Publisher's summary

A proper young lady should never attend a masque.... Aphrodite is no lady.

Betrothal to the callous Lord Blackhall painted a future devoid of love. Upon his death, Lady Caroline Wilmont is promised to the younger brother. Caroline refuses to allow her first taste of desire to be at the hands of a man who would rather have any woman but her. This, her last night of freedom, is to be a memory of lust that she can take with her throughout her loveless marriage. As Aphrodite, Caroline attends a masque determined to find a man to initiate her into the intimacies of erotic love.

Taran Robertson, viscount of Blackhall, makes no secret that he despises his obligation to marry the Sassenach heiress chosen for him by his father. As a last foray before his wedding, he attends a masque. However, the spirited vixen he meets and seduces has secrets...secrets that just may reveal he's to have an improper wife.

A good one!

I really have enjoyed this tale! I found the characters entertaining, the story line extremely intriguing. There is laughter, fears, excitement, intrigue and the full range of emotions. A most entertaining experience.

NARRATOR : Excellent. I heard the book and not the narrator which is how it should be.

CREDITWORTHY : yes... providing you aren't offended by some unnecessary crude terminology used for the many sexual interludes. I've listened more than once and still want to listen all at once.

HEAT FACTOR: if you don't mind the crudity then very high!!

I'll Have What She's Having!!

I loved this book so much!! Despite the fact that Caroline had me scratching my head through about half the book, I thoroughly enjoyed it. The narration was smooth with all the right vocal inflections, the Scottish accent was on point and totally brought Taran to vivid life. I'd love to listen to more books narrated by Marian Hussey.

The story itself was very well written, and seemed like it could very easily be made into a movie. I'd definitely watch it! The steamy bits were also well done and flowed well with the rest of the story. I didn't feel like things moved to quickly, and never once did I feel like I had missed something whenever Taran and Caroline hooked up.

Overall, an excellent book. I look forward to reading more works by this author.

So properly improper!

This book was a great listen, I was pleasantly surprised! I read some of the other reviews and was a bit worried that I wouldn't like the book very much, but I really liked it! I only wish it were longer. I think life in Scotland needed to be filled out more, but over all it was a really pleasant read.

I TOTALLY ENJOYED THIS BOOK

This book really surprised me. I passed over it a few times because I had not heard of the author before. Then I decided to give it a try...if you don't mind plenty of "Graphic Sex Scenes" (and I don't mind at all..I love steam with my romance stories) then this book will be a good pick. The story line was totally different and the narrator was very good. I will definitely be looking for more from this author....Remember...very steamy!! :)

Erotic content, but an excellent story.

This story is a well written historical romance, but there are several erotic scenes throughout the story. I loved the story line and the characters, but wow is it steamy and extremely detailed. Narrator Marian Hussey is fantastic. She made me believe in each character with her amazing performance of voices. I do recommend this book. I just want to share that it is quite steamy, deliciously so.

Great time period

Would you listen to The Highlander's Improper Wife again? Why?

I would definitely listen to it more than once, the narrator has an amazing voice

What does Marian Hussey bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Absolutely loved her voice and accent

Any additional comments?

You Went There!

Narration - Marian Hussey - Really Good! British Accent with a touch of Scottish Highlander? How can you go wrong with that!

I was SO loving this book, and then...it had to go there.
You know what I'm talking about
The murder plot.
Seriously?

Why is it that everyone seems to think a romance novel has to have a murder attempt on one of the MC's?
Do you really have to risk your life to prove your love?
*sighs*

Other than that? I was eating this baby up! Thankfully the Scooby Doo danger is only a small part near the end because each and every morsel up and to that point was delicious!

Good read

Good story but could have been longer. Wrapped things up quickly. Would like to have explored more of their journey together.

Disappointing Story, Good Narrator

I was bored less than half way through but finished out the story due to the sexy highland accent of the husband and the hope that the story would get better. Alas, the sexy highlander could not carry the story on his own. Yawn.
