Highland Fling Jennifer LaBrecque

Dr. Kate Wexford felt an incredible attraction to a portrait she found in the Sex through the Ages traveling museum exhibit. Kate couldn’t describe why she was drawn toward Darach MacTavish, Laird of Glenagan, but on the final night of the exhibit, went to see the painting one last time and found herself naked in Darach’s bed. Darach don’t fully understand how the naked girl ended up in his bed, but when she claimed that she was was from the future, he wondered what to do with the crazy woman. Kate knows that Darach will die soon and she needs to use all her skills to save Darach’s life, even if it meant changing history.

The second time travel Blaze left me confused as this story is completely independent from the first one, except for the museum exhibit. It didn’t deal with the open issues from the first story, which I had expected. On the other hand, if look at this story as a stand alone title, it's extremely well done. The best parts of the story are where Darach returned to the present with Kate and learned about life in the twenty-first century. All in all, I really enjoyed this story and if you’re into Scottish Lairds, I think you’ll enjoy it too.

Bottom line: A very good book
