Ian

MadMan MacKeefe Series Book 3

By: Elizabeth Rose

Narrated by: Tim Campbell

Ian MacKeefe is haunted by the demons in his head, taunting him of his tarnished past. And then in the fire on All Hallow's Eve, he sees the face of Tearlach MacTavish, the man he'd killed and buried three years ago. Not a settling thought since this is the night when the veil is pushed aside and the dead are said to be able to come back to life.

Kyla has grown up with Ian, as her brother is his best friend. And while Ian thinks of her as naught more than a wee sister, she has fallen in love with him through the years, and plans on proving to him she is much more than he thinks.

But love is the last thing on Ian's mind, especially when their clan chieftain makes an alliance with their enemies, betrothing Kyla to the MacTavishes - and Ian is faced with more demons once again.

Can Ian overcome his past before it's too late for him to notice that the lassie he's considered naught more than a wee sister, Kyla, is a strong, beautiful woman who he is about to lose forever?

Exciting

Ian’s book would make a great Halloween read. Aiden’s sister Kyla has always loved Ian, who was found as an infant and raised in the household with Aiden and Kyla. Ian still treats her as a kid sister, or he did at the beginning of the story. Kyla is betrothed to a MacTavish as part of an alliance for peace and protection. Ian knows this clan, as he secretly lived with them for a year, and does not trust them. He goes with Kyla to the MacTavish Castle as protection and to try to stop the betrothal. Once inside the castle, Ian finds that he is right not to trust them. How can Kyla be betrothed to a man Ian killed and buried three years earlier? Is there a way to find out what’s really going on and to stop the betrothal? Somewhere in the middle of all this, Ian finally realizes that he loves Kyla and now has one more reason to stop the betrothal. It’s rough going, but they get help from some unlikely sources, including a mysterious beggar woman in a hooded cloak who seems to appear just when she or her information is needed. Who is she? Can they all work together to banish the enemy and try to bring peace? Is it possible that during this struggle, Ian can learn more about his past and who he really is? Maybe? You won’t believe this one! Ian’s story brings the saga to a wonderful conclusion. I really enjoyed the great characters, exciting story with plenty of danger, adventure, and mystery, and Tim Campbell’s entertaining narration.

Ian MacKeffe is the third thread in this tapestry that tells of the life of Ian and Kyla. He was the third member of the men known as the MadMan MacKeffe. On all Hallow's Eve Ian saw the man that he was sure he had killed three years ago.Kyla was the sister of Aidan and had grown up following them around. She had been in love with Ian forever and he only thought of her as a wee sister who pestered him all the time. Kyla had grown into a strong beautiful woman but would Ian notice before it was to late? You need to listen to this fantastic tale woven by Elizabeth Rose and brought to life by the voice of Tim Campbell.
