My Review

Highland Shifter swept me away with everything I love in a time-travel romance: danger, magic, strong family ties, and—of course—a brawny Highland hero in a kilt.

I was initially worried about jumping into book four of the MacCoinnich series, but the author does a fantastic job weaving in enough background that I never felt lost. Simon is the epitome of a swoon-worthy hero—fiercely protective yet deeply loyal. And Helen? She's a smart, independent heroine who holds her own, even when faced with sword fights and the unexpected reality of 16th-century Scotland.

This story has all the feels. There are laugh-out-loud moments, family bonds that tug at your heart, and some absolutely heart-wrenching decisions that had me reaching for the tissues.

If you're a fan of time travel, magic, found family, and Highland romance, this book is a must-read. While it reads well as a standalone, I now fully plan to go back and devour the earlier books in the series.

  3. I've always been intrigued by this author. Which book do you suggest that I start with? Maybe this book is not the best to start with? I usually read paranormal romance/urban fantasy/dystopian books.
