She was a pawn in a game of kings. He was the wolf waiting in the shadows.

Olivia Blackthorn is a long way from the refined ballrooms of London. Sold by her father to secure trade routes, she is sent north to the rugged, mist-shrouded Highlands to marry a man feared by all: Graeme Cameron, the "Highland Wolf."

To the English, Graeme is a necessary barbarian. To his own clan, he is a grieving leader struggling to hold his lands. And to Olivia, he is a cold, brooding stranger who views their marriage as nothing more than a strategic shield against his rivals.

A marriage born of necessity. A passion forged in fire.

Surrounded by a clan that views English blood as a betrayal, Olivia must do the impossible: earn the respect of the Camerons. From nursing the sick through a deadly fever to mending the heart of Graeme’s motherless son, she slowly transforms from a "Sassenach" intruder into the soul of the castle.

But the rival Laird Campbell will not see the Camerons rise.

When Campbell lures Graeme away, leaving the castle vulnerable, Olivia is faced with an impossible choice: flee back to the safety of England or stand with the people she has come to love. With only twenty defenders against an army of three hundred, the "delicate" English lady must pick up the keys to the fortress and lead a desperate defense.

One castle. One impossible siege. One love that will rewrite Highland history.

Reluctant Highland Bride is a Scottish Historical Romance featuring a fierce heroine, a protective hero, and a sweeping journey from enemies to soulmates. Perfect for fans of Outlander and historical epics, this story contains a guaranteed HEA and no cliffhangers.

Story was good

Hated the virtual narration. No attempt at dialect or gender differences. Hard to tell what character was speaking.

The gradual build of this relationship

His name is Allister Macgregor not Graeme Cameron, please correct the name of the main male protagonist

She was a shadow trying to fit in

I didn’t like how the clan kept comparing her to the late wife of the lord. Something I wouldn’t put up with

Virtual Voice is a bummer

I hope Virtual Voice does not take over. Real human readers assign different voices to different characters, and the voices reflect the emotions from moment to moment. VV does none of that.

Just awful - nothing pleasant to say at all

You might have written a good story, and I might be tempted to read the e-book, but I could not listen to this. The AI voice is awful. Pay to have it produced or produce it yourself. This is awful.
