Publisher's summary

USA Today best-selling author Gayle Callen creates an unforgettable story of mistaken identity and irresistible attraction in this first in a wonderfully engaging series set in the Scottish Highlands.

Shaken from sleep during the night and bundled off to the Highlands by a burly Scot, Riona is at first terrified then livid. Hugh McCallum insists they were promised to each other as children to ensure peace between their clans. The stubborn laird refuses to believe he's kidnapped the wrong Catriona Duff. Instead he embarks on a campaign of slow-burning seduction....

At first Hugh cares only what their marriage can do for his people. Now he's starting to crave Riona for her own sake, but her true identity jeopardizes his clan's contract. And unless she chooses to risk all to be his bride, he'll lose the only thing he prizes more than the lands he's fought so hard to save - the passionate marriage they could have together.

Dubious consent

I wanted to like this book. I recently discovered this author and have liked other novels by them but this one just didn’t hit. The male lead, Hugh, just felt too pushy for any of their “romantic” moments to feel truly romantic. I didn’t understand how Riona went from wanting to truly escape to wanting to kiss Hugh. Was it just because he is attractive? And if so, is that really such a powerful motivator to get over the fact that he abducted her? The fact that he abducted her and she can’t escape is itself problematic since it creates an unequal power dynamic between them that isn’t settled until after they’ve gotten together. How are we supposed to believe Riona chooses Hugh when she can’t even leave? It’s a shame really since there are good moments sprinkled about. I’d recommend skipping it. I wish I hadn’t used a credit on it.

The narrator was great though.

Totally enjoyable!

STORY: Laird grabs girl... trialsn tribulations, hearts, contracts, unrest.... all leading to a somewhat predictable HEA. Gotta love those highlands!!

NARRATOR: A great performance by Ruth Urquhart.

HEAT FACTOR: Lots of steam.... and a roiling boil.

Interesting story

Did not care for the narrator, Ruth. She read it all too fast and anxious. Liked the story line and the characters.
