Publisher's Summary

Only one man could set her heart ablaze....

Lady Averill Mortagne learned to control her fierce temper as a young girl. But if her father insists on parading her before one more English lord who looks askance at her flame-colored hair, she'll simply scream! Her only respite is the time she spends with Kade Stewart, the wounded Scot her brother brought home from the Crusades. Who could have imagined a Highland warrior would be the only gentleman around?

Lady Averill helped save his life, and for that Kade is truly grateful. She is also almost unbearably beautiful, but he could never subject such a sweet and gentle lady to the rough life of a Stewart laird's bride... or could he? When she braves an unexpected danger by his side, Averill will prove to Kade that her heart is as fiery as her hair ...and that submitting to their scorching passion would be heaven indeed.

Unexpected and Enjoyable...

Marianna Palka has a wonderful accent, easy to understand and just enough Scott to make this story's period nature enjoyable. I wondered, early on, how the heroine could be considered a "Hellion", and by today's standards, I still hold true to this statement. But, if you listen closely, she's her own kind of assertive, which, in her time, could make her get a reputation as a "Hellion". A girl with a birthmark on her cheek and fire red hair, English Lady Avril is a healer with a quiet heart and a stutter around strangers. What no one realizes is that cold water baths and a determined mother is what made her so. At her heart, if Lady Avril is wronged and then filled with too much whiskey (her father's cure for stuttering,) then the assertive, happy, spunky natured chit that is Lady Avril comes out to play. Thanks to this, Cade, a Scottish warrior friend of Avril's brother, Will, agrees to take Avril on as wife. Unfortunately, both Avril and Cade have no idea of all of the trials awaiting them in their effort to right Cade's castle home in Scotland. It will take all of Avril's training and Cade's loving fierceness to overcome a drunken Laird father, drunken twin brothers, and a murderer trying to take them all down.

Not too bad

The reader sounded a little slurring most of the time. Maybe a little pep occasionally to add some spark to the story.
