When the book begins, widow Beth Ackerly is engaged to a man she doesn’t love. She had love once but now she’s settling for comfort and children. Those dreams are tossed out the window when Lord Ian Mackenzie, rumored mad son of a duke, first sees her and sets her straight about her money grubbing f...

Really liked this. Really really. The H, Ian has Asberger's or high functioning autism. Of course, it's undiagnosed, and back then he was just considered crazy. He's not crazy, but he is completely endearing. I was concerned about reading about a hero that might be socially awkward, I couldn't imagi...

I had been avoiding this book because the blurb didn't do t for me but as I found myself out of the 'good' Kleypas books I thought I pick this one up. I am so glad I did. Ian and Beth struck a chord with me. I like Beth who is so honest with her feelings and what she wants. I like Ian, who despite...

Four solid stars.The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie was MAD GOOD! Laugh out loud funny, blushingly hot smexy scenes, growling Scottish accents and a pretty good mystery to boot! Beth was a fantastic heroine. Born in the gutter, widow of a vicar, spent years as a paid companion to a wealthy lady, t...

I think Beth fell in love prematurely. She admitted to herself in falling in love with Ian at the time when she doesn't understand his peculiarity yet. I don't think anyone could fall in love with somebody said to be crazy. The normal first reaction would be avoidance and maybe some pity (not sleep ...

I’ve heard read so many glowing reports on how absolutely amazing this book is this. I liked it, but I didn’t love it the way most other readers seemed to. The premise is different, and therefore intriguing. Lord Ian Mackenzie is a man dealing with Aspergers before there was ever such a diagnosis. T...

Review of the audiobook.There is no way that I could rate any of Jennifer Ashley's Highland Pleasure novels as less than five stars! That said, however, I am not at all a fan of the narrator, Angela Dawe. I've listened to this one, plus my favorite, [b:The Many Sins of Lord Cameron|8563824|The Many ...

It was enjoyable, but I didn't like it as much as I thought I would. However, I will continue the series and hope it gets better.

My taking several days to finish this book had less to do with the book than something giving me a lovely allergy induced headache for a couple of days. Hard to read with the lights off and your head buried under a pillow. Anyway...I didn't pay much attention to the book when it was first released...
