About this listen

On his way to claim his late father's title, highland chief Connor Brunwood stumbles upon an English lass in a deserted clearing. She's dressed like a man, in shirt and breeches, her blond tresses hidden under a large hat and a foil in her hand, as she practices the art of sword-fighting.

Awed by the sight of her spirited, blue eyes, and graceful, yet alluring movements, Connor calls her bluff, vowing that he will make her his wife. However, that is easier said than done.

Weary of men and their intentions, Henrietta Turner lives and plays by her own rules alone. So far she's thwarted every marriage proposal to come her way - though gentlemen aren't exactly beating down her door. Her scowl and outright manner have sent even the most steadfast of them running for the hills. Good riddance, for Henrietta is hell-bent on remaining unwed.

However, her plans come to an abrupt halt when a devilishly disarming highlander discovers her secret hideout. Undeterred by her rejection, Connor goes over her head to her uncle and secures her hand in marriage.

I get why, but still, this was too long! You could easily have cut out at least an hour without spoiling the story.

The lead-in or rather plot-spoiler to the next book at the end, was totally unnecessary and if you didn't realise there are four more books in the series, I can see how other reviewers find it confusing!

The narrator did a reasonable job at different voices and to my untrained ear did a perfectly good range of Scottish voices too, An annoying negative would be the over-enunciating of a "t" all over the place, I wasn't sure if she was trying to have good diction or if it was an affectation, either way it was very annoying!

Overall, I think of the series so far this is the one I enjoyed the most, although if I had to hear "lass" one more time...!!!

Tooo long!
