Reluctant Highland Bride

A Scottish Highlander Historical Romance

A forced marriage. A hardened laird. A love neither of them saw coming.

When spirited English noblewoman Olivia Blackthorn is wed to Alastair MacGregor — the Highland Wolf — she trades her sheltered life for a windswept castle, an icy husband, and a clan that sees her as the enemy. But beneath Alastair’s brooding silence lies a man haunted by loss, bound by duty, and unprepared for the fierce-hearted woman determined to claim more than his name.

As bitter rivalries threaten the fragile peace between the MacGregors and their enemies, Olivia’s loyalty and courage are put to the ultimate test. She may have entered the Highlands as a pawn, but when her new family faces war, she’ll fight like a Highlander — for her home, her place, and the laird who never expected to love again.

A sweeping, emotional romance set against the wild beauty of Scotland, Reluctant Highland Bride is a story of passion, sacrifice, and the kind of love that changes everything.

Story was good

Hated the virtual narration. No attempt at dialect or gender differences. Hard to tell what character was speaking.

She was a shadow trying to fit in

I didn’t like how the clan kept comparing her to the late wife of the lord. Something I wouldn’t put up with

Just awful - nothing pleasant to say at all

You might have written a good story, and I might be tempted to read the e-book, but I could not listen to this. The AI voice is awful. Pay to have it produced or produce it yourself. This is awful.

Virtual Voice is a bummer

I hope Virtual Voice does not take over. Real human readers assign different voices to different characters, and the voices reflect the emotions from moment to moment. VV does none of that.
