From Bestselling Author Heather Grace Stewart comes a love story that bends time. A Spicy Highland Love Story with Heart, Humor, and Heat Perfect for fans of Christina Lauren, Ali Hazelwood, Outlander, The Seven-Year Slip, Bridget Jones’s Diary, and About Time. He swears. She schemes. Together, they’ll defy centuries. CAL: I cannae believe any of this is happening. The Portal hums beneath my boots at the edge of Loch Ness , prepared to spit me out into the present… but Mills and I are meant to go together! Torn apart at the last moment, I’m thrust into modern-day Aven Valley, heartbroken and hell-bent on finding my way back to her. Christ, I dinnae care what it takes! The Campbell brothers are circling, and I’ll need every ounce of fire—and help from Lila, Cam, and Hamish— to protect what matters most. MILLS: I never imagined building a life with Cal in 1645. Now, separated and preparing to raise our child in a world of clan rivalries and looming threats, I refuse to play the damsel. The MacDowell clan stands with me, but whispers of a massacre at Dunoon and a traitor in our ranks pull me into a web of danger. I’ll protect our family and fight for our love . If the Portal thinks it can keep Cal from finding his way back to us, it’s about to learn what we're made of. Oh, and if one more Highlander tells me childbirth is “nae so bad,” I’ll start swinging my claymore. Expect Level 3 Spice 🌶🌶🌶 Emotionally charged, open-door intimacy.
