“Okay this is a dream in book form. Who wouldn’t want to be on a vacation in Scotland and stumbled upon an enchanted Highlander that you had to wake up and then fell in love with. Okay maybe it sounds cheesy but I think that is the love I have for it.
First off, he basically tells her there is no point from running from him because he can catch her and when she finally tries… well he was right. Of course, she’s isn’t all that sure he was enchanted or just asleep in a dark whole of a cavern dressed in a 16th century costume. Makes perfect sense.
Why wouldn’t Gwen be skeptical? Of course, she’s took this trip because it was cheap and she’s looking for her *coughs* cherry picker. LOL Something I tend to hate about these books is that all the woman are virgins and the men are always 6’5”, okay maybe there are small variations in the height but the men are pretty much the same until we learn about them a bit more. (Then we find out they are carbon copies – lol)
When Gwen finally resigns herself to helping him reach these standing stones that could take him back, when he uses his Druid magic, she starts to get to know him. He tells her about what he would want in a wife and both Gwen and I got all mushy because what he wants is a woman to talk to, to be with and share life with.
Gwen starts thinking of him as a cherry tree chopper downer. LOL Of course, he makes it to the stones and then you have to read the other half because it isn’t really Drustan that goes back in time and now Gwen has to convince another version of Drustan that they are meant to be and he’s in bloody danger!
I really love this one. I remember liking Drustan’s brother Daegus (The Dark Highlander) better, but I don’t remember why now. I remember him being a little more wild but I love Drustan. I have to say the most brilliant thing Karen Marie Moning ever did was create the MacKeltar Clan. I mean what isn’t to like about a Clan full of big hot Highlanders!”
