I passionately believe that the old saying – everyone has a book inside them – is true...

Eva Fellner's gripping novel of survival, courage, and forbidden love, set against the blood-soaked battlefields of Scotland's fight for freedom: Captured by slavers and trained as an assassin, Enja’s path home is forged in blood—despite her gift as a healer. In a land torn by war, she must defy the English king to save the man she loves—or become his next target. Highlands, 1289: After surviving a devastating shipwreck, Enja is captured by ruthless slavers and whisked away to the exotic lands of the Orient. Trained as a deadly assassin, she becomes a weapon of shadows. But Enja's heart yearns for home, and she embarks on an epic quest back to Scotland, a land torn apart by the brutal war between its clans and the invading English.
When the fearless clan leader, James Douglas, saves her from the brink of death, Enja is drawn into a world of fierce loyalty, love, and dangerous politics. Her growing feelings for James only complicate matters when he is taken prisoner by the English. With the threat of the powerful English King looming, Enja must confront her darkest fears and summon all her lethal skills to rescue him—at the risk of becoming a target herself.

Comment
Eva Fellner tells a powerful story that goes beyond just historical fiction, taking readers on a journey of strength, self-discovery, and empowerment. The heart of the novel is Enja, a warrior who bravely fights to reclaim her freedom from slavery, no matter the cost.

From the very first page, I was pulled into Enja's strong will and determination. Her story speaks to anyone who has ever felt trapped by society’s expectations. The question, "Why was she able to escape?" runs through the story, encouraging readers to think about the inner strength needed to break free from our own limits, whether they are physical, emotional, or societal.

Fellner’s writing is lively and engaging, taking us back to a time when women’s voices were often silenced. Yet Enja rises as a brave warrior, fighting for her own freedom. Her journey reflects a struggle that many of us face as we try to reconnect with our true selves, beyond being a mother, wife, or employee.

This book isn’t just a historical tale; it’s a strong reminder of the hero inside all of us. It encourages us to embrace our inner strength and fight for the freedom and authenticity we deserve. As Enja overcomes her challenges, we are reminded that we, too, are on our own paths to finding where we belong.

Fellner’s writing is both beautiful and moving, making every triumph and heartbreak feel real. *The Highlanderess: Enja's Voyage* is a heartfelt call to those searching for their place in the world, reminding us that while the road to freedom may be tough, it’s our courage that leads us to where we truly belong.

This book is a must-read for anyone who believes in the strength of the human spirit and the endless pursuit of freedom. Enja’s story will stay with you long after you’ve finished reading.
