Acerca de esta escucha

Anora, the shepherdess, finds a half-naked man in her bed, so what's a woman living alone in a cottage in the Lowlands of Scotland supposed to do? Prod him with her pitchfork to chase him off! Only the man is not just a traveler seeking her bed for a rest-but a wounded Highlander, who fights back, swinging his sword!

Niall MacNeill is searching for a Frenchwoman of nobility to escort to his cousin's castle for safekeeping, when he and his friend, Gunnolf, are attacked by another Highland clan, seeking the same woman. The other Highlanders wish to sell her to the highest bidder-English or French-it does not matter.

Niall takes refuge in a sheepherder's cottage to heal up from his wounds and discovers the shepherdess taking care of him may very well be the woman he seeks. He has no intention of doing anything but what his cousin requests of him-ensure her safety on their way to Craigly Castle-but when the lass so bravely wields her pitchfork at him, he is thinking of other, more interesting possibilities.

An alternate destination has them meeting up with her French relatives and the Uncle who is her protector. A decision is made and accepted. Nial promises to give Anora what she's lost.

The Highlander is an action packed historical adventure full of passion and danger. Terry Spear weaves a tale of instant attraction that grows into love. A woman in danger leads a Highlander to the woman, he must protect and tries to keep at arms length with no luck. It was a surprise that this was a historical book. I'd read and listened to Terry Spear in the past but they were her shifter books. So this came as a pleasant surprise. I'm looking forward to reading the rest of her Highlanders series.

The Highlander's mission results in love!

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

The Hero and Heroine are together almost the entire story.

How could the performance have been better?

Rosalind Ashford's voice drones on and on. Within the first five minutes I knew it would be a chore just to continue to listen. She tried to affect character voices, but it wasn't done very well. Please don't ruin other audio books by using Rosalind Ashford.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

There was always something happening and never really had a dull moment. The story would either be better if you read it from the book or if it had a different narrator.

Book cover photo better than the book...

I have a hard time giving a really bad review. So I will not be malicious. There is so much about this book and it's writing I could pick apart...but when it comes right down to it......it's just BAD. I couldn't get I to it because it was so wishy washy.....the story...the characters....both undeveloped. The male lead was horrible and unbelievable for a Highlander.
I think I got this book on sale or buy one get one free.....still it was not worth the time I spent listening. I can't believe I finished it.
Rosalind Ashford is good and maybe the only reason I could finish it..

Sadly....it's not good...don't know how I finished
