About this listen

Everyone wants handsome adventurer John Huxley to settle down - family, friends, London society. Everyone except John. He's evaded too many scheming title huntresses to trust in happily ever after. Now, a vow made to a dying friend has him locked in a land dispute with a stubborn Scot who offers one way out: Win the Highland Games. John likes a challenge, but this one's impossible. Still, with training from the Scot's stepdaughter, victory might be within reach. He only has to teach the fiery, foulmouthed, breeches-wearing lass how to land a lord. It seems "impossible" is just getting started.

Everyone calls her Mad Annie. True, her best friend is a ghost. And yes, her greatest talents involve cooking for giants and taunting ridiculously handsome Englishmen. But she's not mad - she's desperate. To save her friend, Annie must marry a lord. The trouble is no lord will look twice at a hoyden like her. This calls for "Lady Lessons", and she knows just the uptight Englishman to provide them.

When Annie's family is targeted by a dangerous enemy, John is tempted to stay, to fight, and to win the greatest prize of all: a fiery lass' tender, loyal heart.

Contains mature themes.

Fun Romance

I almost abandoned the book after the first five minutes thinking it was going to be full of stereo typical Irish banter, but I am glad I didn't. The story is very entertaining. Good mix of romance, sadness and hanky panky. Great narration.

FUN STORY

Fun story with strong characters. Lots of raw Highlanders with masculine personalities that keep the story ruggedly intriguing. Female character a little too rough for my liking but it still worked.

Awesome story

The book still didn’t say if she where mad. I mean I was disappointed that Finley wasn’t born, but the story was really cute.
