Romance Paranormal

Christiana is being held against her will by her brother Torquil. She has visions of the future and he wants to know what she sees. One of her visions shows that she has a rescuer and she asks her elf friend Syrie to bring him through time for her. Chase Noble is unsettled. He can't find contentment anywhere and goes to the Faerie Falls to contemplate his future. He winds up working at a ranch as a cowboy and one night feels an earthquake. Then he feels himself being thrown through time. He meets Halldor and they become friends and like family. They pledge themselves to the service of Christiana's brother. During their time there, they find that things are not what they seem and neither is Troquil. As a WARRIOR REBORN, Chase vows to keep Christiana safe.

Both Chase and Christiana are unhappy with their lives. Christiana wants a life of freedom and not to answer to her brother. Chase wants a place where he can feel at home. Christiana thinks he will be upset when her learns her part in his travel through time. But, Chase realizes that this is where he belongs. Ms. Mayhue tells a tale set in Scotland with colorful word pictures and heavy with a Scottish brogue. Besides the main characters there is a subplot with Halldor and Bridget MacCulloch, whom I hope we meet again in another book. I would love to read the rest of their story. Then there is Orabilis, who gives Christiana the herbs for her visions and for her healing. WARRIOR REBORN captivates readers from the first page and is a thoroughly enjoyable read which I enjoyed very much.

SUMMARY

Former special ops agent CHASE NOBLE has been searching his whole life for the place where he belongs. As a descendant of Fae, he senses fate has more in store for him. And he will not rest until he discovers what his true purpose is. When he travels back in time to medieval Scotland, he discovers his mission is to save a beautiful woman -- the same woman he is destined to be with. CHRISTIANA MacDOWYLT possesses the gift of foresight. Prisoner of her evil half brother, Christiana has visions that show her that only one warrior can rescue her -- a man she is mysteriously drawn to. The only problem is, he's in the future. Now she must rely on the magic of a Faerie to transport him to the past. And when Christiana finally meets Chase, the sparks between them set off a smoldering desire. But will the magic that brought them together also tear them apart?
