Story
The Douglas sisters, beauties all, are valuable pawns in their family's bitter struggle to control the Scottish Crown. But when powerful enemies threaten, each Douglas lass will find she must face them alone. Captured by a Laird Haunted by his father's violent death, David Hume, the new laird of Wedderburn, sets out to make his name so feared that no one will dare harm his family again. The treacherous ally who played on his father's weakness is dead and beyond David's vengeance, but his castle and young widow are ripe for the taking. The moment David lays eyes on the dark-haired beauty defending her wee daughters, however, he knows this frail-looking lass is the one person who could bring him to his knees. Wed at thirteen to a man who tried daily to break her spirit, Lady Alison Douglas is looking forward to a long widowhood. But when the fearsome warrior known as the Beast of Wedderburn storms her gates, she finds herself, once again, forced to wed a stranger. Alison is only a pawn to serve his vengeance, so why does this dark warrior arouse such fiery passion and an unwelcome longing in her heart? With death and danger looming, these two wounded souls must learn to trust each other; for only love can save them.

Annoying romance
Is there anything you would change about this book?
I didn't like either of the main characters. The story wasn't that interesting either. Hope the rest of the series is better.

Neurotic Romance.
I have enjoyed Margaret Mallory in the past, but this was a tiresome neurotic romance with both parties vasilating between steamy love-making and jealous temper tantrums. Only thing good about it was Derek Perkins' narration. Waste of a good narrator.

Stong Heroine.
Got this book on a recent sale so I couldn't pass it up.
This one is definitely not the usual damsel in distress historical romance. The heroine, Catherine, is a strong and capable woman and William is a man who has many insecurities. Both of them have troubled pasts that make for a rocky relationship.
The story is interesting, well paced and the characters are intriguing. Although the story started out really good it slowly declined a bit about 3/4 into the book because I found Williams trust issues frustrating There were times I actually wanted to slap William! I know they both had a lot of issues to deal with but his insecurities seemed a bit over the top. Despite this the book is still worth listening to because it does redeem itself as many issues get resolved.
Since this book was a good foundation I will be listening to the others in this series. Also, the narrator is very good and I'm glad he is also narrating the next in the series.

Interesting, Unusual Story With A Strong Heroine
I enjoyed Catherine's character, a strong woman. She went through a lot at a young age, but she was good at her craft as a woman. On the other hand William was a strong fearless man when it came to battle, but in his personal life, he was very insecure. I know people who are like this and it can start from their childhood on. There are a couple of reasons William is this way and I think you will enjoy the story as you find out more..

strangers in the night
I love this series. This is the second time reading this series. I love medieval romance and this is a wonderful story of how two people met when they were young and were put together as adults many years after. Their lives were much changed and as the story unravels we find that through the years the two often thought about that night so long ago and that it had helped them get through dark times. Great story

Really liked this story. I laughed a lot and in a few places felt it was intense enough for me to hold my breath (while walking) to see what will happen next. I cannot wait to read her next book.
