Conquered by the Highlander

Publisher's Summary

After losing his betrothed, Ceana, to a Lowlander, Laird Gabriel MacKinnon is charged with saving her cousin along with a brood of children from an impenetrable castle. Though the lady he's been tasked with protecting has been accused of a heinous crime, Gabriel has no fear of her. In fact he's a little irritated at the prospect of delivering her to her kin. But this hardened, cold warrior just may find his heart melting, for the hellion brings out a passionate side he'd thought long buried.

Lady Brenna has had more than her share of hardships, and when freedom looks to be on the brink of her horizon, she's not about to let some moody Highlander take it all away. She'll stop at nothing to keep her children safe - and to guard her heart - even though the warrior's heated kiss threatens to change every vow she's ever made and every belief about love she's ever known.

Contains mature themes.

A Little Predictable But Enjoyable

Nice start to a new series. I enjoyed this book because I got into the characters. Brenna is a protective mother, and when you learn what happened to her, it is understandable. Also, Gabriel is a little gun-shy when it comes to relationships. That is understandable as well. However enjoyable, the ending seemed rushed.

Antony Ferguson is always good.

Starts out great..ends up rushed

The main male character started as a fearsome Warrior and ended up being whiny and to nice. The female main character started out sassy-then is taken, abused, beaten and broken. her captives die, she is blamed and now she’s Sassy again...the story moves along like it about to have a great point then, it leaves you wondering did I miss it? There was so much about this book that could have been superb but I felt it just kept missing the mark. I loved the possibilities these characters could have had.

A+

loved everything from the story to the narration of this book. I don't think I'll be disappointed with the next book

Very enjoyable read!! Great narration!!

Where does Conquered by the Highlander rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

at the top of the list, extremely enjoyable, if Gabriel had spanked her it would be a five star book.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Conquered by the Highlander?

There are many memorable moments but one of my favorites is when Brenna is rescued from being whipped at the abbey because this is really when she and Gabriel recognize the depth of their love for each other.

Which scene was your favorite?

Every scene early on where Gabriel and Brenna are experiencing the sexual tension between them; my favorite might be when he comes to rescue her and the bairns from their tower room at the castle and she is so dead set on thinking the worse of his every action.

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

Why would anyone go to a movie when they can stay home and read audio books????

good book, quick ending

the ending was too short. I wanted an epilogue. :( otherwise it was a great book!

Too Much Flip Flop

I just couldn't take all the inconsistencies. H&H both, but mostly Heroine spent most of the time going from absolute hatred, fear and distrust to absolute adoration and complete trust with no reason for either. Instant attraction is fine, but the relationship never built or over came issues. It just flip flopped back and forth. Brenna would consent to do this or that and then right in the middle suddenly stop and demand something stupid before she would go on. Plus, I usually like Antony Ferguson as a narrator, but this time, I had to laugh every time he said Brenner instead of Brenna.

Wonderful

Did something different this time with a book. I bought the audio before the ebook. Absolutely loved it. Story was wonderful, narrative was great. Will absolutely buy more books from this author..

The story seems a little forced. Very predictable

The story seems a little forced. Very predictable. there really wasn't much excitement and the parts that should have been very sexy came of as flat. The narrator did a fair job of the warrior's voice,. but wasn't so excitingas a woman.
