The Highland Rogue

by Amy Jarecki Narrated by Dave Gillies

Overview

A courageous Highlander falls for a strong-willed lass on the treacherous high seas in this action-packed Scottish romance.

After a vicious attack on his ship, Sir Kennan Cameron washes ashore on a deserted Scottish island, nearly dead. But he soon finds he's not as alone as he thought. Kennan knows he can't stay on the island, but neither can he leave the brave and bonny lass who has nursed him back to health -- even if she is from a rival clan.

Abandoned by her family, Divana Campbell is both terrified and relieved when a rugged Highlander drags himself from the surf. Trusting Kennan is her only chance for survival -- and by the time they arrive at his castle, she can barely imagine life without him. But as the heir to a powerful chieftain, Kennan could never marry the likes of her.

Together, they'll brave tempests, pirates, betrayal, and ruin. But soon Kennan must decide what matters most: his thirst for vengeance or the woman who's won his heart.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

"A compellingly crafted, vividly evoked historical romance that is expertly threaded through with a surfeit of potent danger and powerful desire."—Booklist

"The slow burn romance between Kennan and Divana in The Highland Rogue was a spark that turned into a raging inferno with added dashes of danger, action, and intrigue that coalesced into a mighty good read. I would highly recommend this story!"—The Genre Book Minx

"This book sucked me in and held me captive from the exciting, heart-pounding opening to the last beautifully romantic scene in the epilogue."—Flipping Pages

"With passion, precision, and consummate skill, Jarecki has penned an adventurous romance that is greatly enhanced by an exquisite depiction of life in the early 18th-century Scottish Highlands. Beautifully done."—Library Journal on The Highland Renegade

"Jarecki further enhances her reputation for crafting stellar Scottish romances by giving readers a knockout love story, with an action-packed plot richly imbued with colorful period details and a perfectly matched hero and heroine whose sensual exploits are hot enough to warm the coldest of Scottish nights."—Booklist on The Highland Renegade

Divana Campbell and her family, all suffering from smallpox, were dumped on the tiny isle of Hyskeir off the Scottish coast. Surviving by her wits and a slingshot, Divana one day discovers Sir Kennan Cameron, who has washed ashore, is close to death, and is in need of her care. Kennan narrowly escaped an attack on his life by the pirate Jackson Vane, and he's puzzled and amused by feisty, fearless Divana, who nurses him back to health while he plots his revenge against Vane. Their escape from the island is not without peril, and the action soon shifts from a lonely prison to Kennan's highlands home to the treacherous pirating world of the Caribbean islands. Kennan is a swoon-worthy Scottish hero, brawny and protective of his people, while Divana proves she can more than hold her own with bravery and courage. VERDICT Highlanders, high seas, and brigands ahoy! There's never a dull moment in Jarecki's (The Highland Earl) swashbuckling adventure, which feels like a wonderful blend of Outlander and Pirates of the Caribbean.—Kathryn Howe, Saint John Free P.L., NB
