"An exciting paranormal romantic suspense romance"
Toni MacNally and her five friends (David, Kevin, Ryan,
Gina, and Thayer) convert a dilapidated Scottish Castle
into a tourist attraction using reenactments of stories of
love and lore. As Toni and the others perform for a crowd
of visitors, a big hunk in kilt shouts for the leader of
this charade to face him. Laird Bruce MacNiall apparently
has arrived. Bruce informs the sextet that his castle was not for
leasing and they were conned, but allows them to at least
recoup their costs by continuing their performance for now.
An ex-cop Bruce investigates a series of murders in which
the culprit dumps the corpses on his land. Toni has weird
dreams in which she sees through the eyes of the serial
killer, but also feels a strange connection to Bruce. As
she falls in love with the Laird of the castle, Toni
wonders if he is the killer. Bruce shares her feelings of
love and wants to keep Toni safe even at the risk of his
life. This is an exciting paranormal romantic suspense romance
that stars two wonderful lead characters and several fine
support players especially the troupe members. Readers will
agree with Toni and Gina questioning why Bruce suddenly
appears after their show begins to draw crowds (his travel
excuse with modern communication seems lame). Still fans
will enjoy this tense thriller as Toni struggles between
visions that make her fear Bruce and a love for him that
makes her fear herself. Heather Graham once again shows why
she is a strong presence within the genre. Reviewed by Harriet Klausner
