Relocate Lysistrata from Ancient Greece to medieval Scotland to understand the underlying theme in CLAIMING THE HIGHLANDER. The invigorating story line is amusing yet enables the reader to feel they are in the Highlands during the reign of Henry II. The lead couple is a delightful pair playing Spencer Johnson and Kenneth Blanchard's "Who Moved My Cheese?" enabling readers to fully enjoy Kinley MacGregor's opening tale in her MacAllister brothers' trilogy.
