Thirty Nights With a Highland Husband

Scottish warrior Connor MacKiernan has vowed never to marry. As a descendant of a fae prince, he has also vowed to protect the women of his family. In order to protect his sister, Connor must marry. Using faerie magic, Connor travels from Scotland, 1272 to Denver Colorado, 2007 to find his bride. Caitlyn Coryell is having a wretched day. After finding her fiancé with another woman, she goes home to lick her wounds. Standing in front of the mirror wearing nothing but an antique pendant and what was to have been her honeymoon lingerie, Caitlyn is stunned when a man appears begging for her help. Connor asks Caitlyn to return with him to his time, marry him and then return home. Though the plan sounds simple enough, reality is anything but simple. The wedding is delayed, someone is trying to kill Caitlyn and to really complicate matters, Caitlyn is falling in love with Connor. Melissa Mayhue's Thirty Nights with a Highland Husband is enchanting. Connor is totally pant worthy and Caitlyn is so deserving of his love. Thirty Nights with a Highland Husband has a suspenseful plot and an unlikely villain. The secondary characters tickled my fancy and I am begging for books for each of Caitlyn's brothers. Honor, love, and faerie magic make Thirty Nights with a Highland Husband captivating! Annmarie Reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed

Wonderful!

Just one of those wonderful books you can't put down. Absolutely loved the story!!! Didn't want it to end!

A new romance author !!!

Like they said before me, a keeper, will definitely buy other books from this author. The story is well written, interesting, has romance, time travel, frustrated alpha male, stubborn female, a great plot line, what else could I ask for!! If you are looking for new romance author, this is a very good one.

Nice

Well...I'm not going to explain the book because you can read the previous reviews and the back cover to find out what this book is about. I am, however, going to review/critic the book. As a first time reader of Ms. Mayhue I didn't know what to expect. I just read the back, remembering how I enjoyed Karen Marie Moning's highlander/travel through time series, and thought "why not?". At first, when I read the prolouge, I thought it was going to be one of those super cheezy romances with too much "I love you" and not enough depth to plot or characters. Boy was I wrong...the heroin in this story often reminded me of the witty, funny, yet strange females that Moning weaves in her books. And of course, the hero in this book reminded me of the hot, intellegent, yet overprotective men in Moning's books as well. I would have ALMOST considered it a rewritten/spinoff from Moning's Highlander series, if Mayhue hadn't added a Fae Legend to the story. Moning's Highlander Series followers would DEFINITELY enjoy this book, especially since that series is either on hold or ended. Ms. Mayhue did a wonderful job weaving an incredible but energetic plot with characters who have depth--a trait that is sadly missing from so many romance novels written today. Ms. Mayhue seems to have quite a career ahead and I would almost say that she is the next Moning....if Moning wasn't still writing.

A KEEPER!!

Be careful when you start this book because you will not be able to put it down! I love the main characters Caitlyn and Connor. Caitlyn has just the right amount of spunk to hold her own with a Highland warrior. Connor is yummy, a strong alpha with a heart. The story pulls you on as you worry and wonder how these two will find their happy ending when it seems as if everything and everyone is conspiring to keep them apart. When you close this book, I promise it will be with a smile on your face. Ms. Mayhue is an author to watch. I can't wait for October when the next book in the series, HIGHLAND GUARDIAN, is released.
