About this audiobook

Passion flares between enemies

Two hotheaded Highlanders, the offspring of feuding lairds, are tricked by the King's Regent into a desperate choice: marry or die. Bhaic MacPherson is more disposed to lead his clan into battle than stay married to the daughter of his enemy. But perhaps the intensity of his feelings has more to do with desire than hostility.

And the Highlands ignite

Ailis Robertson wanted a husband, not a savage-but when her family was faced with a deadly ultimatum, she had no choice. The union of a MacPherson and a Robertson could end three generations of hostilities between the two families, but can bitter rivals truly become lovers?

    Marriage and feuding clans!When Ailis Robertson is forced into marriage to the son of the clan's bitter enemies, Bhaic MacPherson by the Kings's Regent her despair knows no bounds. Not that Bhiac is any happier. In fact his treatment of her, dumping her at his castle, ignoring her and in that non acknowledgement of Ailis's place as the Lady of the Castle, sowing the seeds for further hurt and unhappiness.I enjoyed reading Highland Spitfire, although the storyline was a tad predictable. All those feuding Scots and the hated English conquerors making them dance to their tunes. An indisputable historical fact that has been working so well for the historical romance genre.Plenty of scope for intrigue, unforgiving causes, enmity...and love!The reluctant wife who wins over the castles staff ...and eventually its Laird is a tried and true theme but here it works.I look forward to brother Marcus's story.A NetGalley ARC

    This was fine, but it felt kinda 'generic highlander romance'. I will go ahead and still try the next one though.

    I remain a bit unclear on if I liked this or not. The sense of the unfair permeates the story to an extent that does not permit full enjoyment.

    Forced marriage trope is one of my favorite tropes and when well done, it can be actually a lot of fun. Just think, two people from feuding clans are forced to marry and both are very weary of not just each other but of everyone around them.

    I'm sorry, but I had a lot of trouble connecting to the two main leads. I was hoping for at least a bit of chemistry, but ... no. I felt that they were just ... there. Their animosity took too long to be resolved and that bothered me.

    The only thing I did like is the way the author took her time in writing about the clans and the life they lead. She obviously did her research and I enjoyed that aspect of the story very much.

    I have to be honest and say, just skip it.
