About this listen

Scotland, 1345.

They call him Wee William. Though he stands nearly seven feet tall, with arms and legs the size of tree trunks and hands as big as buckets, there is nothing wee about him. His scowl alone is enough to make most men's bones rattle with fear. And women, rather than swooning, tend to run in the opposite direction.

The giant Highlander is a self-proclaimed bachelor who has sworn for years that there isn't a woman in all of Scotland worth shaving his beard for, and for good reason. Years ago, after a bonny young lass broke his heart and left his dignity in shreds, he swore never again to put it in such peril. As a testament to his sincerity, he vowed never again to shave his beard.

Then he met her. In a single heartbeat, Wee William was lost. Forever lost to a brown-haired beauty with gray-blue eyes brimming with tears - a woman in need.

On her wedding night, Nora realized she made a terrible mistake. She had agreed to wed Horace Crawford when he promised her younger siblings would live with them. He soon broke his word and sent them away. Horace soon proved a harsh, cruel husband who owned no heart, nor a shred of decency.

On a dark, cold winter's night, when Nora had almost given up hope of ever saving her siblings and herself, God answered her prayers in a most peculiar way. Through a band of fierce Highlanders on a mission to retrieve small but priceless treasures. Treasures she had unwittingly harbored.

Little did the Highlanders know they would return with more than those treasures - they would return with Wee William's Woman.

Good narration

This was my favorite book of this series. I had read it a few months back and while doing some painting projects around the house and decided I would listen to the story while doing so. Sometimes hearing the book being narrated does nothing for the story, however that was not the case with this book. Wee William is huge, and he is quite the warrior, yet he's also man that understands worthwhile values in life. It's these very values that he wants, and and yet simultaneously he fears responsibility of that endears me to Wee William. To him being a husband and having family is the most important thing a man can do in his life. What's not to love about that? He worries more about what he considers his shortcomings rather than focusing on what it is he has to give someone he loves .... namely Nora. There were times I laughed out loud at the turmoil William had as he came to terms with his feelings. Also, when Duncan's wife goes into labor I found humor in Duncan and William's reactions to the birth. This is by far my favorite book of the series. I enjoyed Williams character in the previous books and he did not disappoint in this book.

One of my favorites in the series

Wee William has always been one of my favorites. I really liked this book. Very much!

I have to comment on the audio production. Brad Wills is fantastic! There was one section that the narrator "did over" but his first attempt was left in. We heard both the original and the correction. Unfortunately, minor things like this appear in the whole series.

A pet peeve of mine: "He hung himself" should be "He hanged himself." Editors should pick that up.

Suzan Tisdale does it again!

I have been a longtime fan of this book series, and have read and re-read them until I could quote most of them from memory. However, reading was nothing compared to the excellent narration of this story. I now play the audible book while reading to listen to the narrator bringing my favorite characters to life.

God's teeth! Loved it, set in Scotland, 1345

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would, indeed! It is wonderfully written and Brad Wills, narrator couldn't have expressed the emotion and pace of the story more perfectly.

Any additional comments?

God’s teeth! I loved this book-- about a giant of a warrior with the kindest of hearts and a poorly treated and beaten woman who made some wrong choices. They join destinies where family is the most precious of commodities.

As mammoth as Wee William is, this story is many-paged and hours of pure listening pleasure. Suzan Tisdale immediately drops us into action – Wee William and his almost equally fierce men are looking for treasure. It looked like they were going to kill for it!

The scene unfolds with events softening the listeners/readers heart. These men weren’t looking for treasure out of greed, but out of love to one mishandled wee lass who was newly married to their clan’s laird. My heart furthered softened in how he treats the woman he finds tied, yes tied to Horace Crawford. Wee William, that very evening fell in love, not knowing what love felt like, yet knowing he had to convince this woman to stay with him.
This first scene sets the mood for the remainder of the story. The author, with great detail develops each scene building on the one previous. Horace Crawford was the bad-ass wife beater who Nora tried to escape many a time. His two other brothers lived with them, so she had little chance to escape. Each time she had, she would be found and beaten.

When Horace kept trying to defend himself verbally after Nora had been cut from his ankle, I loved what Wee William said, in the wonderfully gruff and common language of this giant, as spoken by the talented Brad Wills.

“Ye utter another word, you cur, I’ll rip your tongue out and feed it to you through your ass!”

As you can well imagine, it made me laugh! Very descriptive, indeed!

In the first scene Wee William asks Nora if she wants to be a widow. Beaten, one eye closed and swollen, this is something she had prayed for, and thought it a unique way for God to answer her prayers. She nods. Wee William sent his men out to get rid of the three brothers. He sent them without a stitch of clothing, just shoes in the middle of winter. Laird Agnus told his warriors not to kill, so instead of following William’s orders, they left the three brothers to die, miles from the hut.

The rub is, if Horace is alive, she is still married and can’t marry William (which William discovers he wants). But Nora thinks she’s a widow, so lives her life as if she is free. Again, it is extremely funny how Wee William engineers the events to his favor.

Brad Wills never disappoints me when he narrates. His voice was gruff, deep and ‘huge’ for Wee William, which of course, suited him perfectly. I adored the voice he had for Nora’s little six-year-old sister. The character was as cute as a button, sensitive and truly lovable. When Brad Wills pitched his voice 2 octaves above Wee William, it always made me smile. Bravo, Brad! What a great voice range!

This story is about pay-back to those who have done evil and promises are not kept, cherishing family and protecting them even if resources and capabilities are limited. It’s about honor, never giving in to a promise you have made. It’s about camaraderie among men and friendship among women. Readers and listeners, I highly recommend this series. It will tickle your funny bone, melt your heart, curl your toes and make your heart race.

I received this audiobook as a win on a blog and I am so happy I did! Thank you Suzan Tisdale for the great tale and to Brad Willis who narrated it so marvelously!

Wonderful Book

I was hesitant at first with the narrator being a man but I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The narrator did a great job reading and expressing each characters voice. The author did a great job with the story as well it was well rounded and all of the characters thoroughly detailed. I had not read the 2 prior books to this one but it didn't matter the author did a great job including backstory without it becoming boring.

Love the book but the audio...

Brad Wills hands down is one of the best 'nade narrators around ! Suzan Tisdale writes a great page turner. I thoroughly enjoyed Wee William and Nora's story . I wish there had been a little bit more about Bree and Nial. But the fact that this is the only book around this clan and their allies that is not done in whispersynch drives me crazy !
