Sadie’s Highlander – expected publication date September 12th, 2017
Cover blurb:
The Highland Protector series brings to life four mouthwatering Celtic brothers in twenty-first-century North Carolina—where the lasses are anything but tamed.
Highland warrior Alec MacDara and his brothers traveled forward in time to protect the sacred Heartsone. Their cover? Owners and operators of a theme park called Highland Life and Legends. As the chairman, Alec has been fending off requests to film at the breathtaking property. It’s only because of the charming correspondence from an enterprising production assistant that he agrees to a meeting at all. That’s when Alec meets a woman whose lush curves make him forget, for the first time, all about tenth-century Scotland.
A lowly assistant for her sister’s motion picture company, wannabe screenwriter Sadie Williams is shocked when Alec agrees to let them film at the park upon one condition: that she report to him daily. Sadie’s sister always told her that their parents only adopted her because they felt sorry for the ugly little stray. But Alec looks at Sadie like she’s the most tempting creature in the world. And with his gleaming, musclebound body stripped down to nothing but a hip-hugging kilt and boots, Alec clearly knows a little something about temptation.

One thing savvy readers of this blog will learn that I’m a very shallow person and sometimes yes, I am attracted solely by appearance. Yes, I am one of those…when it comes to book covers! Maeve is a new author for me but one of my favorite romance genres is men in kilts, so when I saw this cover, my finger could not hit the request button on Netgalley quick enough!!
The first thing I will say about this book is I love me some Alec! There is nothing like a strong, protective Highlander wearing a kilt to enthrall a girl, even if he is in modern day North Carolina and not the highlands of yore. And Sadie is definitely interested which is good because I would have been really worried if she wasn’t…
There are a lot of great moments between them and the other characters, and I always love NICE yet sometimes irritating, interfering families, not a raving lunatic bitch of a sister. (Was that mean? Read it, and I’m quite sure you will end up agreeing with me on her!) Miss Martha and Dwyn are especially entertaining, and Harold…well, you readers that know me will understand why I liked him so much!
I can’t wait for the next book in the series…who will be the next hot MacDara to fall?
