Beauty and the Highland Beast

Highland Fairytale Series, Book 1

By: Lecia Cornwall

Narrated by: Ruth Urquhart

Powerful and dangerous Highlander Dair Sinclair was once the favored son of his clan, the Sinclairs of Carraig Brigh. With Dair at the helm, Sinclair ships circled the globe bringing home incredible fortune - until one deadly mission when Dair is captured, tortured, and unable to save his young cousin. He returns home breaking under the weight of his guilt and becomes known as the Madman of Carraig Brigh.

When a pagan healer predicts that only a virgin bride can heal his son's body and mind, Dair's father sets off to find the perfect wife for his son. At the castle of the fearsome McLeods, he meets lovely and kind Fia MacLeod.

Although Dair does his best to frighten Fia, she sees the man underneath the damage and uses her charm and special gifts to heal his mind and heart. Will Dair let Fia love him, or is he cursed with madness forever?

A great read all around.

I enjoyed the book very much. The narrator spoke quite well and even used some Gaelic words with a Scottish brogue. I recommend this novel whole heartily.

Great story!

This was a wonderful story. I always enjoy the reader Ruth Urquhart. She brings life to every book!

so so good

This was better than expected. I loved the narrator. story was well built. Their romance was touching and I felt they were so suitable together.

Very good

Sweet story and very interesting. I wanted more which was the only thing I disliked about it.

Some endings are too short and sweet, like the author met the minimum page requirements. Not this one.

Interesting twists till the last word. Great story of courage and determination. My first 5 star rating.
