superb historical romantic fantasy

In 1653 he was in a deep sleep; finally in 1819 Keelan awakens. His only objectives are to avenge the murder of his mother killed by cruel Lord Chetfield and to find the treasure that led to his mom's murder. When he reaches the Chetfield estate, the owner's thugs batter him. Healer Charity touches Keelan enabling him to recover rather quickly. However, she hides her skill from her employer working as a maid while searching for the treasure that Keelan seeks. Keelan persuades Chetfield that he is a miracle healer with the proof being his own recuperation. As Charity and Keelan find the treasure, Chetfield's staff, they find a greater prize, love, but must flee before their foe destroys them. Readers will appreciate Lois Greiman's latest historical romantic fantasy (see TAMING THE BARBARIAN) as Keelan makes the tale with his asides starting with his observation that it is "Colder than a sea witch's arse". He brings both seriousness and levity to the fine tale. Charity is his perfect foil and partner as they team up to find the treasure and thwart the evil Chetfield. Fans will enjoy Ms. Greiman's whimsical entertaining tale of redemption through love not revenge. Harriet Klausner

Another Great Book from Lois Grieman

Sharp edges of reality mix with the undefined shadows of the mystical to create an engaging world of hidden secrets and enduring love in Bewitching the Highlander by Lois Greiman. Things are not always as they seem as time stretches across boundaries and dreams foretell of journeys to the future. It is a story of possibility, choice, and predictions come true. Severely wounded, and carrying secrets from his past, Keelan finds himself in the care of Charity, a bewitching woman with secrets of her own. Each on their own separate journey they must join forces against a dark and ancient power determined to keep what they both desire. When powers collide, the story explodes into a myriad of activity. Riveting action scenes combine with wonderfully seductive moments of passion to produce a compelling, and often surprising, story. Ms. Greiman provides an insightful peek into the give and take of human desire; letting go of separate dreams to join together in a single journey. She sets a mood that is both believable and transcendent of an earth-bound world, keeping the reader entranced in the ethereal. The dialogue is intelligent, pithy and a joy to read. Delightful sparring and well-placed wagers erupt into an intense romance that sizzles with lust and enduring love.
