With Every Breath by Lynn Kurland

with every breathSynopsis: With his brother at death`s door, Laird Robert Cameron raced to the McLeod witch. He felt a tingle passing through her door but it was the reluctant woman herself that unnerved him. She was indeed a witch for not only was she comely but the clothes she wore was strange and even stranger she kept asking what the date was.

Sunshine Phillip had stayed in Scotland because she loved it. She did not however like the time period she was pulled into. Her brother in law Jamie had warned her of time gates but she`d passed through her own doorway often enough to believe it was not one or so she thought. When the handsome stranger insisted she was needed, she raced to help thinking it was her family in need, when she realised the truth she still felt compelled to aid him. To say his clan did not take to her was an understatement. After almost being drowned for being a witch, she and Cameron were attacked constantly by his own men. When she made it to the time gate, he stayed back to fight. The last image she`d seen of the man of her dreams was a weapon entering his body.

Back in her own time, she was shocked to find her love in her brother in law`s modern castle conducting business in an expensive suit.  Worse, he did not recognise her. Some digging revealed he`d been adopted eight years ago in a hospital by a wealthy relative. He had amnesia and he was engaged to a socialite. He was rich and had obligations in the lime light, she preferred her garden and the quiet. She was devastated but ready to move on, if only he would stop hanging around her so she could do so.

 

Rating: 3/5

Comments: Entertaining but the ending was drawn out and unnecessary. A common enemy from the past was working to slowly destroy his company and kill her when he got too close. Brought back some characters from other books.
