There can be no light without darkness, no hope without despair, no love without heartache

Some scars can't be seen

When the handsome Frederick Mackintosh offers to marry Aggie McLaren, she is certain 'tis greed or insanity that motivates him. Besides land and a chance at a chiefdom, she believes she has nothing to offer. She soon learns nothing could be further from the truth. Hope she thought long lost blooms with her husband's kindness, his honor, and his fierce determination to make their marriage and their clan a success.

Sometimes perfection is imperfect

Aggie McLaren is not Frederick Mackintosh's image of the perfect wife. She isn't well read, vivacious, or voluptuous. Wee, timid, and unable to speak, it is a glimpse of her smile and the chance to be chief of his own clan that propels him to offer for her hand. Frederick will do whatever he must in order to see her smile again and to help her find her voice.

One of Suzan's Best!

This is a difficult story. Performance is awesome. Tisdale obviously understands women who have been abused. However, sometimes it is painful to hear. And somewhat relentless. But isn't that the way of it. Can only listen for short periods of time. It's almost too much. Well done but hard.

Difficult but excellently written

while still a well written w/ a good storyline, I didn't care for it as much as the last book. At 17 hours it felt drawn out, there was more that I felt that the story have been drawn to a close. The narrator is fantastic though.

Not As Good As The Previous Book

You can not go wrong with this one.
Author & Narrator equals almost perfection(as no one can be perfect).
Captivating!
**Bravo** Miss Tisdale & Mr Wills!

Frederick & Aggie's story will have you want to drop in it, to fight with them, to make everything all right. Really like how all of her characters feel alive and you get pulled into their story.

The characters are well defined and the bad are really bad that you'll want them dead, ASAP. The good guys are really good, you'll root for them. Nice twists at the end.

Brad Wills plays his voice to excellence. You really know who is who from all of the men to all of the women and kids. (makes me wonder if he can do animals as well. :D )

Get it you'll LOVE It!

I loved the book, but would probably have enjoyed it much more if the reader had not made all the children in sound so much alike.

Suzan Tisdale Fan

If it wasn’t for Brad Wills, I would not been able to finish this book. Suzan Tisdale is a good author but just about every one of her books follow the same formula. Severely abused, beaten, low self esteemed women saved by enormous Scotsmen of high integrity and honor. I enjoyed McKenna’s honor because it was different and fast paced. It was more about an epic tale of heroism rather than romance. However, Rowan’s Lady and this book went back to the same old pattern. I would like to see Suzan Tisdale break away from this comfortable outline and create unique storylines.

Entertaining Enough

Aggie's father, who was a mean and vulgar man, set out to find her a husband. He was not going to live long because he had a lung disease. Her father was Chief of the clan and he did not think she could fill that duty. Aggie had been beaten by him many times. She had learned to keep her mouth shut and not speak or she would get another thrashing. Frederick had gone to the Kirk to ask God to give him a wife. He had watched Rowan with his wife and decided that is what he needed. When Aggie and her father arrived at Rowan's Keep, Frederick saw her father hit her and treat her mean. His heartstrings pulled at the sight of the lass.
This book came alive with the great talent of Brad Wills as narrator and the great storytelling of Suzan Tisdale. It will pull every emotion out of you. Laughter, anger, tears and you will tense with muscles pulled tight.

Wonderful!

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

Brad's narration was outstanding. Pure raw emotion, fun flirtatious banter, he brings all of that to the story and breathes life into each character.

Frederick's Queen
By Suzan Tisdale

You will absolutely fall in love with Frederick Mackintosh. A tall, handsome, brawny highlander has the chance to be chiefdom of his own clan, if he marries Aggie McLaren. Aggie isn't Frederick's ideal woman. She is in fact the exact opposite of Frederick's voluptuous dream for a wife, but Frederick see's something in Aggie the moment he first glimpse her smile. Maggie lives in constant fear of more physical abuse from her father, Murdoch McLaren. He has forbidden Aggie to speak because he can't stand the sound of her voice, but there is so much more to Aggie. With her body scarred from years of beatings and whips taken to her, and a scar on her face, Aggie believes she isn't worthy of love. Why shouldn't she believe this, when her own father constantly belittles her and expresses through verbal and emotional abuse, how unworthy he finds her. Frederick and Aggie are married and Frederick immediately notices how Aggie's entire clan treat her. Frederick must be patient with Aggie because she is terrified of men. Aggie finally confides in Frederick that she was raped at the young age of thirteen. That statement, along with the physical and emotional abuse by her father, gives Frederick insight, wisdom, patience and compassion for his wee wife. This is such a powerful story of love, acceptance and one woman's journey to find her voice, her courage and her confidence to live life and accept love. Author Suzan Tisdale touches on heart wrenching topics with grace and sensitivity, in this beautifully written romantic story. Every once in a while, I find a book that doesn't just take me on a journey, but touches my heart and soul. This is such a book.
Every woman who has ever been victim to the cruelties of a man, deserves a Frederick Mackintosh to come along, accept them, love them and heal the brokenness inside. I laughed, I cried and then I started the book all over again. It's that amazing.
An absolute breath taking story and a definite must read.

An exciting, powerful and beautiful story.
