Highland Raider

The King's Outlaws, Book 2

By: Amy Jarecki

Narrated by: Dave Gillies

When Angus Og MacDonald, Lord of Islay, agrees to harbor Robert the Bruce from the clutches of King Edward, he becomes an outlaw of the English crown. They sail to Ireland, seeking support from kin, but are forced to flee for their lives. As Angus escapes, it is not a man he finds hidden in his birlinn. A wee wisp of a lass attacks like a screaming banshee with a battle axe in her hands. Then, the wrath of God erupts in a violent storm, smashing the boat to smithereens. Now, Angus fights for survival, hell-bent on saving them both.

Anya O’Cahan awakes half-drowned in a tiny chapel on a deserted isle with none other than Fairhair, the man with the devil’s heart, the vile brother of the beast who killed her Da. Terrified out of her wits, she does everything in her power to escape the Highlander’s clutches. But Anya’s attempts are thwarted by the cunning, far too beautiful lord. Worse, Angus takes her before the King of Scots who seizes her as a political prisoner and thrusts her into the care of none other than Fairhair himself. Will this union of two hated rivals plagued by unwanted and uncanny attraction erupt in passion or war?

Excellent & Exciting

Another fantastic story by Amy Jarecki. It is a wonderful story from beginning to end. I love how this author weaves historical events and/or people into her stories. I feel as if I am traveling back in time and have a first row seat with this author’s story. Dave Gillies brings to life every character, rich with emotion. So good. A must have.

Not bad.

Not bad. But nothing to get excited about either... I had a hard time staying focused on the story at times but it was just ok.
