Book Review: The Dark Highlander

Daegus McKelter broke an oath — he used the sacred stones that allowed him to move through time for personal reasons, to save his twin brother’s life. Now, he is cursed with the spirits of 13 evil druids who want to take him over.

Chloe is an antiquities expert who loves all things old and especially Celtic. Her curiosity gets her in trouble when she snoops in Daegus’ apartment and discovers that he is the thief behind many recent robberies of ancient texts.

This book is the sequel to Kiss of the Highlander, and is very similar in terms of the dominant, larger than life man. This is a specific sort of fantasy for a specific type of romance reader — one who likes possessive, protective men. It doesn’t hold back in any way.

For me, this is a guilty pleasure. I thoroughly enjoyed the ride, and it’s the sort of book I might even pick up again one day.
