GENRE: Historical and Contemporary Romance; Time Travel; Scottish Romance

SETTING: 21st century Virginia; 15th century Scotland

CENTRAL FEMALE CHARACTER: SKY ELIZABETH MacKINTOSH – gift of sensing feelings in other; dedicated to family; nearing the age of 21;

CENTRAL MALE CHARACTER: STRUAN SUTHERLAND – committed to being a modern day man; drop dead gorgeous; a blacksmith; has a secret he does not want to share.

SYNOPSIS: Over hearing about death after a wedding, Sky races to inform her father. Instead, she lands in a pile of horse poop in the middle of a jousting tournament. Her rescuer? Struan, a man that recognizes the shimmering of colors that she just fell through.

WHAT I LIKED: A person that likes to stay where he is and the why of his choice.

WHAT I DID NOT LIKE: Katherine was not mentioned very much in 15th century (disappointing); Inappropriate language not necessary in an already great plot.

OVERALL RATING: (5) stars because unlike with book 1,2,3 this book involves the conflict of traveling in time as the plot slowly thickens. Would she; would he; would they? ( )

Incipit

Weary of travel and sore from sitting upon her palfrey’s saddle-clad back, Sky Elizabeth shifted yet again, trying to ease her discomfort. She shivered against the damp chill, and her gaze strayed to the keep looming against the distant horizon. The sight of Kildrummy Castle, soon to be her home, brought her no joy, and her heart grew heavy at the thought of her betrothed.

You are safe with me, my lady. You have my word. Be at ease.
I know what has happened to you, for the same happened to me a decade ago. I recognized the shimmering lights.
How old were you, Struan?” “Ten and four."
He sees it as his duty to look after you.
When you go back, Sky, we’re going with you
