Abigail Porter, archaeologist, just snagged a plum assignment for a mysterious man who is funding an excavation of one of Scotland's stone circles. She has the gift of somehow psychically connecting to and finding specific items, no matter how deeply they may be buried. Her gift makes her very successful in her chosen field but has also attracted interest of a darker sort. At a farewell party with her best buds, drunken talk turns to their heart's dreams and she makes a wish and toast in one, to find the perfect man who is destined to be the love of her life.
Colin MacAlister has been cursed by the fae to always feel the pain of the broken soul bonds of those around him. As he is poised to fight alongside his kin with the army of King Robert against Edward Longshanks, he is whisked away in a swirl of green fae magic to awake at the side of a comely lass 700 years in the future. He quickly learns the terrible outcome of the battle and his single overriding goal becomes returning to his time to warn his kin, saving their lives, regardless of how his actions may change history.
In book eight of her Daughters of the Glen series, Melissa Mayhue allows readers to visit many of the couples brought together in previous volumes while keeping the action and romance of the main plot strong. HIGHLANDER'S CURSE is a lovely light time-travel romance with plenty of humor and some action. It is perfect for escapist reading, especially for those of us with a soft spot for Hebridean history.
When COLIN MACALISTER is cursed by the Faerie Queen and
ends up in the bed of a twenty-first century woman β who
also happens to be the most beautiful creature heβs ever
laid eyes on β heβs torn between anger and lust. Colin is
determined to see Scotland free of English control and
must return to the fourteenth century, yet he cannot
forget the woman who haunts his dreams and stirs him with
scorching desire.
ABIGAIL PORTER canβt believe her luck. After making a wish
to find her Soulmate, she wakes up to find a gorgeous man
in her bed! Can he really be a medieval Highlander
summoned by her Faerie Magic, however? It seems crazy, but
when Abby discovers someone wants to enslave her because
of her Faerie heritage, she agrees to flee with Colin to
1306 Scotland to avoid capture.
Thwarting danger at every turn, Abby and Colin surrender
to an irresistible passion. But is the magic of true love
powerful enough to save them?
