The Highlander's Vow (Loch Moigh #4)
by Barbara Longley
Blurb:
On
the eve of her wedding, Sky Elizabeth, the earl of Fife’s eldest daughter,
learns of her betrothed’s murderous plot against her. As she flees, Sky falls
through a mysterious portal in time, landing at the feet of a
twenty-first-century American knight.
Struan,
the bastard son of the earl of Sutherland, escaped death through time’s portal
once. Recognizing what has befallen the frightened woman, he vows to protect
her even while Sky, with a trace of fae blood in her veins, senses his
resentment.
Despite
their growing attraction, she’s determined to find a way home to avert a clan
war. Though he cannot deny his desire, he fears that helping her return to the
past will surely lead to his demise. As the two work together, passion ignites
and an unbreakable bond forms—but will it be enough to sustain them through the
perils they’ll face in the past? Can their love have a future?

Review:
The series that I never thought I would enjoy
continues with the story of the daughter of the lovers from the very first book
in the series. For long time readers
this story will be interesting just in that you get to see all the happy couples from the previous stories many years later and the lives they have led. We also get to enjoy a lot of time reading
where the characters are in the present time, which is what makes these time
travel romances fun. I can honestly say
that I have found very few time travel series to be interesting, but Ms.
Longley manages to make this series better and better with every story. I am looking forward to seeing where she
takes us next for sure. Sky is all grown up and tired of having to be the
dutiful daughter, but when her father tries to marry her off to one of their
neighbors, she is determined to put a stop to the wedding. But when the plot thickens :) and she
is forced to flee to save her life she never imagined she would fall through
time and land at the feet of the sexiest and sweetest knight in either her time
period or any other. Struan was long ago
pulled from his own time and plopped into the 21st century, but he
has made a home for himself and loves his adopted family, giving him no reason
to miss his own time. He just never
imagined himself in love with a sexy highland lass when she falls through time
herself. His sexy determination to get
Sky to stay with him in his time, but willingness to give her what will make
her happy—returning home to save her family—makes him even more of a knight in
my eyes. I loved getting to know the
adult Sky and seeing how her passion, sweetness, and sense of family honor were
able to find a balance with her love for the man she cannot live without. I cried a lot as Sky and Struan feel deeper
and deeper in love, but were pulled farther and farther apart by their duties
and desires. I enjoy this series
immensely and cannot wait to find out who gets a story next. If you like historical and contemporary
romance, with fun paranormal twists and sensuality and passion between the H/h
then I bet you’ll enjoy this series as much as I do. Keep the hits coming Barbara.
