When Sir Donald MacDonald, Baronet of Sleat, meets trews-wearing, musket-wielding, redheaded Mary of Castleton, he's completely flummoxed. Such a woman would never fit in to his aristocratic way of life. And Mary wants nothing to do with her father's wishes for her betrothal. Indeed, the two agree on one thing: They are completely, utterly and inarguably incompatible.
But when Mary is abducted from Dunscaith Castle and spirited away in Sir Donald's sea galley, the baronet has no choice but to mount a rescue. When his plans are thwarted at every turn, Donald and Mary are thrown in a tumultuous a race for their very lives. Though destiny brings them together, Don must face the truth smoldering in the recesses of his heart. Can he cast aside his ideals and declare his love for the saucy Highland lass?

Ms. Jarecki's stories are on auto-buy for me, she is weaving her magic spell on readers with each one.
Sir Donald MacDonald is in for a surprise when he meets Mary of Castleton and he thinks he can just forget about her. The feisty maiden gets under his skin and in his heart, although their journey to HEA is dangerous and kept me in listening mode to hear what will happen next.

If you’ve listened to books by Amy Jarecki before, how does this one compare?
I've listened to the first book of this series, and I enjoyed that story and characters more, but this one isn't horrible. I appreciate Amy Jarecki's writing and ability to use the time period as an important component of her books rather than just an adjunct to the story, and she does that again here. However, the female protagonist wasn't always consistent with her characterization, which made her less appealing at times, and the story seemed pretty standard with some cliches here and there. Also, there were some plot points introduced that I would have liked to see developed more, and this could have enriched the story and characters a bit more. This book was like an oatmeal raisin cookie: Not as good as chocolate chip, but it's still worth a bite.What does Joel Froomkin bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I have come to enjoy Joel Froomkin as a narrator for Highland novels. His voices aren't annoying, his interpretation of the material works, and his Scottish brogue is an added bonus.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Nope.Any additional comments?
Worth a credit if you really like Highland romances, and worth a listen if you like Amy Jarecki. If you're not interested in the series as a whole, go for the first book of this series over this one.Not as Good as the First but Still Decent

The narration by Joel Froomkin was well done, even with all the female voices he had to do. He brought the characters to life and added to my enjoyment of this story.
A strong woman caught in between two sides.
