Publisher's summary

When Raelynd Schellden and her sister are caught in the stables with the notorious McTiernay twins, her father sees not scandal, but opportunity. The future of his clan is uncertain, and a double engagement - even under false pretenses - will lend security to his people and protect his beloved daughters from power-mad fools. But Raelynd's designated intended interests her far less than his quietly powerful brother, Crevan, a man born to lead. Though bound by honor and committed to his sworn duty, Crevan cannot resist a taste of Raelynd's crimson lips when offered - and then another and another - until the unlikely couple is entangled in both a public deception and each other's hearts.

Critic reviews

"Like a delightful Shakespearean comedy, Sinclair's latest has humor, passion and sexual tension." ( RT Book Reviews)

Enjoyed

Cute black with fun family chemistry. Look forward to listening to more from this author

Skipping

The story was great but yet again parts were missed due to this ongoing issue

Tempting the Highlander

This was not as good as the first books .. a bit boring .. the narrator was good

Pleasantly Surprised!

Would you listen to Tempting the Highlander again? Why?

Yes. The story was great and Flosnik did a phenomenal job.

What did you like best about this story?

I loved that there were 3 possible love stories going on. I loved that Kraven stuttered!

What does Anne Flosnik bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She bring the story to life.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I was moved when everyone took credit for the marriage.

Any additional comments?

It's a great read. I initially thought that it would have too much going on but it flowed well.

liked it.

this was a good book, not great, but good. the only thing missing were surprises and a little "on the edge of your seat" intrigue.

An enjoyable listen 4 brothers down & only 3 to go

In this book we get not one but two handsome McTiernay Highland brothers - Craig and Crevan with their muscled bodies, kilts and broad tanned shoulders (mind get out of the gutter) ok I'm back.... but this is mainly Crevan's story and once I started listening to it, it hooked me in and I just couldn't stop listening.

Two sets of twins, the McTiernays and the Shelldyn girls Raeland and Merlel who have been spoilt rotten by their loving Father but they all get manipulated by one person or another into a false engagement with humorous, touching, aggravating, annoying yet entertaining and sweet results. There's a male Cousin Cyric who doesn't care which of the girls he'll marry but there's a surprise or two waiting for him.

Crevan isn't your typical Alpha hero but your heart goes out to him as he's misunderstood, insecure, has a stammer and feels he's not good enough for the girl he loves. But, with the help, guidance and interference of big brother Conor, Laurel and their children (book1) things could work out for the six main characters involved whose flawed characters all mature and bloom in this well-written, but unbelievable plot which ends in romance and two marriages..... but exactly who marries who is a mystery until the very end.

Worth a credit? Again, Ms Sinclair jumps from the story to the Epilogue and totally misses the best bit but despite that this has been another entertaining listen which was worth a credit.

The Not So Perfect McTiernay Brother - Nice!

This is a good book because everyone is not perfect. There are shortcomings that come to the for regarding Crevan and Raelynd and it makes the story interesting.

A series in kilts

The ending before the epilogues are abrupt, but it’s just her style. I don’t mind it so much that I won’t listen to any more books. I am a sucker for a series in kilts, and these are good.

Good have been better!

I think the author out did herself with seven brothers and is now lacking in motivation for the remaining stories to come. The first three books were pretty good and I enjoyed them but I found myself really digging deep just to have finished this book. It was dragged out,a bit meaningless and lacked a lot of spirit. The author could have done a better job. We barely had any passionate scenes and at one point I was lost and had to remember what was happening and where everyone was. If this is how book 4 was, I shudder to imagine what to expect in book 5. Maybe I will be wrong but we will see.

Least romantic

Like seeing more of the family but this one was the least romantic. It was also not as engaging. Again Anne Flosnik was the best part of it.
