The Highlander’s Destiny

Highlander Rogues Series, Book 2

By: Mary Wine

Narrated by: Timothy Campbell

Faolan McKay was the spawn of recklessness. A child conceived by moonlight outside the bonds of wedlock. His mother was banished to the rocky shores of the Highlands where she committed an even greater sin than seducing the laird's son - she survived. And raised her son to be everything everyone whispered about him. To be feared was better than any position or sword.

Cora Mackenzie has been promised since she was five. But her intended has never even penned her a single note. Cora takes to the moors, finding satisfaction in building strength and pitting herself against the elements.

She had to be a siren.

Faolan wasn't one for tales by the firelight, but seeing the woman perched on the rocks of his island made him stop and stare. Battered by the wind and rain, she cared nothing for her hair or dress. Aye, a mythical creature, one he should ignore but just can't seem to. Fate has locked them together, leaving him battling to resist the pull of his guest.

Whether or not she wants to know the man who saved her isn't up to her. A storm forces them to shelter together or die if they attempt to leave. She might not survive the encounter, but it's hardly the first time life has offered Cora no choice but to face what is placed before her.

So she'll stand firm and let fate guide her.

Destiny

Another great Mary Wine read and great narrator. Again loved the characters and heartwarming story!! Thank you!!

I wish all her books were narrated by this man.

Timothy Campbell is one of the best narrators out there. I wish all of Mary Wine's books were narrated by him.

Suspenseful plot. Great characters.

Loved the complex plot development and intrigue. Enjoyed the historically accurate conflicts and fascinating cultural insights. Great leading male and female personalities and motivations.

Great how the thunderstorms keep intertwining

I enjoyed the story until the last hour and half when it should have been at best. The Ula or Una character was at the forefront of being a deceiver. I hate it when the lovers want to depend on the opinion of outsiders instead of each other. It can destroy the story. I have honestly thrown books out because of that. I was thankful that the couple didn't waste too much time in petty stuff.
