~Warrior's Redemption by Melissa Mayhue~

*Lets take a moment of silence as this will be my final Highlander review of the year*

(LOL......Thank heavens there is less than FOUR days left in this year)

Now without further ado......

MALCOLM MACDOWYLT sees himself a failed warrior, haunted by the death of the woman he married to become laird of Clan MacGahan. Neither his Viking heritage nor his claim to descend from Norse gods can restore his confidence in his ability to protect his people. His sister is held captive, her life in jeopardy, and his Magically powerful half brother wants him dead. The last thing he needs is more responsibility, but that’s exactly what he gets when his Faerie mother-in-law arrives seeking justice for her daughter in the form of an enticing woman from seven hundred years in the future.

DANIELLE DEARMON has waited fifteen years to discover the life she is supposed to live. She just never dreamed she’d end up in the thirteenth century with a handsome Scot bent on saving everyone but himself. With the lives of those most dear to him hanging in the balance, Malcolm sets out to battle a powerful evil magic, only to learn that the redemption he seeks exists in the arms of the woman he loves.

I was extremely happy when I saw that Melissa had given Malcolm his own book. First introduced in A Highlander's Homecoming, I really thought there was so much more to the guy and WOW did she give it!

I loved the introduction of all the new characters and the venture into the Viking heritage. All the different twist and turns I swear I hated one person only to like him in the end and hate the other. AWESOME!

Malcolm is such a strong willed and loyal character you can't help but love him (plus "HIGHLANDER HOTNESS").....heck the man believes he is the reason his wife died....even though.......well ummm yeah.

Then there's Danielle, how cool is she??? Always believing even when people tell her just to give up. Such a real trooper. No wonder the Fairy Queen listened to her called.

I must say she did have her stubborn-selfish streak, but she got over herself.

I personally can't wait until then next book....I mean even though there's been nine books in the series, Melissa makes sure each book..

          Is unforgettable....Can stand on its OWN....And is AMAZING!!!!

Warrior's Redemption was released December 27,2011

So we're doing it the old fashion way...

Please leave a comment with you name and email...

Dude this is worst than snow down your undies!!!

Somebody bring me more Chocolate chip cookies....LOL

(Man and I had it all set where all you had to do was click enter...wholly boogers...That's it next time you're all jumping through FIRE!)

~Sex, Lies and Mistletoe~

Undercover DEA agent Caleb Black is home for the holidays—possibly to bust his own father.  But maybe Caleb’s con-man dad isn’t the one running drugs through the small town of Black Oak. Maybe it’s the green-eyed goddess who runs the New Age shop and has Caleb under her sultry spell.

Pandora Easton saved the family store with two words: sex sells. And her delectable aphrodisiacs really work, as she’s proven with notorious bad boy Caleb again and again and again. Little does she guess that, in the end, her most potent potion will be the truth….

I have to say for starters...it is so nice not being stuck in the middle seat on an airplane while reading another book by Tawny....because I really don't think I could keep myself in check as well as before.......To see that review click here.


I enjoyed Pandora, she was by far my favorite character. I loved how she stood her ground....even when the town gossiped.Very strong willed...although in the beginning really in need of self confidence.
Caleb is just.....HOT....HOT....HOT....did I say HOT????
So what if the whole town thinks he's a "Bad Boy", who cares if he has no job...he's got "Magic Hands."
The story was a nice read.....The interaction between the main characters totally clicked....at times intense....then mind blowing with his boots on (LOL).
Pandora's back story plays so well into the the main story as a whole right down to the climax.
Then what Caleb did for Pandora.....guess he has busted that "Bad Boy" image......


The  only question I really had at the end of the book was.....
Where's my Chocolate Cake????
(Feel free to have Hunter deliver it....LOL)

~Sins of the Highlander~

Coming out January 1, 2012

Even with her gift of the Sight, never had Elspeth Stewart imagined her wedding would be interrupted by a darkhaired stranger charging in on a black stallion, scooping her into his arms, and carrying her off across the wild Scottish highlands. With two clans against them burning for battle, they must find a way to join together–body, breath, and soul. Or both will be made to pay for the Sins of the Highlander.

Ahhhhh Yes!!!! Another Highlander story :0)

Hell bent on revenge and out to rectify the death of his wife, I would have to say that "Mad Rob" did an excellent job at it!

Not too many men will go to that extreme!

As for our poor helpless noble kidnapped woman....

At times I really wanted to smack Elspeth, but she did surprise me in the end. I actually kind of liked her (wow..that's a first...lol)

Now the villain,Lachlan Drummond....wow!

What an evil (insert BAD WORD).  

I found this story wonderful...full of action...love ...betrayal and of course a highlander ending.

Well written characters with strong attitudes and honor among family gives the reader a feeling that they're right there watching the story unfold.

Totally AMAZING.

It would be a great read to start anyone's New Year off.
