Publisher's Summary

Set in treacherous sixteenth-century Scotland, the first volume of Amanda Scott’s Border Trilogy tells the unforgettable story of a woman sworn to defy the knight she is forced to wed - only to discover a love she’ll do anything to claim.

As Mary, Queen of Scots, languishes in the Tower of London as a prisoner of her cousin, Queen Elizabeth, war tears Scotland apart. To save her beloved homeland, a proud Highland beauty named Mary Kate MacPherson must wage her own battle when she’s forced into wedlock with a knight, Sir Adam Douglas, from the barbaric borderland of Tornary.

Even as she succumbs to her seductive husband’s sensual demands, Mary Kate vows never to give him her heart. She will belong to no man. But Adam burns with something deeper than desire. Sworn to carry out a long-awaited revenge, he won’t rest until he has vanquished his enemies. Accused of treason, the last thing he expects is to lose his heart to the woman he’s determined to tame but never to love: His own wife.

Exhausting.

This book was exhausting and frustrating to listen to. Mary Kate is forced into a marriage she doesn’t want, she is mistreated, abused and gaslighted throughout the book. This couple are a bickering and childish mess. Mary Kate cannot seem to make an intelligent decision that makes any sense throughout the book. It was very predictable - anything she shouldn’t be doing, she ends up doing. Uuuuuuhg. So annoying.

The only saving grace to this audiobook is that the narrator is okay - not amazing, but passable.
