Highlander's Curse (Daughters of the Glen #8)

by Melissa Mayhue



When COLIN MACALISTER is cursed by the Faerie Queen and ends up in the bed of a twenty-first-century woman—who also happens to be the most beautiful creature he’s ever laid eyes on—he’s torn between anger and lust. Colin is determined to see Scotland free of English control and must return to the fourteenth century, yet he cannot forget the woman who haunts his dreams and stirs him with scorching desire.



ABIGAIL PORTER can’t believe her luck. After making a wish to find her soul mate, she wakes up to find a gorgeous man in her bed! Can he really be a medieval Highlander summoned by her Faerie Magic, however? It seems crazy, but when Abby discovers someone wants to enslave her because of her Faerie heritage, she agrees to flee with Colin to 1306 Scotland to avoid capture. Thwarting danger at every turn, Abby and Colin surrender to an irresistible passion. But is the magic of true love powerful enough to save them?





My Thoughts....



I have to start off buy saying that this series on a whole has been excellent.Abby tale with Colin is very endearing. Abby happens to wake up one morning with a naked hunky Highlander in her bed thinking she had to much to drink last night and this is a one night stand.Even being uneasy about this situation she is thinking how lucky am I.There paths crossed as Abby being of Fae descent and not realizing she was Fae at all brought Colin forward in time as she was wishing for him all along that he is magically connected to her. And hopefully her life mate even though she wasn't looking for one per say.Colin is in the middle of a pending war when he was brought forth in time. He needs to get back to his family in order for him to help them from dying in a war he's already seen. Contacting his family that is here in this time for help. But, nothing seems to work and the only one who can help him is Abby and she thinks he is crazy for even asking as she has no powers.



Abby is traveling back in time too help Colin and return home. Things are never easy someones out to hurt Abby and Colin is torn between protecting Abby and saving his friends.They are out on a grand adventure to conquer both causes while falling in loving and creating happiness together and being torn as Abby knows she will never be able to live in the time period.Nice to visit but, she wants out of there! As always Melissa has included most case members from previous books engaging in this tale which I so enjoy. The character's were funny, witty and it was a heartfelt tale.Enjoyable welcome read. A note to readers even though this is part of a series like some books if you read out of the series your lost.You could read this book out of sequence and still have and understanding of whats going on.
