Publisher's summary

Wed by proxy to a baron old enough to be her grandfather, Lady Anne trudges up the gangway of a galleon that will deliver her into the arms of a tyrant. Crestfallen, she believes her disastrous life cannot get worse - until she awakes to the blasts of cannon fire. Facing certain death, Anne trembles in her stateroom while swords clash and the chilling screams of battle rage on the deck above. When a rugged Highlander kicks in her door, she prays for a swift end.

But Laird Calum MacLeod has a reason for plundering the ship - and it's not a stunning English lass. With no other choice, he takes Anne to his crumbling keep on the isle of Raasay and sends a letter of ransom to her husband. In time, Anne grows to understand MacLeod's plight and finds it increasingly difficult to resist Calum's unsettling charm - until the baron sends a reply agreeing to terms.

Ripped from passion that will be forever seared into their souls, will Anne and Calum risk everything for love?

breathtaking

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

absolutely. exceptional read, could not put it down.

What does Paul Woodson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I had actually read the book first, and I didn't get the same feel or overall understanding. Its more intense as an audio than just reading alone.

Good Story but...

I really enjoyed the story it was a very well laid out plot. Plenty of info without being overkill. However, the narrator killed it for me. I almost stopped by the second chapter. His Scottish ascent sounded like Dracula, I kept waiting for him to say blah blah blah. His poor performance was very distracting.

Predictable but, I enjoyed it!

No, this isn’t the best highlander series I’ve ever listened to, but it was an entertaining listen. It also isn’t a book I would likely ever lust to again. That being said,it was a satisfying Romance package listen.

Battles were to much.

This was my first book by this author, Amy Jarecki. While I found the writing very good I had a feeling that this story was written by a man. Page after page of battles made me jump sections of the book to get to the ‘romance.’

A captivating Scottish adventure!

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

I really enjoyed and loved this audio, it really reflects, Captured by the Pirate Laird, to another level!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Captured by the Pirate Laird?

I loved when Anne is held captive by Calum! Some scenes are filled with seduction and humor!

What does Paul Woodson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

This narrator has a beautiful voice, he was perfect for this audio! Very good choice!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I prefer listening to one or two chapters at a time!

Any additional comments?

This story was very well written, some scenes are filled with lots of emotions and the intrigue well developed. So as an audio, it was interesting to listen to! I really enjoyed this Scottish story and looking forward to Ms. Jarecki’s next audio in this series.
