"fun time travel romance"
American Lily Hamlin is enjoying her time visiting
Scotland as she tries to figure out what she wants in life
because she always feels restless. Currently she
investigates a not kept up garden maze in Lochaoer when
she finds an odd stone map. She presses her hand against
the map only to feel the earth shake with her last twenty-
first century being the irony of dying in an earthquake
away from her home town of San Francisco. However, she
does not demise, instead she find herself back in 1654; as
the map proves to be a time portal. Highlander Chieftain Ewen Cameron is working with his
warriors to drive the English and a rival clan off his
land when he spots the bewildered Lily. She speaks weird
and her clothing is stranger, but he is attracted to her
and her to him. However, he has no time for a female even
one he desires as his clan and his heir come before his
wants. Although microwave age Lily adapts to the mid seventeenth
century with questionable ease even with love as a
motivator, time travel romance fans will want to read the
exciting MASTER OF THE HIGHLANDS due to the hero
struggling with what his clan needs and what he desires.
Lily believes she is finally found her niche in life with
the young chieftain warrior, but must persuade him they
belong together as he willingly sacrifices his love to
keep her safe even if that means 2008 San Francisco.
Veronica Wolff provides an entertaining romance starring
two likable protagonists who want the best for their
beloved. Harriet Klausner

hopes that she can find her place again. But while exploring
the Highlands, she discovers an overgrown maze and a strange
stone mapand lands in the Lochaber of 1654...
...JUST IN TIME FOR HIM.
Ewen, Chief of the Clan Cameron, is a busy man who must
figure out how to save his people from the brutal redcoats
and has time for little else. Having sired an heir, the
widowed Ewen has no need-or room-for another romance. Then
into his life drops a saucy lass with a peculiar accent, no
regard for his titleand an arousing body. Drawn to
each other despite their differences, they both realize that
they don't want her to go back to her own time. But with
battles brewing between the Camerons, the redcoats, and a
rival clan, staying is a gamble.
