The myth and magic of the Scottish Highlands comes to life in this fun, historical, fantasy, paranormal romance.
A Determined Lass...
Since Catriona MacCain was a young girl, she has been in love with Torr MacElrath, but he doesn't seem to realize she exists. His recently acquired curse of shapeshifting into a kelpie, or water horse, at night doesn't deter her. Brodie, her older brother and the MacCain chief, is also entangled in the curse. He has abandoned the clan, and in his absence, their mother negotiates a marriage alliance for Cat with the cruel Chief MacPeter in exchange for his protection. After rejecting the atrocious marriage plans and learning what will destroy the curse, Cat runs away to find Torr and gain his help.
A Cursed Highlander...
Torr, trapped by the curse, hates his dark and lonely existence. With her ginger hair and sunny enthusiasm, Cat bursts into his life like a fiery explosion. He remembers her as a wee lass and can hardly believe the beautiful, tempting young woman Cat has grown into at age twenty. He wants to help her escape marriage to a vicious beast, but how will he resist her, especially when she's determined to captivate him and shatter his curse? Falling for her would surely destroy his friendship with Brodie and bring destruction upon their clans.

When three friends—Gavin MacTavish, Torr MacElrath, and Brodie MacCain fight in a battle in which her son is killed, she accuses them of murder and condemns them to live under a curse for the rest of their lives. Against their will, they transform into beasts daily.

My Review - 5 of 5 stars -
This was an interesting tale, full of magic, curses, loyalty, and love. Catriona wanted to help end the curse after reading a note for her brother, one of the cursed. This took her to Torr, the other cursed, who she cared about for a long time. I loved how easily she accepted Torr's Kelpie and went with her feelings. A little trickery moved their relationship faster, and it was amusing that she did not realize at first when it wasn't the potion. Torr tried to resist the attraction as he did not know he could be released from the curse. He was so careful with Catriona and gave into his impulses. Great story.
Dave Gillies brought the characters to life with his wonderful narration. He put emotion into the story, making it that much more enjoyable.
This is my unsolicited review.
