Fantastic and captivating till the very end! What a beautiful reading gift Laurin Wittig, is again, offering her readers with HIGHLANDER AVENGED! I know, it will be released in June, but I couldn’t resist the temptation to read it now. It’s the story of a beautiful lass who meets an injured brave warrior. Breathtaking, I love this author’s style of writing, her words flow on the pages. As soon as, I started to read it, I got pull into the story and soon got captivated till the end. It’s her second novel in her amazing Guardians of the Targe Series. I loved her first novel Highlander Betrayed, with Rowan & Nicholas and I’m still in love with her new charismatic characters, Jeanette & Malcolm, she created. Ms. Wittig, is truly a talented storyteller! If you have read her first novel, you will recall the mention of the Highland Targe, an ancient relic guarded by the MacAlpins, which as to be kept safely, so, it doesn’t fall into the English hands. Jeanette was trained from her early years, to be the Guardian, but the Targe, chose Rowan, who has some difficulties with her new responsibility. Feeling not needed by her clan and missing her mother dearly, she decides to visit the wellspring where she and her deceased mother Elspet used to go and pray together. There, she soon discovers the handsome Highland warrior Malcolm MacKenzie who has a wounded arm and in need of a healer. Since, Jeanette wants to help him heal, she proposes a deal with him; a deal he won’t be able to refuse. Together, they will team up and help each other! Will they be able to help her clan? Is Malcolm the protector she needs in her life to be happy? Will love reunite them? I felt their beautiful chemistry filled with tenderness and passion. Great lovable characters, a tight plot, an atmospheric historical setting of the Dunlairig Castle, every element to please fans of Scottish adventures. You will enjoy every minutes of the beautiful adventure of the Highland Targe. You won’t be disappointed! Thank you Ms. Wittig for this skillfully written passionate love story of Jeanette and Malcolm! Next novel might be Scotia’s story! I highly recommend HIGHLANDER AVENGED!
