The Blurb:
A WARRIOR TOO ELUSIVE TO CAPTURE
He is a Scottish Laird who live in a world of Druid magic and ancient customs, hand fasted to the sister of his rival clan, MacDougall. Alasdair thought he was doing the right thing trying to bring peace to the region. But he is murdered on the eve of his wedding. Not willing to accept his death, his mother, a Druid princess, performs a geas to keep him alive. But something went awry because, as the last word of the geas was spoken, Alasdair is trapped in time where he wanders the earth for centuries. The only one who can bring him back home is his betrothed. He has given up on ever finding her until she walks into his office in twentieth century Manhattan.
A WOMAN TOO STRONG WILLED TO TAME
Coira Ainsley is a happy-go-lucky young woman living in twentieth century Manhattan. Her job as a travel agent took her all over. She love the work she did and is excellent at it. That was until she follows her client into his office and finds herself in fourteenth century at Inveraray Keep in the Highlands of Scotland. At first, Coira thinks a prank is being played on her until she saw the giant, wearing nothing but a kilt and a studded leather strap across his massive chest approaching her. Not one given to swooning, Coira finds herself welcoming the darkness that come over her as she loses consciousness, without learning that the naked giant is her betrothed from another time… another place. Will she give in and accept what has been pre-destined or will she fight to get back to the life she knows and loves?
ARC generously provided by author in exchange for my honest review:
Whew! Haven't picked up a good old-fashioned bodice ripper in some time. This one did not disappoint. Coira finds herself suddenly transported to a castle in 14th century Scotland. The Laird is Alasdair, who she just had a business meeting with in present-day Manhattan. This magical dilemma has Coira out of sorts, understandably (no matter how hot the Laird is).
Ephraime is true to the historical elements of the period, even in dialect. And I’m a sucker for men with accents.
Among other things.
Swoon-worthy historical romance, with a lot of devotion to the details of the era. As a slow burn junkie, I must also add that I loved that we had to wait for Coira to adjust to her circumstances before she develops the connection with Alasdair. The sexual tension was so good and so maddening!
If you like steamy historical romance, this book is definitely for you!
