Explanation To Books Beyond the Highland Mist (Highlander #1)
He would sell his warrior soul to possess her...An alluring laird...
He was known throughout the kingdom as Hawk, legendary predator of the battlefield and the boudoir. No woman could refuse his touch, but no woman ever stirred his heart—until a vengeful fairy tumbled Adrienne de Simone out of modern-day Seattle and into medieval Scotland. Captive in a century not her own, entirely too bold, too outspoken, she was an irresistible challenge to the sixteenth-century rogue. Coerced into a marriage with Hawk, Adrienne vowed to keep him at arm's length—but his sweet seduction played havoc with her resolve.
A prisoner in time...
She had a perfect "no" on her perfect lips for the notorious laird, but Hawk swore she would whisper his name with desire, begging for the passion he longed to ignite within her. Not even the barriers of time and space would keep him from winning her love. Despite her uncertainty about following the promptings of her own passionate heart, Adrienne's reservations were no match for Hawk's determination to keep her by his side...

3.5/5 starsThanks Rhonda for this book! XoHawk is the perfect man, the epitome of male beauty. Legions of females fight for their one chance to be with the legendary Hawk, but Adrienne de Simone isnt one of them. It isnt the fact that she comes from the twentieth century. Or the fact that she doesnt notice Hawks stunning good looks. Its the fact that Adrienne just hates beautiful men.And doesnt that just suck for Hawk?I just love it when the shameless manwhore finally falls for someone whoDNF - this book aggravated the he!! out of me.
FOUR HIGHLAND STARS.It was about time for me to read this new-to-me author. I wanted epic love, a toe curling romance, and a love that would sweep me off my feet and this book delivered. Moning provided me with the perfect escape and I couldn't have wished for more. An utterly dreamy start to a series that I know I'm going to fall in love with. ... Book two here I come. *Buddy read with the bezzie ...*
Beyond The Highland Mist by Karen Marie Moning had its up and its downs. Im a sucker for anything relating to men in kilts in anyway - toss in a fiery lass, a stubborn yet gorgeous Scotsman, his clan and his pride, Scotland itself...Im going to read it. I actually loved Hawk. It was Adrienne that annoyed me. I suppose I could relate to where she was coming from but at the same time it took almost the entire book to break her. The story went round and round and the book could have been half the
What did I think? I thought thank god I read the Fever series before this or I would have never picked it up and would have mocked anyone who recommended it to me. There isn't much to say about this book except the fact that this is not the Karen Marie Moning I am used to. Yet, some things have actually acquired a certain clarity; she is certainly a veteran in writing hot steamy sex scenes and the Highlander series has been, for all intents and purposes, her training camp, leading to the Fever
2.5 StarsI adore the Fever series, so I thought I'd have success with Beyond the Highland Mist. No so much. I adored Hawk, but for a lot of the story I was completely frustrated with Adrienne. So illogically stubborn and prejudice against "beautiful men". I know Adrienne was burned by a "beautiful man", but how can someone be so shortsighted to judge every good looking male for the sins of one?! I think the story would've benefited by some editing down, as well. As for the narration, Phil
What a difference an audiobook makes... And especially one with a fantastic narrator!!! Let's just say that from my original 2 star rating I jumped to 4 stars in my reread with audiobook. Phil Gigante makes everything interesting, the first half was absolutely amazing and I would've given it 5 stars if the main woman wasn't such a moron, but oh well it can't be perfect. Anyway, all I have to say for the readers: Grab the audiobooks of this series!!! You won't regret it! First review:This is
