WOW, It is action, romance, chivalry, & funny

What made the experience of listening to The Honor of a Highlander: A Novella the most enjoyable?

I normally do not listen to Female Narrators, but this lady Melissa Carey did an awesome job. I just sat and totally enjoyed this book. It was not monotone and she did well with the story. I will listen to this lady again, and read/listen to this Authors books.

It is action, romance, chivalry, funny, and lots more. I loved it from beginning to end. The characters are spot on.

Melissa Carey makes it so much more interesting when she starts talking for the men. I was shocked, thinking I wouldn't like it but she did great.

Fantastic Bold Highland Adventure

Would you listen to The Honor of a Highlander: A Novella again? Why?

I would listen to The Honor of a Highlander over again. The story grabs attention from the first and holds throughout . There is laughter, happiness, sadness, romance, etc.. All the ingredients for a complete romance. This author takes the reader away and allows them to seemingly travel to the past and experience a different life!

Who was your favorite character and why?

I like all the characters. They all complete the story.

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

I also read the print version and enjoyed it as well. However the narration is great and adds to the excitement within the story.

Any additional comments?

I highly recommend April Holthaus books, either in print, kindle, or audio.

A whole lot of story in a rather short book!

April Holthaus has written an exciting saga filled with hunky highlanders, spunky lassies, castles, kisses, treachery and honor. It is a epic story in a novella size book. The characters are written with strong personalities and emotions. If you are a fan of Scottish Historical Romances of the medieval kind then you will not be disappointed. This book will grab your attention in the beginning and hold it until the end.

NARRATOR: Melissa Carey did a excellent job. Her male, female, young, and old voices are spot on. I would happily listen to her again.

CREDITWORTHY? I think it cost less than a Credit but either way it's a yes!

HEAT FACTOR: Chemistry yes, heat not so much. No sex except a very brief scene at the end.

A great highland story, with a tall, sexy highlander that will make you wish he could pop off the page and into your lap. This story has everything, conspiracy, intrigue, great historical reference and a sweet, tender love story, that melts your heart. Author April Holthaus has written an exceptional story. This is an absolute must read. I highly recommend this book and can't wait to read more stories from this author. I am definitely a fan of this author's captivating stories.

I know I'm going to finish this..

Any additional comments?

But I'll finish it by just reading the book. This narrator is just terrible. Sometimes she lowers her voice when the hero speaks and sometime she doesn't. All the other men sound quite girly. She has no emotion. All she does is read the book, almost like a robot. She would never be a favorite of mine. I've listened to 13 hour books and with the right narrator they've been exciting. When I can't listen to a 4+ hour book that's really sad.

I would also like to say that the description tells us what the book is about or we can zip over to Amazon and look at reviews. This is AUDIBLE! What we need to review is the narrator. Does he or she suck? Why? Is he or she too nasal-y, too sweet for the kind of book he or she is reading, to gruff, too bland, too robotic, too childish sounding, lacks emotion. Is he or she doing nothing but reading the book? Not changing his or her voice for the male and female voices? Is the narrator sounding the same whether she or he is reading a whisper spoken?
Tell us about the NARRATOR.

Fantastic story of Love!!!

Wow! This audio book was fantastic! Full of suspense, intrigue and love! The detail on how April described the surroundings felt as if I was part of the storyline. Her descriptive words were perfect. I cannot wait to listen to her next audiobook. Don’t hesitate and download this book! You will not be disappointed!

Nice and short

This was good for a quick brainless listen. It was action packed and sweet and it didn’t take a lot of thought, it was enjoyable to listen to while driving.

great book

The only issue I had with this book was the narration was off from the kindle book. The story was great and I loved the writing.
