Highlander's Curse

February 14, 2011
In her eighth Daughters of the Glen paranormal historical romance (after Healing the Highlander), Mayhue hurls her hunky 14th-century Scottish warrior Colin MacAlister again and again into the amatory breach, starting with his exceptionally naked appearance in the bed of tough-talking present-day archeologist Abigail Porter. Both descended from the Fae, Colin and Abby suffer from donnee, the "great wanting" that comes from being separated from one's soul mate. Together they travel back to the eve of Robert the Bruce's great battle at Methven, becoming closer as menacing Nuadian Fae Flynn O'Dannan poses as Abby's sponsor and lusts after her Fae-touched blood. Time after time, Mayhue brings Colin, Abby, and her readers tantalizingly close to emotional satisfaction until Abby, struggling to choose between hot tubs and drafty castles, finally realizes there are things "more important than toilet paper."
