Heavy sigh….wipes tears away from face….wow!I am at a loss for words to describe how much I loved Kiss of the Highlander. I was captivated from the first page and I literally did not put the book down until I finished it. Ms. Moning, I want my very own Highlander!The story was beautiful. It was hot, steamy, romantic, and magical. Our heroine Gwen, was on a bus tour of Scotland. She decides to go for a hike. Her bag falls and as she goes to retrieve it, she also falls and lands on top of an enchanted Highlander. 500 year old curse broken, he awakens to find Gwen in a compromising position on top of him. What a great introduction to our Highlander Drustan MacKeltar. (For those of you that have read the Fever series, yes, he is a MacKeltar).So there you have it, a 21st century girl meets 16th century Scot. At first, you sympathize with Drustan. Everything is new and strange to him. But he is endearing, he is stubborn, he is handsome and a mathematical genius. He is strangely attired. He carries a lot of weapons. He is strangely attracted to Gwen. Gwen is a very likeable heroine. She is strong, smart, adaptable, and beautiful. Oh, did I mention that she was a virgin? There is also a time travel aspect to this story. Gwen is sent back in time where she needs to change a series of events that cause Drustan to be cursed. Kiss of the Highlander is one of those books that brought out a whole range of emotions in me....I laughed, I cried, I sighed...I ran to the library to get the next book....
