What's the plot??? Isn't one..The characters are sketchily written at best. She's at first somewhat likable, from what little info there is. Then suddenly she has a while new personality. And for someone who's from the 21et century and plunged into ancient Scotland you hear no thoughts, nothing.. As if she's robotic and this sort of thing is everyday for her.The worst part IMO is the Scotsman. He's sketchily written as well all you get to know make him seem bipolar well not even (and yes I know many who are and this is not said as negative it's said as describing who he's written to be character wise)  and a super jealous psychopath who just this side of rapes the virgin-ly main character of the story. Which was just horrible and was hard to get through the book as that was. The guy is only shown as either super angry and jealous to the point of murder or only a little less angry although he's described by second characters call kind although there is no kindness whatsoever. NONE. And no courting or sweetness. Just anger jealousy and murderous rage. When suddenly the girl is "in love" although neither know ONE thing about the other.. And so in love she immediately forgives the almost rape she happily marries him and who at the first of the book was a woman from the 21st century and took to no man bossing her.. Her new husband is still having fits of rage and jealousy even though no other men are around. At the point in the book a day after they're married he is saying he's going to tattoo her to show Allen she Belongs to him and no other men can touch her I had to put the book down. It's just too much. It's now even a sweet sort of jealousy, protective like. It's all disturbing. Now mind you he's meant to be the romantic hero not the villain. The villain seems so much better a person even though the author tries to describe him as evil. And that word alone is all the description he gets. One word. This author sucks. All characters are described so thin and vague and you keep waiting to understand the plot and learn about the characters so you can like them, or not. But it's just horrible. How this was published.. esp with all the spelling and grammatical errors not to mention the author must not have researched Scottish brogue or speech or even that time at all as the "hero" barely speaks like a Scotsman and most often like an American. Just as the 21st century female of the book does.. FrownI saw this book recommended on good reads in an actual thread about books meant for a young audience. A teen audience and most on the thread weren't even 16. I'd hate for them to have read this horrible book. The rape scene that makes the heroine fall in love with the "hero" alone made it the worst book I think I've ever read. So not worth your time or money.
