If she was going to have to ride home over the next week or so with a man who drove her crazy, at least she could pick out her own horse.

Publisher’s Synopsis:
Lady Greer was a hellion from the moment she could walk. So, when the young woman is forbidden by her father, the Earl of Sutherland, to sail, she steals a boat and rows it out into the firth anyway. But her relaxing jaunt turns into so much more when a storm ravages the chill waters and the prospect of death is soon upon her.
The last thing Roderick MacCulloch, Laird of Gleann Mórinnse Castle, expects to find while out scouting his property is a soaked lass upon his shores. When she demands he take her back to her clan, he recognizes her as the mischievous lass who taunted him at a festival years before. Roderick realizes this might be his chance to have a bit of fun and give Lady Greer a taste of her own medicine.
But Roderick’s chance at revenge turns into a merry chase across the Highlands that leads them both to unexpected passion, perilous danger…and maybe even love.

Rellim’s Thoughts
The Highlander’s Hellion is another fun, sexy, sweet, & slightly suspenseful addition to the Sutherland Legacy series by Eliza Knight. Again, while each book stands on its own – characters and a few minor events from previous books are mentioned and it’s best to listen to these in order.
I love the way Knight approaches the Grumpy/Sunshine trope with Roderick having a great deal weighing him down but not being cruel/mean to anyone. Greer is a wonderful… well… hellion. While some of her chaos is intentional much is just due to an adventurous spirit. Roderick is equally dismayed and enamored by her behavior. Greer delights in making him smile. They are an adorable couple.
Travels require them to get to know each other better than they did during previous superficial meetings. While there is a misunderstanding that happens, it’s resolved fairly quickly and I continue to appreciate that most of the angst is light and from external forces/situations.
Looking forward to book 4, The Highlander’s Secret Vow.
Narration:
Antony Ferguson continues to be a gem to listen to and a great fit with Knight’s writing. I enjoy his accents and emotions as well as his ability to highlight Knight’s wonderful sense of humor.
Content Warning (may contain spoilers): Suicide. Listeners may want to be aware that the book opens with the immediate aftermath (Roderick finding his sister’s body) & family dealing with it are mentioned, but not belabored.
