Publisher's Summary

She's wrong for him in every way, so why can't he stop thinking about her?

Cyrus MacKenzie, a powerful Highland chief and newly titled Earl of Stornmor, is in search of the perfect bride. The young, naive daughter of a marquess should do nicely, but she's not the one who has captured his attention. 

Lady Elspeth Seton, Baroness Grey, is a widow with a secret past. She's also a cunning businesswoman who has fought for everything she has. When a mysterious enemy turns her own guards against her and attempts to steal every piece of property she owns, she's uncertain who to rely on. With his fearsome warlord reputation and battle-hardened scowl, Cyrus is the last man she wishes to seek help from, but he's the only one offering it. She wants no domineering Highland earl taking control of her life, but in order to protect her home and her businesses, she must learn to trust him.

More accustomed to laying siege to castles than charming the ladies, Cyrus has no patience for stubbornly secretive women like Elspeth. He's infamous for deadly glares that terrify lesser men, but he's impressed by Elspeth's strength, fortitude, and canniness, for she not only stands toe-to-toe with him but also stands beside him to confront the enemy.

How can one ginger-haired lady with intoxicating eyes the color of whisky besiege his stone-cold heart? Even though his mind tells him she's the absolute worst woman for him, in his heart, he knows he will risk life and limb to protect her from the brutal Lowland laird bent on destroying her.

Mixed bag of everything...

This story has it all: love story, action packed, deception, forbidden love, stolen moments...
But, at the same time, I wondered why things were happening the way they were. Surely there was an easier way out.
The narration is just awesome. Dave Gillies does a super job.
This book is worth listening to. Enjoy!

He is searching, She is not.

Elspeth is completely happy working in her shops and creating beautiful gowns for her wealthy customers.
Cyrus is in search of a titled wealthy young lady to marry.

Elspeth has problems at home and the gathering she has been invited to is not as much fun as she thought it would be so she takes off home but her coach crashes and Cyrus decides to take her home and make sure she is alright before leaving. This is just the beginning of her problems.

The trials they go through to find out who is tormenting Elspeth causes them to face some big issues.

Dave Gillies as narrator is absolutely wonderful at bringing each and every word to life. His voice and energy will make you break out in chill bumps and make you feel like you are there...

Fabulous!

Vonda has written another exciting story filled with action and love. A real page turner!
The Earl of Stommor, Cyrus MacKenzie was to sign a marriage contract for the hand of Lady Lily. When he met Lady Elspeth Seton, Baroness Grey, he could not get her out of his mind. She was a spitfire that had a head for business and didn’t want a domineering Highlander. When the sparks began to fly between them, things got heated up.
Dave Gillian had the perfect accents for the characters and he did a wonderful job narrating it.

Cyrus has always been one of my favorite characters in this series and I'm so very happy that the Cover Art is exactly how I have always pictured him in my head! This is book 10 I believe in a fabulous series by Vonda Sinclair. If you haven't read them all, it will enhance the experience of moving through the lives of these amazing characters. The detail of the times and the characters gently drag you back in time to the sidelines of the story. David Gillies is a masterful narrator with a vast amount of experience in performing the voices for the various characters. This is one you definitely don't want to miss! 5 star story as well as 5 star narration. 💗
