No!Anyone but him…

Outlander meets Christian Grey in this evocative, sensual romance. If you like dominant, stern men and sassy heroines to give them a run for their money, backed up by a powerful plot to curl your toes and move you to tears, then you’ll love this outrageously sexy tale.

A taxi driver may not be the swankiest job in the world, but I’m my own boss and I choose who gets in my cab—or do I?

All he needs is a short ride to a hotel. I can be back at the airport, grab another fare before the night’s over, right? Except… what? Now he’s telling me he wants to go where?

Scotland!

He’s crazy! But I’ve said ‘yes’… I’m agreeing to drive him halfway across the country. How did that even happen?

So, now who’s lost it? All too soon, what my sexy passenger really wants becomes crystal clear, and what’s even more incredible – I want this too!

Then comes the reckoning. This isn’t about just Harry and me anymore. The past comes calling with the power to devastate more lives than just ours!

From the Inside Flap

Two strangers, one outrageous proposal, and the journey of a lifetime.
He offers her a small fortune to drive him to Scotland. Harry McLeod is persistent, and Hope needs the cash. But what are the real terms of this outrageous deal?
A random accident as a teenager wrecked Hope Shepherd's aspirations to be an international athlete. Now working as a taxi driver, Hope is unsettled by a sexy Canadian she picks up at the airport. With his good looks and easy charm, he's just the sort of man she can do without. But can she afford to turn down his offer?
Harry McLeod wants to go to the Highlands, to the Isle of Skye where he hopes to discover his ancestral roots. Harry desires Hope, and the attraction is shared. If he can get her in his bed--or better still, tied to it--will she allow him to peel away her protective layers to release her inner submissive? Harry is stern, uncompromising, outrageously sexy and utterly irresistible. How will Hope respond to his dark brand of sensuality? Does he offer more than a generous fare and a few erotic encounters?
When they reach Skye, a feud spanning four generations challenges all that Hope thought she was coming to know about submission. Will it be enough to convince her that this could be a relationship to stand the test of time?

Ashe lives in the wilds of West Yorkshire where she enjoys drinking Earl Grey tea, walking the Bronte moors and listening to Bon Jovi - loud.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The Skye Duet, Book 1. Karma may be a…but can it control everything? Is there another way?
    Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2019
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    My past nearly destroyed me. But I’m Hope Shepherd. No one and nothing controls me! Being a taxi driver may not be the swankiest job in the world, but I’m my own boss. And I choose my fares—or do I? When I lay eyes on him, NO! Anyone but him. But all Harry McLeod needs is a short ride to a hotel. I can be back at the airport, grab another fare before the night’s over, right? Only, what? He wants to go WHERE? Scotland! He’s nuts! As I said, NO ONE, especially a total stranger, tells me what to do. How is it possible I say yes? Harry’s the personification of forbidden charm. Now who’s nuts? But is he really going to explore his family history or…? All too soon what he wants is transparently clear. But…but…but—wait! I can’t want this too! Then, out of nowhere, comes the reckoning. It’s not just Harry and me anymore. The past comes calling with the power to destroy—and I mean everything! Fate’s a cruel mistress, and it seems karma’s finally about to demand its due. Can I do anything? More importantly, can Harry? There are more lives at stake than just ours. When the final reckoning comes, who’s going to pay?

    I love Hope and Harry. These two couldn’t be more different. Hope’s past made her a loner, independent, a driven woman. No one, especially a man, is going to tell her what to do. Harry’s sex on a stick but so what? She’s no pushover, and she’s NOT going to be any man’s conquest. But does she truly know who she is or what she wants? She’s pushed everything down so deep inside. And Harry? He may look like every woman’s dream but is he? He has his own demons, even if he’s not aware of them. Despite them, he sees past Hope’s exterior to what’s inside, even if she can’t. The attraction between them is magnetic, almost magical. But is attraction, no matter how strong, ever enough? This story goes so far beyond just Hope and Harry. The past collides with the present and has the power to derail everything for everyone. Everything Harry thought he knew about his family comes crashing down around his head in a second. And where does that leave Hope? I always love Ashe Barker’s books. She has the ability to weave a complex tapestry of mystery, sexy romance, and gorgeous, detailed scenarios into a story that holds you captive. Obviously, I loved Hope and Harry. But without the amazingly detailed and breathtaking descriptions of the Scotland highlands this book wouldn’t be as wonderful as it is. And, with Ms. Barker, there’s always a “gotcha” moment. This one’s a doozy! No one could be prepared for this book’s ending. Thank you, Ms. Barker! As always, this book is awesome, and I adored it!

    A final note. This is an ADULT book. It contains explicit language and BDSM sexual scenes. If you don't enjoy this genre, this may not be the book for you. Check the book blurbs and reviews available on Goodreads and Amazon. Please use them before buying this book. This book is a real treat, and I absolutely loved it! I think you will too.

    Thanks for reading my review and happy reading!

    Are you looking for a great book that will keep glued to the pages and unable
    to stop until the last sentence".Highland Odyssey"by Ashe Barker,is the book
    for you.The book is a fine balance between great writing and kink and the author
    has the ability to tell a story that is emotionally complex with a detailed vivid
    plot full of hope and new beginnings.

    This book jumps right out at you as it focuses on the instant attraction between
    Harry McLeod and Hope Shepherd who meet in unusual circumstances.Harry hires
    hope to drive him to the Highlands of Scotland as he tries to discover his ancestral
    roots.I fell in love with Harry and Hope throughout their journey together.Hope was
    a complex character with many layers and Harry gradually pleals back the layers
    revealing her hidden submissive nature.Harry's was a caring,strict Dom who was tuned
    into Hope's emotional needs on her journey of self awareness.Hope was a strong,resilient
    character but had baggage she needed to conquer.

    This is one of the most captivating books that I have read and Ashe Barker has composed
    a tapestry filled with colorful vivid scenery and visceral and sensory delights in a story that
    touched my soul.It is written in a manner that never lets you take a breath,it never lets you
    rest.It was full of surprises and expect the unexpected.Its full of scorching hot sex scenes
    that will leave you breathless,BDSM,family reunions and romance.Bring on book two in this
    series.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Scottish Submission
    Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2022
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Due to an accident in her youth, Hope has left her athletic aspirations behind and chosen to become a taxi driver. She enjoys driving and agrees to drive her passenger, Harry, to Scotland. He is on an adventure searching out his roots. And Hope is on a working/vacation full of beauty and excitement.

    Harry is a sweet speaking, careful yet rough and determined Dom. Hope is entirely new to the idea of submission. But as Harry slowly and patiently leads her into eagerly accepting his erotic demands, their trip becomes even more and more beautifully sensual and seductive. For me, this was an excellent story filled with both acceptance and growth with some consensual discipline and some very exceptional love making.

    Good story. Road trip with BDSM. Lots of it. This boarder on ouch to me a great deal of the time. I felt Harry;s character was flat and I didn’t feel the love and affection from him. He was very flat with his emotion. I think that’s why I didn’t give more stars. I think the story needed his POV.

    I’m not going to read the next.

    Wow!
    A well plotted story, believable characters, beautifully described scenery, a true representation of BDSM, and the occasional twist in the tale....all made for an engrossing read.

    I enjoyed the book, despite the odd discomfort I felt on Hope's behalf....Harry is a true Dom!

    I can't wait to read the sequel!
