In search of a fresh start, Emma Baxter has traveled to Scotland to try to forget her rocky love life. Luckily, the gorgeous Highlander who owns the house up the path from her rental cottage might be exactly the kind of distraction she needs. But there’s more to his intriguing qualities than she can explain—and she certainly isn’t buying into the local legends of Highland magic.

Nathaniel MacLeod is a man adrift, all thanks to the unwanted gift that forces him to continually jump between centuries. He never knows if he’ll wind up in the present day or the fourteenth century, but when Emma follows him back through time, he suddenly has more to worry about than keeping his separate lives straight…

Someone has started to notice Nathaniel’s travels and now, no time period is safe, for him or for Emma.

 

 

 

I really hated rating this book two stars but it was fairly difficult for me who hadn't read the previous book to really hop right into. While its not totally necessary I don't think there are quite a few details and characters that appear to carry over with information that left me on the outside looking in without any real context.

I did like the thriller / suspense kind of angle that was written into this book however it left me contused as to what this book was really supposed to be.

Its very well written and its a great read and I liked the idea but because I didn't have any real grasp on it I think that left me more at a loss than anything. If you haven't read the previous books in this series I highly suggest it so that you have a better understanding on what's going on where the added information is included, if you have read it I'm sure its a new installment to the MacLeod series that you will very much enjoy.

 

 

 

Until next time book lovers...

The White Spell (Nine Kingdoms #10) by Lynn Kurland
The White Spell (A Novel of the Nine Kingdoms) - Lynn Kurland


Acair of Ceangail, youngest bastard son of the worst black mage in history, has followed in his father’s footsteps, wreaking havoc throughout the world and leaving powerful enemies in his wake. After a year of reparation, he owes a final bit of penance: twelve months spent working in a barn without using his magic.
 
Léirsinn of Sàraichte understands horses, stable work, and how to judge men’s hearts.  When she starts seeing shadows where there should only be light, she knows there is evil afoot. Unfortunately, it's something she can’t fight on her own.
 
Acair’s attempts to aid Léirsinn only draw the notice of dangerous mages against whom he is currently defenseless. With only each other to rely on, Acair and Léirsinn find themselves suddenly in a race to save the world before it’s consumed by darkness.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

White Spell was really beautiful. I love the world, I love the characters, I love the emotional journey, everything.

Kurland doesn't waste anything in this book, she doesn't mince words or use empty vocabulary to get her story told. Each statement and sentence has a purpose and meaning. Its wonderful.

Honestly I love Kurland's writing. She's a talented story teller.

Also I have to admit how much I liked Acair. I mean really. Who wouldn't like a guy like him by the end? That amused acceptance totally won me.

 

*Warning * *May contain minor spoiler*

Even at the conclusion the journey continues on and he's content to do so with the woman he loves at his side. Love it.

Stars in Your Eyes - Lynn Kurland

Stars in Your Eyes (de Piaget #14) by Lynn Kurland

Imogen Maxwell is on a hunt for rare, antique items to use on a period movie set. The last thing she expects to discover in the peaceful Scottish countryside is a pristine medieval sword . . . or to suddenly find herself facing its very vintage owner in a far too authentic castle.
Phillip de Piaget has run out of patience with his recalcitrant Scottish betrothed and is determined that she will join him, once and for all, in front of the altar. Only the lass he captures fleeing his would-be keep seems more interested in running away from him than talking to him. In fact, she seems to have no idea who he is.
But taming his reluctant bride is the least of his worries; it seems someone else wants him at the chapel . . . in a stone box. As for Imogen, how can he let her go, when she holds the key to not only the castle, but his heart?


My Review:
There were some sweet moments but I just couldn't really get into it. I didn't have much feeling for either h/h or the plot.


My Rating:
2 Stars
