4.5 stars!Ann Gimpel has done it again. She has created another world with interesting characters you not only want to know more about but also want to continue to read future stories featuring them as well as the world. Gimpel's contemporary settings are always interesting - our world with a little something extra. She usually creates a new mythos for her paranormal beings, and this tale is no exception. This time Gimpel puts her own spin on dragon shifters and deftly incorporates the occasional god and goddess of different pantheons into the plot. This is not your run-of-the-mill dragon shifter.Filled with humor, To Love a Highland Dragon, quickly draws the reader in and doesn't let go until the last scene. The chemistry between 600+ year old Lachlan and modern day Maggie sizzles. Lachlan's struggles to understand and fit into the modern world are adorable, endearing, and make him even more sexy.This story is a little Rip Van Winkle, a little time travel, some magic, a lot of romance, a little fantasy, and a whole lot of fun. This is a good introduction to this new series, and I can't wait for book two to come out to see how Maggie, Lachlan, and Kheladin take care of the mess the villains have created. Who is Kheladin? You'll have to read it to find out.Ann Gimpel has quickly become a favorite author of mine.
