David is a bit of a reluctant hero. He has to "rule" his
people well and make the correct decisions as laird, a
position he never wanted to hold. Elisabeth, a doctor,
finds herself thrown back in time to Scotland. She isn't
quite sure of the how or why, but she decides that she will
still practice medicine. Elisabeth must be careful; if too
many people decide that she is practicing witchcraft rather
than medicine she could lose her life.
Elisabeth's character is easy to connect to. She is
the "true healer," putting herself in danger to help
others. She appears to truly want the best for people, a
trait which can become a little annoying when applied to
certain characters. David is a good character as well.
Sometimes, readers may feel like he is a little too
self-deprecating and gloomy, but he recovers nicely
towards the end of LORD OF THE BLACK ISLE. The other
characters are
nice enough, though not particularly memorable. If you are
looking for a sweet romance, LORD OF THE BLACK ISLE may be
the perfect
book!
