Highlander Mine

De: Juliette Miller

Narrado por: Carolyn Bonnyman

Deep in the lush Highlands, a powerful laird with everything to lose must risk it all for the lass who storms into his keep - and his heart.

Raised on the debauched margins of society, Amelia Taylor depends upon her quick wit and fiery spirit to survive. When danger closes in on her already precarious home, she flees into the Highlands and finds refuge in the iron-strong circle of Clan Mackenzie. There, her lack of propriety and intriguing beauty draw the attentions of their formidable leader. But to remain safe from pursuit, she must conceal her identity, even if it means deceiving Laird Knox Mackenzie.

A fiercely guarded and staunchly moral warrior, Knox never expected a ravishing stranger like Amelia to reawaken his desires. Yet as their heated confrontations unlock untold passion, temptation proves impossible to resist. So when Amelia's tapestry of lies begins to unravel, the secrets from her dark past threaten both his Clan and a future they can only dare to dream of....

A good surprise!

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

One of the better, definitely. Unique story, with differentiated characters, though I wish there was more time devoted to the beginning, before she runs, to give a better feel for the situation, and would have made it less of a fluffy piece.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Amelia. She is a strong protagonist without becoming a shrew. I suppose since it is first person, that might skew my opinion slightly, and she might be a tad of an unreliable narrator, as she views the keep with rose tinted glasses.

Which scene was your favorite?

Boat scene...the one not in the water. Yep, listen or read the book, and you will understand. Yummy, with a taste of determination.

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

A gambler to the core? Not sure

Any additional comments?

This is a rare find, a good historical romance written in first person. I wanted to smack Hamish quite a few times; the author kept telling us he was brilliant, but he was a bit annoying overall, and I did not see how he was anything above the norm. There isn't much detail given on the everyday hardships of the people at the keep, though this might be intentional, to show the protagonist viewing the place as paradise. I wish it were a touch grittier. As it was, it was good, but missing that extra something that would have made it great. The narrator was a nice surprise. Haven't listened to her before, but she did a very good job.

Loved this story!!

Any additional comments?

This was a story well written and entertaining. Just steamy enough and I was sorry to see it end. Can't wait for another one....hopefully! The narrator was excellent. I had never heard her before, but will definitely listen to her again..

Best Highlander Romance!

I read over 100 Highlander romance novels and this is my absolutely favorite of all time!!! Wish there were more books by this author and narrator combination on audible.

Typical steamy romance

I selected this book for the performer and she did a great job. I haven’t read a steamy romance in a long, long time and it’s still not my thing. I like a little more depth and a little less heaving but it was still and enjoyable book because of the narrator.

Loved it

Loved the narration. By far one of the most enjoyable. Also really liked the book. How bout it audible, how bout putting the first book in this trilogy on audible. All three are great. Juliette Miller is a great story teller. Wish there were more books of hers on audible. Aw well. Off to read/listen to more fantastic stories...
