Book Description

April 1, 2010
After travelling to Scotland on business, the bed of a highland laird is the last place Ali Graham expected to wake up. But there's no mistaking the irresistibly masculine Scottish Highlander whose chamber she's accidentally infiltrated - or the severe wound he's suffered in battle. As a doctor, Ali knows how to heal his injury, how to nurse his body back to health. What she doesn't know is how to heal his heart...A proud warrior and the leader of a powerful clan, Rory MacLeod is ready to fight to the death to protect his homeland. After all, ever since tragedy robbed him of his wife, he has had nothing to lose. Yet the mysterious woman sent to tend his wounds is beginning to reawaken something inside him - something that he'd rather stay buried. But when true passion is mixed with Scottish magic, even the most fearsome warrior could begin to fall...

5.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Time Travel, July 8, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Lord of The Isles (Kindle Edition)
Let me start off by saying, I don't like time travel. Karen Marie Moning being a notable exception. However, this book did a lot to make me more open to reading more stories built around men and women zinging through time and space to find their true loves ;-)

I won't replay the book as it's already been done quite well by other reviewers. I thought the opening was choppy and read a bit like "See Jane get lost, see Jane see her likeness in a portrait, see Jane wind up in bed with the hottie whose portrait she just lusted after." However, from the moment Jane a/k/a Ali landed in the MacLeod clan, I was absorbed.

So absorbed, in fact, that I completely did NOT see a particularly entertaining plot twist. Now, I may not be as intelligent as other readers/reviews. I may have been so into the story that the "Ah ha! I know where the author is going with this" just never kicked in. In either case, to be completely shocked by a particular happening in this, one of my favorite genres, is rare. Ms. Mazzuca accomplished it and for that, she has my most sincere thanks!

There was very little stumbling over editing issues. I had only a couple of instances where I had to re-read a couple of phrases when it seemed that the language didn't make sense. I loved the secondary characters and was able to suspend my disbelief enough to thoroughly enjoy Ali's exploits. I very nearly stopped reading during the wedding night scene, but the writer gracefully avoided my defection. I will read this again!

5.0 out of 5 stars Thorough Plot!!, June 30, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Lord of the Isles (Mass Market Paperback)
This is the first "real" book I've read in a long time! I have been buying Amazaon books for several yrs--and this is my first review bc I couldn't hold my tongue. I would like to encourage this author to write more books bc the talent is amazing. The plot stuck together like glue. I was amazed at the writing skills during the ending of the story because so many "tidbits" throughout the book served as major points to the plot; however, the tidbits were cleverly done in a way that it took me by surprise, and that doesn't happen alot. Each time a little more of the plot was revealed, I remembered each and every step of the way. There are so many books that make you stop and say, "wait a minute, when did that happen...(flip towards the front of the book)oh, I forgot abt that bc I skimmed through the overwhelming six pgs of boring exposition to get to that point..." This is certainly not one of those books. Over the last couple of yrs, I have grown bored with so many novels bc it was too easy to figure out the ending before being halfway finished. The story never lagged and there was never too much exposition. The characters were very much thought out, and I would believe this author to be a perfectionist at detail bc I felt very strong for each character that was presented. I cried, laughed, cried harder, and felt a full array of vengeance and anger for the villains in the book. I do not usually become so tied to characters bc of the amount of books I read, but I was shocked at how strongly I became emotionally connected to them. Being a time-travel novel, I was expecting cliches and a sagging theme, but that was not true. And to make sure that didn't happen, the author teleported the main character to Scotland before the first chapter even ends--leaving little wiggle room for the usual cliches needed for a time-travel character. The subplots were incredible and strongly built upon. They created some of the strongest emotions and each one tied to the ending. This was one of those books that you wished had a sequel for the main characters...

SPOILER ALERT:

The only thing that caught me by surprise that I found disappointing was when McLeod used the faery flag to send Ali home. I was shocked to find out that it wasn't the real flag. The reasoning: I had believed the real reason the magic didn't "seem" to work was because, being the long-lost dtr of MacDonald, Ali was already home--so when McLeod wished her "home", that's where she went. But that wasn't enough to cause me any grief, bc I know the story of the faery flag and who can and can't use it, and the three times it has been unfurled (according to legend). Very clever how only minor things were twisted to tell this story. This was an amazingly written book and the author definatley has the true talent of fictional writing. And if it helps, I am a major in Creative Writing with a minor in History, which is why I think I became so amazed with this book bc for anyone that has studied writing and history, it takes a lot to make sure that a fictional story doesn't have holes and cause the reader to question alternate courses--like I said, the plot stuck like glue, gorilla glue.

This review is from: Lord of the Isles (Mass Market Paperback)
I am a big fan of time travel romance and really enjoyed this book. The characters were all written very well and had comical interaction which I enjoy in my reading.
