Editorial Reviews

JUNE 2019 - AudioFile

Saskia Maarleveld and Raphael Corkhill narrate the first in a new historical romance series. Wanted by both Scottish rebels and the British government for the information she may possibly know, Isabella Drummond hides deep within the Highlands of her homeland. When her path crosses with that of ship captain Cinaed Mackintosh, she finds the unexpected—an ally and love. Corkhill’s portrayal of Sir Walter Scott, who introduces the story and each chapter within, firmly places the listener in the Scottish Highlands. Maarleveld masters the varying voices, regardless of gender or birthplace. Her presentation captures each character’s personality, helping listeners feel as if they’re witnessing the story. A lovely listen for those who enjoy historical romance. A.L.S.M. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine
