An interesting book, and it kept my interest enough to finish it. Lots of stuff happens, however, it felt superficial and the situations seemed forced. The story is about, Piper, and American who inherits her grandmothers house in Scotland.  She finds a highlander in a part of the house and figured out that "He time traveled to my house and I don't know how to fix it." Piper's epiphany is to invite her friend, Evelyn, from America to help. Let me guess, because,she is an expert in time travel??  Nope, its because she reads time travel romance novels! Piper, Evelyn, and the town bookstore owner, Sam, begin researching time travel books - guess where - in the house library! So, cool, this is exactly the kind of books i have in my own library.In the meantime, what is the highlander doing - just hanging out in a room upstairs for days all by himself. He wants to return to the past and doesn't want to leave the room he arrived in - just in case he is automatically transported back. While it sounds kinda logical, it appears the story has put him on hold for a couple of chapters. The characters are like-able enough but their description and depth is superficial. What drove me crazy about this book was the switching of the voice of the book. The book starts out in Evelyns narrative, then suddenly, with no transition, the next paragraph, its Piper talking, and then its Sam talking and then its a third person narration. Lachlan (the highlander) has very little voice, he is is truly, the lost highlander.
