Jennifer Ashley has been an author that's always on my radar. However, with this latest installment in the MacKenzie and McBrides series, I feel she has rejuvenated the series. Ashley is taking readers into the mid-1700s, a time before the cast of characters we already know and love, and gives us another charismatic group that I'm genuinely excited about.

I've always been a fan of Highlanders but Malcolm MacKenzie has really kick-started that obsession all over again. He's determined, flirty and downright sinful too. And when he sets his eyes on Lady Mary Lennox, it's love at first sight.

Knowing that she is out of reach doesn't deter him. In fact, it almost becomes a quest for him as he does all he can so that he can spend time with her. It's really quite sweet actually, and Ashley had me swooning on more than one occasion.

In addition to the whirlwind romance, Ashley introduces more of the MacKenzies. There's no other way to put this: they are a rowdy bunch and if she keeps this up, I think there's a possibility that they can even top reader's current favorites, such as Ian and the others.

Don't wait like me to read THE STOLEN MACKENZIE BRIDE! You won't regret jumping into the past with these sexy Highlanders!
