About this audiobook

Though she has yet to be courted by any man, spirited Gillyanne Murray decides the time has come to visit the dower lands gifted to her by her father's kinsmen. She arrives to find the small keep surrounded by three lairds, each one vying for her hand . . . and property. Though resolved to refuse them all, the threat of battle on her threshold forces her to boldly choose a suitor: Sir Connor MacEnroy, a handsome, daring knight of few words. As his wife, Gillyanne is stunned by his terse, cold distance-and her own yearning to feel passion in his arms. Now, bringing her healing touch to a land and a keep ravaged by treachery and secret enemies, she dares to reach out for the one thing she fears she may forever be denied-her husband's closely guarded heart.

    First time I’ve listened to a Hannah Howell book. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It had laughter, love and action. Now I will have to begin with the first book. The narrator was excellent.

    I read this for a second time and it is still a very enjoyable historical romance with lots of action that moved right along and included some humor. I especially liked the heroines reasonable and assertive behavior. When Gillyanne visits her keep she finds three neighboring lairds including Sir Connor wanting to marry her.

    Hannah Howell has it all: a wicked sense of humor (which made me laugh until tears came). a knack for creating characters that have great depth, and an ability to craft all the components of a great love story. Watching Gillyanne slowly warm the heart of her Scottish Laird was delightful as well as truly satisfying. Highland Bride is a keeper.

    The book seemed like it would be lots of fun, when I bought it. In actuality, though, it was a big disappointment. The supposed romance between Gilly and Connor left me cold. There individual characters weren't believable, their chemistry together wasn't believable, and the plot itself was weak.

    Hanna Howell makes the Highlands come alive through her wonderfully descriptive historical novels. Diminutive Gillyanne Murray is forced to choose between the possible deaths of her clansmen or becoming the Highland Bride of Sir Connor MacEnroy. She chooses to wed and in the process grows to love Connor and his clan. However, the marriage has created a dilemma since Gillyanne has vowed that her marriage be based on love as have been those of the rest of her family. From the beginning, she is forced to put her special talents in the area of strategy and reading people to work in her quest for love. Ms. Howell has written a novel of romance, adventure, mystery and humor and great characterization. I did not want to put this book down.
