    About this audiobook

    Seven McTiernay brothers, each a Highlander born to protect Scotland and her people, warriors known for their quick wits and quicker broadswords. The third brother, Cole, stared death in the face when he was only a boy . . .

    Now Cole McTiernay is a man. And though he resists them in every way, he has responsibilities. The wild northern Highlands need a laird who can guide them to peace. Cole has the army strong enough to accomplish this task. What he doesn't have is the desire to be a leader among men.

    And so he is sent off on a fool's errand: a mission to retrieve something from the very Englishmen Cole has spent his life hating. When he finds that the 'something' is a wild hellion, he balks, determined to make the return to Scotland as hard on her as it was for him to set foot on English soil. But though English herself, Ellenor intrigues him with her fierce spirit, and Cole's heart, deeply locked away for so long, may be vulnerable at last . . .

      I am enjoying this series. This is Cole & Ellenor's story. Cole is very closed off to all people including his family. He is sent to bring an Englishwoman back to his sister-in-law. Eleanor is a mess and very outspoken. In this book 3 there are times I smiled & laughed. Cole & Ellenor do not fight constantly like Laurel & Conor did in book 2 and it was a nice change.

      Loved this Highlander story. Grabs you from the beginning. Can't wait for the next in the series!
    • 5/5
      I reviewed this book for an award about a year ago and I gave it very high marks. Jumping into the series on book three did not hurt one bit, it only made me want to read the first two as soon as I could get my hands on them. The characters were very easy to like and the story was a fun one to follow. I'm a fan of women that aren't easily caught and men that swallow their pride to go after what they truly want. I love that just when I thought the story was drawing to a close, it went deeper and the main character got to avenge his demons. I have not found the other books in the series at any local stores or in nearby libraries. I may just have to order them now that my memory has been refreshed on what a wonderful author Ms. Sinclair is and how much I've missed the McTiernay brothers.
