(Mass Market Paperback)
A modern-day woman is wrenched through time by a brutal and bloody ceremonyonly to wind up in the arms of a Highland warrior fated for a tragic destiny.
Despite an unoriginal starting point, Wolff's passionate and magical third Highland romance (after 2008's Master of the Highlands) proves compelling. When Harvard student Haley Fitzpatrick is inexplicably transported to 17th-century Scotland, war hero Alasdair MacColla assumes she's one of the enemy Campbells. He keeps a wary eye on her, but her atypical strength and beauty slowly disarm him, just as his courage and larger-than-life physique arouse Haley's tender and romantic feelings. She knows that Alasdair will be betrayed in battle and decides to do whatever it takes to save him, even if it means creating a new version of history. Wolff brings the violent and territorial era to life and mixes in a passionate love story that is certain to please fans and entice new readers. (Jan.)
