Review by: Stacy Palm OH LA LA, I love a good story about highlander hotties! At first, I was a bit fearful that this book would read too much like a cheap knock off of my beloved "Outlander Series" by Diana Gabaldon, but I was pleasantly surprised. For those of you that have read Outlander you will greatly enjoy this book. The premise seems similar, but they are very different stories, however both are dripping with romantic moments in the vast Scottish Isle of days gone by. This story has a strong female lead that is extremely independent and head strong. These qualities assist her in becoming an awesome female warrior later in the story. The story begins when the academically successful Isa finds herself transported back to the Highlands of the 1300's, but she is not alone. From there on out is a wonderful story packed with mystery, magic, and hot steamy love scenes. There is an extreme twist to this story, which I desperately want to discuss, but it will be a spoiler for some people. Therefore: ********************************SPOILER ALERT********************** Our heroine not only goes back in time to 1300's, but she continues traveling and ends up with a second lover in 85 AD! I will be honest, I was a little put off by Isa having two man that she was madly in love with, but I think that the author handled the situation quite well and I eventually came to an agreeable acceptance of Isa's actions. I really came to love this story and enjoyed the twist and turns this adventure led me on. |
