Highland Honor

Murray Family, Book 2

By: Hannah Howell

Narrated by: Angela Dawe

Nigel Murray saw through her masquerade from the start: a young woman trying to pass herself off as a page. It almost worked - until she was unmasked in battle with the English, at the point of a sword. Nigel recklessly saved the raven-haired beauty, whose secrets now endangered them both. He spirited her off to Scotland, determined to erase the terror he tasted in her kiss.

Gisele knew the dark side of men, having barely escaped the brutality of her highborn husband, Lord Deveau. Now, with Deveau murdered and a price on her head, she was every man's prey - hunted for a crime she did not commit. Nigel is her only refuge, a handsome stranger who challenged her with a fiery sensuality that burned all fear in its wake. But to truly trust him, Gisele must put the past behind her, and let her heart accept the simple truth... of his undying love.

Highland Honor

Great book. I love her books, they are full of mystery and romance. I would recommend.

It’s a bit rough at the beginning

It took about 7 chapters for me to fully get into it and it was the French accent that was bothering me. It was fine after that. Story was predictable but entertaining. I will continue with this author.

Not best narrator

I wasn't thrilled with this narrator, her "breathy" voice for men made them sound a bit like Marlon Brando from The Godfather. Her French accent wasn't much better.
Story itself was ok, too many "smiled faintly", "ending the intimacy of the embrace"...dinnae, cannae, etc

I want a highlander

Worth the credit plenty of adventures did not enjoy the end very much wanted more details after they finally get together.

Dawe is an acquired taste

This was a typical highlander saves lass and then marries her story. It was an average book with no surprises. Angela Dawe takes some getting used to. She is no Davina Porter, she not even a Nicola Barber or Anne Flosnik but I got used to her enough to enjoy the book and all things considered, like imitating male voices, she did okay.
