This fast paced and interesting story is full of Scottish lore, mystery, and danger. This is not a book for those uncomfortable with pushing sexual boundaries. Still, the sexual scenes were primal and passionate. However, the emotional bond between them eventually grows and is further explored as the book continues. Both the hero and villains are very well developed characters as Ms. Boyett-Compo helps us to get to know them. She beautifully relates the many facets of these characters. But it was great to see how well Jamie was respected by the townspeople. He isn't the typically "perfect" hero, but he does fight for what he believes is right and what he loves-not to mention that sexy Scotch Burr. A trait that every woman adores. I think this novel will satisfy any paranormal junkie. Still, the complexity of the characters and paranormal aspects made this an interesting read.
