's clever paranormal romance is smooth and engaging, but it is his character voicings that truly make this recording one to remember." (AudioFile)

funny and different

the story was different than the usual time travel. there was one point when I was a little annoyed with the "he/she misunderstood each other" because it can only drag on so long. I have to say the narrator was amazing.

Better read than heard

Is there anything you would change about this book?

This is my second time going through this story. I read it the first time years ago and continued on to the Fever Series. Since then, I have read the Outlander Series and have been to Scotland a few times. The narrator has more of an Irish accent than Scottish which drives me crazy and the dialogue is not accurate to the time. The Scottish characters should have had more gaelic.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Phil Gigante?

Davina Porter

Could you see Beyond the Highland Mist being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

no

Any additional comments?

I still like the story. I just prefer reading it over this narrator.

I could listen to this over and over again. Phil Gigante could read the phone book and I still would melt.

Drawn out,

This book , in my opinion, is the worst out of the entire series
I find it drawn out and the “ spicy parts” epiphany of a cliche
I often wondered ,if it was supposed to be a parody?
On a flip side,the narrator is absolutely amazing and only reason I made it through the book
Phill Giante it the best narrator
