About this listen

Ada Moncriefe cannot stand by while her betrothed cruelly executes prisoners. She makes a daring plan to free the Scots warriors in the dungeon, only asking that the brave leader take her with him when they escape. Things go horribly wrong, and Ada pays a dear price for her sacrifice. Broken and scarred afterward, she lives a ghost-like existence, having no idea what her future holds.

Jamie MacKenna is haunted by the fact that he was prevented from returning to save his men-at-arms and the lass who'd freed them. With greater fervor, he thrusts himself into the war for Scottish freedom alongside the valiant warrior, William Wallace. More than a year later, he stumbles upon Ada Moncriefe in the Scottish Highlands. His guilt induces him to offer her marriage, and despite the tormenting passion that rages between them, he vows never to love her.

Soon, though, Ada begins to yearn for something more with her hardened warrior husband.

As the sun sets on William Wallace's fight for Scottish independence, Ada and Jamie must both learn to forgive and to open themselves to love.

Contains mature themes.

Great Story and Narrator

Finally a narrator that can tell a good story without having to cringe at the women’s voices.

Beautiful Story.

I loved it. Both main characters going through so much pain only to find each other again later. Both needing to learn about trust and forgiveness. There were multiple times during the story that made me teary eyed.

The narrator is very talented!

Not enough action for me

The story takes too long for things to come together for me. Action at the beginning then it moves along very slowly in my opinion. Not a bad story, just not enough action!
