MIDNIGHT'S KISS BY DONNA GRANT is a story of trust, love
and faith. Dr Ronnie Reid is a well known archeologist who
has a knack for finding buried artifacts. She has no idea
why these items call to her, but she learned long ago not
to ignore their calling. For some reason this particular
site in Scotland has been calling to her the loudest that
she has ever heard. Thanks to a sizeable donation from her
friend Saffron, she is set for a while. But in return she
agrees to let a friend of Saffron's volunteer at the site.
Everything is running along just fine, until her newest
volunteer shows up. The friend of Saffron's that Ronnie
agrees to take in is not what she expected. She never in
her wildest dreams expected the God of a man that comes
into their camp later that night. Arran is gorgeous and
right from their first meeting the sparks fly. Arran is a
little taken aback when he is introduced to the beautiful
Dr. Ronnie Reid, by her name he is expecting a man. Of
course Saffron knew that Ronnie is female and he decides
that he will have a little talk with her later about not
warning him. As soon as Arran got to the site the magic
that surrounded him was incredible, the closer he gets to
Ronnie he realizes that it is not just the site that is
surrounded by magic, but Ronnie herself. He has never felt
anything so good in his life and wants to wrap himself up
in it all and in Ronnie. He controls himself barely,
because he knows he is there for a reason. He and his
Warrior brothers are hopeful that this location may hold
the spell that could once again bind their Gods.
Ronnie is leery of Arran, she has had items stolen from her
before by someone she trusted and thought she loved. He
feelings for Arran are confusing her and intriguing her at
the same time. She wants to trust him and believe him that
he will not steal from her, but she has a hard time
trusting anyone, except Pete and Andy. Once Ronnie finds
the arch and insists that they dig until the full arch and
door are revealed she will not be happy. Arran keeps
warning her that somethings are better left buried, but
she cannot stop. She knows there is a box buried in the
earth that she has to get to, the pull of its song is so
strong that it is now invading her dreams, some thing that
has never happened before. Once the full door is revealed
Arran talks Ronnie into waiting till the next day to open
it. But she cannot sleep and figures there is no reason she
cannot explore it by herself. Once inside there are several
fascinating items she sees and would like to explore at
greater length. Along with a tablet that she would like to
have more time to decipher. But what draws her in is the
box, it is begging her to open it. Before she knows it she
has opened the box and has let lose these ash like
creatures that are flying at her and attacking her. Luckily
Arran's hearing is so acute, he hears her screams and comes
to her rescue, but not before being attacked himself and
having blood sucked from him. He has never seen anything
like these creatures and he is at a lose as to how to fight
them. He figures taking the head off would be his best bet,
luckily that works. But he doesn't get them all, some
escape.
Once the story moves away from the dig site and into
Edinburg after the fundraiser, this is where the real
action starts. The first half of the MIDNIGHT'S KISS moves
a little slow, but stay with it and you will not be
disappointed. There is so much action in the last half of
the book, you will fly through it. I liked MIDNIGHT'S
KISS, but felt that there could have been less of the dig
site in the beginning . If you are fan of Ms. Grants
Warriors you are going to want to read MIDNIGHT'S KISS,
this book takes the Warriors and Druids of MacLeod castle
in a new direction and a new evil to fight.
