I have been reading a lot of historical fiction lately - specifically Highlander book series. I have kind of become fascinated with mysteriously sexy men in kilts with Scottish brogue. Highland Persuasion is one of those books that feeds my every fantasy.Set in very early Scottland (time travel is involved so you cannot pick an exact date for the story), Highland Persuasion is the story of Iosbail MacLomain, an immortal wizard who knows exactly what she wants. With her sights set on Alexander Sinclair and claiming what she feels is rightfully hers, she manipulates whoever she needs to in order to get the job done.Iosbail is a strong, independent female not willing to back down to anyone. Alexander (the Highlander of my dreams) has strength of his own, as well as enemies intent on taking him down. The two must work together to not only stay alive but to also overcome the animosity between themselves.This was a quick, fun story. I had not read the previous MacLomain series or Highlander Defiance (Early Years #1), but I had no trouble keeping up with this story. The author did an excellent job of introducing everyone so I knew who was who. After reading this one, though, I did purchase the first book to read as well. Yay for more sexy kilts and Scottish brogue!
