Rose MacDonell, a witch, a healer and the youngest of three
gifted sisters, is unable to ascertain her father, Alan
MacDonell's, illness; therefore she's unable to heal him.
She can only give him as much comfort as possible.
Rose has written 10 letters asking for William McKay, Lord
Strathwick, the wizard of the north's, help, but to no
avail. He hasn't answered a single letter. If anyone can
help her father, it's him. Rose decides to travel north and
ask for his help in person.
After much pressure and toil, Rose convinces McKay to
travel south and to at least look at her father. William
teaches Rose more about her healing powers, and she finds
herself as her mind and passion bloom along the way. The
attraction between them is undeniable, but Rose is
betrothed to Jamie MacPherson.
William surmises dark magic is at work within the confines
of Glen Laire. As Rose and William work to uncover the
evil, they discover a powerful magic between themselves and
an inevitable destiny.
There is much more to this story as it unfolds. Ms. Holling
weaves many elements seamlessly into a final climactic
ending. The age-old struggle between good and evil is the
essential element and it works very well. MY SHADOW WARRIOR
is an enjoyable and tense read, especially toward the end.
Rose, the youngest of the MacDonell sisters, is more
concerned with her father's mysterious illness than with
her impending marriage to her childhood sweetheart. A
gifted but frustrated healer, she decides to beg help from
William MacKay -- a reclusive laird who is renowned not
only for his ferocity, but also for his healing powers.
Denied entry to his fortress in the cold, harsh mountains
of the far northwestern highlands, Rose uses cunning to
force her way in, and William is duly intrigued with this
bold slip of a girl. But securing his help may not be
enough to save Rose's father. For there is something darker
at work in the glen, something more powerful than William's
and Rose's magic combined, and only the soul-deep passion
that shadows their mutual desire can help their love
prevail.
