Acerca de esta escucha
Heir to the most notorious clan in the Highlands, Hugh MacIain hides his identity while imprisoned in the bowels of Fort William's hell. Aye, this braw warrior has endured horrors that should have seen him dead, though now it appears it's the bloody flux that will send him to Satan's fire.
Optimistic, competent, and captivating, Charlotte Hill takes pity on the fevered prisoner sprawled atop a cot in the fort's surgery. When finally the Highlander opens his eyes, he seizes her heart with a pained stare. Truly, this is no commoner - but in 1692, a warrior loyal to the Jacobite cause and the daughter of a government colonel may as well be worlds apart.
After his escape, Hugh snatches his chance to woo the lass, until disaster strikes. While war and lust for vengeance force Charlotte further from Hugh's arms, the couple's romance seems aimlessly adrift on the open sea. Before they sail too far apart, can the tender love of an English lady coax a determined Highlander from his path of revenge?

When Akira Ayres finds the brawny Scot with a musket ball in his thigh, the healer has no qualms about doing whatever it takes to save his life. Even if it means fleeing with him across the Highlands to tend to his wounds while English redcoats are closing in. Though Akira is as fierce and brave as any of her clansmen, even she's intimidated by the fearsome, brutally handsome Highlander who refuses to reveal his name.

Historia
Clever and bold, Ella Sutherland has won the right to call herself chief of her clan and struggles to hold onto the chiefdom against those who doubt a woman’s rule. When she’s captured by the darkly handsome Sinclair chief, she chooses death over wedding him and giving up her clan to their long-time enemy. For she has a secret, an oath she took years ago to protect and keep the clan seat for a great ruler to come. Cain refuses to let his brother, Death, honor Ella’s choice with an execution. He’s never before met a woman so brave and passionate.

Desperate times call for desperate measures, and no one is more desperate than Highlander Alasdair MacRae. His clan is on the verge of disaster thanks to continuous raids from the lying, thieving, murdering MacKenzies. Their latest strike has left Alasdair’s family on the precipice of starvation, and his brother badly wounded. The time has come to hit back, and what better blow to deliver than to kidnap his enemy’s daughter and use her to negotiate much-needed peace.

Ken Follett's World Without End was a global phenomenon, a work of grand historical sweep beloved by millions of readers and acclaimed by critics. Fall of Giants is his magnificent new historical epic. The first novel in The Century Trilogy, it follows the fates of five interrelated families - American, German, Russian, English, and Welsh - as they move through the world-shaking dramas of the First World War, the Russian Revolution, and the struggle for women's suffrage.

Would you try another book from Amy Jarecki and/or Joel Froomkin?
I have read several of her books. This is the one I liked the leastDid Joel Froomkin do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
No. I often could not make out what characters was talking. I sometimes had a hard time understanding himIf this book were a movie would you go see it?

What did you love best about The Fearless Highlander?
I loved Hugh's and Charlotte's story. I found myself talking to the narrator as I listened to the story especially when the awful injustice was done to Hugh's clan. This part was so heart wrenching. And Charlotte herding the sheep..hahaha...well you'll just have to listen.Great Story

If you could sum up The Fearless Highlander in three words, what would they be?
Sexy, factual, and violent.What other book might you compare The Fearless Highlander to and why?
Outlander in that it takes historical facts and events and creates a fictional love story around them. It also does a good job of taking you back in history by describing life at the time the story takes place with various chronologically-inclined details, which many other historical romances just barely touch upon. When done well, I enjoy getting a cultural experience of the time period while being entertained with interesting characters and a good story; both Outlander and this book do just that.What does Joel Froomkin bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
A voice that fits the characters well. His brogue was so strong at first I had to get acclimated to it, but once I did, it suited the novel nicely. I was pleased with his performance and his ability to differentiate between the various characters.Any additional comments?
This book gets pretty dark at times, and it doesn't shy away from violence, actual or implied. If you're looking for a feel-good, light-hearted historical romance, this isn't for you. This has steamy romance poured over actual barbaric events that took place in Scotland in the late 17th century. I liked this book even more because of this as it makes this story something different, and more accurate, when compared to many other highland romances. Due to my enjoyment of Book One, I look forward to continuing the series.Historical Fiction with a Romance
