He was a mighty Scottish warrior who lived in a world bound by ancient laws and timeless magic. But no immortal powers could prepare the laird of Castle Brodie for the lovely accursed lass who stood before him. A terrible trick of fate had sent her 700 years back in time and into his private chamber to tempt him with her beauty - and seduce him with a desire he could never fulfill. For this woman he burned to possess was also the woman he had foresworn to destroy.
A Woman Caught in the Mists of Time
When Lisa felt the earth move under her feet, the fiercely independent 21st-century woman never dreamed she was falling...into another century. But the powerful, naked warrior who stood glaring down at her was only too real...and too dangerously arousing. Irresistibly handsome he might be, but Lisa had no intention of remaining in this savage land torn by treachery and war. How could she know that her seductive captor had other plans for her...plans that would save her from a tragic fate? Or that this man who had long ago forsaken love would defy time itself to claim her for his own....
Phil Gigante's smooth and sexy Scots brogue is so well done that listeners may think Sean Connery himself is delivering this time-travel tale. Lisa Stone, whose life in modern times is tragically marred, finds herself magically sent back 700 years to medieval Scotland. She lands at the feet of the naked and gorgeous Laird "Sin" Brodie. Gigante moves between the Scots characters with finesse and minute differentiation that make each character distinct and interesting. Although his rendition of Lisa is the weakest of the characterizations, her high-pitched, somewhat plaintive tone does not detract from the overall positive experience created by Gigante. Add a puckish fairy and some hot sex, and you have a winning combination. A.C.P. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
