Highland Sword

Royal Highlander, Book 3

By: May McGoldrick

Narrated by: Raphael Corkhill, Marisa Calin

Scottish pride, persuasion, and passion - this is Highland romance at its breathtaking best.

From USA Today best-selling author May McGoldrick comes Highland Sword, the third audiobook in the Royal Highlander series.

A vow for vengeance

Fleeing to the Highlands after her father’s murder, fiery Morrigan Drummond has a score to settle with Sir Rupert Burney, the English spymaster responsible for his death. Trained to fight alongside the other rebels determined to break Britain’s hold on Scotland, she swears to avenge her father’s death - until a chance encounter with a barrister as proud and principled as she is presents her with a hard choice...and a bittersweet temptation.

A plea for passion

Aidan Grant has never encountered another woman like dangerous beauty Morrigan - and he has the bruises to prove it. Yet she could be the key to defending two innocent men, as well as striking a death blow to the reprehensible Burney. Convincing Morrigan to help him will take time, but Aidan is willing to wait if it means victory over corrupt government forces and freedom for his people...and Morrigan’s hand in marriage. Can two warriors committed to a cause stand down long enough to open their hearts to a love fierce enough to last...forever?

Wonderful historical series

The three very varied, but intertwined stories, tell the tales of three very strong and unusual women for their time and how, despite trials and tribulations in their lives, they gain the devotion of love of their respective men. Additionally, we learn about the political state of England and Scotland with its rivalries and intrigues, which were dirty, underhanded and often dangerous.
Ms McGoldrick is a competent writer with a great storytelling ability and a good eye for details and novel situations. She is surely a big supporter of women’s capabilities to succeed in life.

Dreadful narrator

Raphael Corkhill wasn't dreadful...he was ok. But Marisa Calin was terrible. Too bad they didn't stick with Saskia Maarlevelde. Made this last book tough to listen to and really hurt learning all the details of the finale. Might want to read this one on Kindle. Interesting story, however, poor narration can really be a story killer.
