"This one is not to be missed!"

Euan Donald of the Isle of Skye is miffed because his Hay bride-to-be has run off with another man and now he's decided to go steal a bride. As a matter of fact, he and his brothers are all going to steal brides.

Janet Duval and her best friend Morag leave a bar in Nairn to walk back to the Inn when a very eerie fog engulfs them. They get so lost in the fog that Janet literally runs into a wall. The next thing they know, men on horseback ride out of the fog and scoop Morag up. Janet runs but can't seem to run fast enough before a man as big as a tree scoops her up and throws her over his horse. She promptly faints. When Janet comes to Morag tells her the most amazing story. It seems they've traveled back in time. How can this be?

Before all is said and done Janet is married to The Donald and Morag is married to his brother Stuart. Each brother does his best to make sure their brides don't want to go back to where they are from.

Not only was this a sensual story but it was a wonderful story about how love conquers all. Euan is most definitely an alpha male but Janet is just the woman to handle him and handle him she does, quite well, I might add. I look forward to reading many more of Jaid Black's stories!
