Publisher's summary

Ewan McCabe, the eldest, is a warrior determined to vanquish his enemy. Now, with the time ripe for battle, his men are ready and Ewan is poised to take back what is his-until a blue-eyed, raven-haired temptress is thrust upon him. Mairin may be the salvation of Ewan's clan, but for a man who dreams only of revenge, matters of the heart are strange territory to conquer. The illegitimate daughter of the king, Mairin possesses prized property that has made her a pawn-and wary of love. Her worst fears are realized when she is rescued from peril only to be forced into marriage by her charismatic and commanding savior, Ewan McCabe. But her attraction to her ruggedly powerful new husband makes her crave his surprisingly tender touch; her body comes alive under his sensual mastery. And as war draws near, Mairin's strength, spirit, and passion challenge Ewan to conquer his demons-and embrace a love that means more than revenge or land.

I want a Highlander!!

If you could sum up In Bed with a Highlander in three words, what would they be?

Exciting, Seductive, Enveloping

What other book might you compare In Bed with a Highlander to and why?

I don't think I could compare it to another book. I dare say that this is the first book, besides my normal authors, that I felt was a real page turner. I loved it on its on, but if I HAD to compare it to another book, despite being two completely different schools of writing, I would have to say the Sleeping Beauty series.

Which character – as performed by Kirsten Potter – was your favorite?

I loved all the characters she played. Ms. Potter grabbed you with her Scottish accent, and made you feel like you were right there with them. I loved Calen, he is exactly what I would think a Highlander would be.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

To get his revenge, he must steal her heart.

Any additional comments?

I am in love with the series so far. I love the writing, the performer, Ms. Potter, and the entire book. I am eagerly awaiting more. I <3 Highlanders.

I loved thebook!

Great characters. Fun story, though not historically accurate. Fun read--though the next one is the best in the series.

All time best

This book puts all other romance novels to shame. I do not want to give the story away but I fell in love with the characters immediately. I kept wondering where she was going to take me next in this journey. I am definitely a new fan now. I also need to say the narrator is beyond talented. She is hands down the best I have ever heard. I dont know if authors have a say in narrators but she should be the person they all want narrating and performing their stories.

So glad there are two more books in this series!

Any additional comments?

This is the first book I've listened to by Maya Banks. I found myself picking up my iPod every time I had a spare moment, even if it was just for five minutes. The story was good, grabbed me at the first page, and the characters likable. Ms Banks did a wonderful job with her secondary characters, I am hoping they get a grand story of their own.

For now, I am now off to buy the other two books in this series.

Not my cup of tea

I wanted to hear Scottish accents and sex so I decided to try this out. I technically got what I was looking for, but it didn't satisfy me. I think if I were into highlander romances more, or if I were less into paranormal romance this would have been cool, but it didn't scratch my itch like I wanted it to. It wasn't bad, just totally not what gets me going.

This was a great and exciting story

I haven't read many romance novels but this was wonderful. It was a little bit like Fifty Shades (with much better romance) meets Braveheart. I can't wait to read Book 2 of the series. I do wish they would take that picture off the front cover. It's nothing like I would have pictured either of them.
Listen to this, sit back and enjoy.
