A laird trapped between centuries Enchanted by a powerful spell, Highland laird Drustan MacKeltar slumbered for nearly five centuries hidden deep in a cave, until an unlikely savior awakened him. The enticing lass who dressed and spoke like no woman he’d ever known was from his distant future, where crumbled ruins were all that remained of his vanished world. Drustan knew he had to return to his own century if he was to save his people from a terrible fate. And he needed the bewitching woman by his side.... A woman changed forever in his arms Gwen Cassidy had come to Scotland to shake up her humdrum life and, just maybe, meet a man. How could she have known that a tumble down a Highland ravine would send her plunging into an underground cavern - to land atop the most devastatingly seductive man she’d ever seen? Or that once he’d kissed her, he wouldn’t let her go? Bound to Drustan by a passion stronger than time, Gwen is swept back to sixteenth-century Scotland, where a treacherous enemy plots against them...and where a warrior with the power to change history will defy time itself for the woman he loves....

"A very sensual time-travel romance with a great ending -- enough to leave you wanting for more. The envy-worthy love between this highlander and the sassy heroine overcame the boundaries of time and space, love that was so strong as to defy forces that were inherently insurmountable... a real pleasure to read ^_^"

— Kat, 2/20/2014" This was my favorite in the series so far. Drustan is hot! I liked Gweynn a lot too. She was really funny when they went back to the 1500's. Now this series is starting to pave the way for things in the Fever Series. I can not stress enough to read Karen Marie Moning. She doesn't dissapoint! "

— Lilly, 2/4/2014" You've gotta be dead to not be charmed by Drustan! He's incorrigible, and I love it! "
— Rebekah, 1/21/2014" I liked the main characters, and especially that they were both highly intelligent. But it dragged and I almost didn't finish. "

— Claire, 11/21/2013" I love Drustan and Gwen. And I really like how everything ended too, they got their happy ending, but it sets up the next book since their happiness cost Daegus his humanity. Such familial love between them all. Probably my favorite book of the series so far. "

— Katherine, 3/29/2012" This was definitely the best book in the series so far ... hands down. This is the story of Gwen Cassidy from present day America and highland warrior Drustan MacKeltar from the year 1518 Scotland. Time travel, magic, adventure, romance, and an emotional roller coaster you won't soon forget. "

— Patmcclain, 5/7/2011" OMG!!! Karen Marie Moning is the cliff hanger queen!!!! And I love it!! What an awesome book! "
— Katherine, 5/5/2011" This series is definitely amusing. It is a nice change from the other series I am reading. 6 1/2 foot sixteenth century highlanders have to be every girl's fantasy. Corinne definitely recommended the right series for me to read in between books! "
