Alenna Carstairs’ is hiding from her
life, parts of it anyway. She caught her fiancé the day
before their wedding in bed with another woman. And he
promptly tells her he doesn’t love her anymore. They work in
the same law firm and she really thought she could handle
being there everyday….until she let her emotions get the
better of her and she loses her job. Other than that
everything is just fine.
In order to get away from it all, she
becomes part of a professional/amateur archeological dig at
MacKendrick Castle in Scotland. As she explores she feels as
if she has had personal experience in the dungeons and gets
away as quickly as she can. Alone she returns to the dig
site and does what every archeologist hopes to do-she finds
an artifact, a ring that takes her back in time to 1318 and
right into the path of a giant warhorse.
Tynan of MacBrahin has stored his
feelings and his heart behind a hard outer shell and is
happy with his life…until a woman literally falls into the
path of his warhorse. She isn’t like any woman he’s ever
known in his life. And he has never reacted to another woman
the way he reacts to her. Tynan’s heart isn’t safe from
Alenna as much as he tries to fight it. And fight it he
does, he doesn’t want her cursed as the other women he has
taken to his bed have been…they ended up dead and he
believes it to be his fault.
As Alenna tries to break through
Tynan’s barriers, Tynan is working to find proof that Baron
MacKendrick is a murderer. All of his mistresses end up dead
and now he has his eye on Alenna. Tynan is determined that
Alenna will not be the next to die. He has to find the truth
and tell Alenna how he feels before it’s too late.
Holy moly…if Alenna and Tynan had
fought their feelings for one another much longer I do
believe they would have evaporated into the mist. These
characters are outstanding as are the others in the world of
MacKendrick Castle. Bridge Through the Mist
takes us way back to a world with no electricity, no air
conditioning, no indoor plumbing! The best way to visit
Scotland in 1318 is right here in these pages. Ms. Agnew has
written a beautiful romance and I think it is time well
spent. |
