Cursed with 13 nasty souls, Scottish and a Druid? Time travel and magic stones? Celtic artifacts?

4 Solid stars.

A few areas that lagged a bit.

My GR friends were right though. books 4 and on are tons better than the 1st 3.
Looking forward to reading the next in the series. ( )

Silly piece of romantic fluff! But I read it. I still remember it. Guess it has to have 3 stars. ( )

Poor Daegus, the things he went through for love, not only for Chloe but what he did for his brother and Gwen. The pain and guilt, he suffered I suffered right with him. I'm so glad he found his family, and his love. But I hated how the book ended, it sucked truly. ( )

The Dark Highlander
4.5 Stars

Spellbinding romance and an engaging story although the ending is a little anti-climactic.

Daegus and Chloe have explosive chemistry and the build up to the consummation of their relationship is intense and compelling. Chloe is a sweet, nerdy and spirited heroine. Her passion for her work, insatiable curiosity and quirky mannerisms are endearing - loved the way her fingers would curl in reaction to ancient artifacts and relics.

Daegus is a mesmerizing hero and the depth of his love for Chloe leave you breathless. Nevertheless, the portrayal of his tortured psyche could have been more detailed and intense.

The secret society plot has potential but is unfortunately underdeveloped and the villains never seem to pose a real threat. Moreover, the ending is lukewarm as all the action takes place off page and is related in retrospect (hence the 4.5 rather than 5 star rating).

Adam's book is next and given his Puckish nature, it should be interesting to say the least. ( )

Time is the coin of your life.

Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.

In a place difficult for humans to find, a man, of sorts—it amused him to go by the name of Adam Black among mortals—approached a silk-canopied dais and knelt before his queen.

Tom, I have my master's in ancient civilizations and speak as many languages as you do. You've always said my opinion counts. Does it or doesn't it?
