It is 1843, and the beautiful little highland town of Moraig, is struggling to survive. Unwilling to sit around and do nothing, William MacKenzie, the future heir to Kilmartie Castle, has come up with a plan. He has organised Highland Games and has invited a reporter from the London Times, in the hopes that it will draw tourists from London, to their picturesque village. Loved by the townspeople, William does not want any credit for his hard work and just wants everything to go perfectly. But he hadn't planned on the reporter to be a woman. And not just any woman - but the most beautiful woman he has ever laid eyes on. Instantly mumbling and at a loss for words, William does not make the best first impression.
Miss Penelope Tolbertson has worked extremely hard to establish her career and is determined to be a success. Having a slight stammer, she is sure the highlander is mocking her with his bumbling greeting. And deciding that she will stay with family that she has in the village, throws all of Williams plans into disarray. But as she begins her research for the story, Penelope soon discovers that there is so much more to William. Spending more time together, it is not long before their attraction grows, and as curiosity takes over, Penelope plans to seduce him. Wanting to experience love with her handsome highlander, she is happy to return to her life in London, once the story is complete. But as passion develops into so much more, will they be able to walk away unscathed? With William dedicated to his hometown, and Penelope dedicated to her career, will they ever be able to find a way to be together?
HER HIGHLAND FLING by Jennifer McQuiston is a short, sassy, romantic read that brought the picturesque town of Moraig and its inhabitants, to life. William is such a thoughtful, considerate character, with passion that knows no bounds. Yet he does not expect Penelope to sacrifice everything for him, and I admired that about him. Penelope is determined, successful and willing to take risks to get what she wants.
The story flows beautifully, and the description of the Highlands transported me there. HER HIGHLAND FLING by Jennifer McQuiston is a thoroughly entertaining highland romance, and I cannot wait to read more from this author.

work,

prospect. After receiving an invitation to cover Moraig's
Highland Games, Penelope is determined to prove to her
London editors just how valuable she can be.
Penelope instantly captures William's heart, but she is
none
too impressed with the gruff, broody Highlander; however,

may want more from him than just a story. She's only got a
few days β¦ but maybe a few days are all they need.
