About this listen

Magic is her birthright....

The daughter of one of the strongest magical lineages, Ninian Malcom Siddons is a powerful witch. Determined to use her magic only for good, she lives a simple, solitary life as a healer in her village, where she meets Drogo.

A man of science doesn't believe in anything he can't see....

Lord Drogo Ives believes only logic and science can explain the wonders of the universe and doesn't believe the local folklore about Malcolm witches and Ives men - until he meets Ninian. Despite the odds against them and their (many) differences, the bond between Drogo and Ninian grows stronger each moment they are together...until the chaos and danger surrounding them forces each to decide: their love...or their lives....

A son. No, a daughter.

A good read but rather too talky at times. Drogo and Ninian were the perfect opposites attack couple. The two meet by chance in the forest and are doomed to actions contrary to each one's set of rules. They spend a night of passion together and not surprisingly, Ninian becomes pregnant. They marry, with reluctance on Ninian,s part , because Drogo has vowed to marry any woman who carries his babe. Theirs is a rocky relationship because each is so strong in their own convictions and not willing to compromise. This is the first book in a series and it will be very interesting to read how things play out in the following books between the members of these two families, the Ives and the Malcolms.

A magical romance!

This is a very well written story, opposite attracts and at times complete each other. I love the leading female character with her special gifts. The supporting characters especially the brothers were very amusing. The narrator has was exceptional. He mad the story come to life.

Good story, but…

Didn’t love the narrator. Very little difference between voices, had to really pay attention to the character shift.

enjoyable listening

Wasn't so sure when I started but it grew on me. The narrator was good but I feel a woman narrator would have been better because it was about a woman. I'm not sure I'm going to the next though.
