Frederick's Queen

The Clan Graham Series

By: Suzan Tisdale

Narrated by: Brad Wills

There can be no light without darkness, no hope without despair, no love without heartache

Some scars can't be seen

When the handsome Frederick Mackintosh offers to marry Aggie McLaren, she is certain 'tis greed or insanity that motivates him. Besides land and a chance at a chiefdom, she believes she has nothing to offer. She soon learns nothing could be further from the truth. Hope she thought long lost blooms with her husband's kindness, his honor, and his fierce determination to make their marriage and their clan a success.

Sometimes perfection is imperfect

Aggie McLaren is not Frederick Mackintosh's image of the perfect wife. She isn't well read, vivacious, or voluptuous. Wee, timid, and unable to speak, it is a glimpse of her smile and the chance to be chief of his own clan that propels him to offer for her hand. Frederick will do whatever he must in order to see her smile again and to help her find her voice.

Any additional comments?

I absolutely loved this book when it first came out & enjoyed the audible version even more so. Brad Wills has a deep & sexy voice that makes you hang on every word. I loved this story & it has many twists & turns with Frederick & Aggie learning to rely on each other...wonderful love story with well developed characters & a great story line. My favorite book from this author...& I've read them all!

Difficult but excellently written

This is a difficult story. Performance is awesome. Tisdale obviously understands women who have been abused. However, sometimes it is painful to hear. And somewhat relentless. But isn't that the way of it. Can only listen for short periods of time. It's almost too much. Well done but hard.

Not As Good As The Previous Book

while still a well written w/ a good storyline, I didn't care for it as much as the last book. At 17 hours it felt drawn out, there was more that I felt that the story have been drawn to a close. The narrator is fantastic though.

Wonderful!

Aggie's father, who was a mean and vulgar man, set out to find her a husband. He was not going to live long because he had a lung disease. Her father was Chief of the clan and he did not think she could fill that duty. Aggie had been beaten by him many times. She had learned to keep her mouth shut and not speak or she would get another thrashing. Frederick had gone to the Kirk to ask God to give him a wife. He had watched Rowan with his wife and decided that is what he needed. When Aggie and her father arrived at Rowan's Keep, Frederick saw her father hit her and treat her mean. His heartstrings pulled at the sight of the lass.
This book came alive with the great talent of Brad Wills as narrator and the great storytelling of Suzan Tisdale. It will pull every emotion out of you. Laughter, anger, tears and you will tense with muscles pulled tight.
