Twilight descended too quickly. Struan
and Rabbie had yet to return. Was
this a good or bad
sign? How long did a reconnaissance mission take? Kendrick
had grown ever more
vigilant and followed her to the entrance of the cave
whenever she went out
to tend to personal matters.
“You know, I am quite capable of going
beyond those trees and boulders to
attend my needs
without your supervision. I’ll not run off into the night. Where
could I go when I
don’t know where I am?” She goaded him, but could not stop
herself.
He gazed at a point beyond her shoulder
with an implacable face, and then
turned his dark,
penetrating eyes on her. She flinched slightly, but covered it with
a thrust of her chin
and returned his stare. He wouldn’t best her in this staring
contest, no matter
how formidable his expressions.
As usual, she broke first, “Are you
concerned for Struan and Rabbie? Should
they have returned by
now?”
He scanned her hair, her face, settling
on her lips a bit longer, and then his
eyes raked down her
body. His scrutiny did not reveal any of the earlier humor
she’d detected. Why
did he feel the need to intimidate her with his stern regard or
more likely, lustful
appraisal? She squared her shoulders, readying for another
onslaught of intimidation.
His expression suggested he didn’t miss
her challenge, which only seemed
to
pique his interest further.
Blurb:
On a windswept cliff above San Francisco Bay Scotland
Laird Kendrick MacLean and his men, escaping a recent skirmish
with their worst nemeses, clan Cameron and their Sassenach allies, are shocked
to find an injured, unprotected female in their path. How could she not know
her kin and how had she landed in the middle of the wilderness alone? His men
suspect she's a spy or a witch. Still, Kendrick will not abandon an injured
woman, even if she speaks unusually accented English, and her name is Cameron.
Will he ransom her to others or will their closed hearts open to each other?
Although he questions her every utterance, this feisty, outspoken woman
inflames his desire like no other.

After more than
twenty years writing and delivering management and other training programs for
modest-sized to Fortune Five Hundred companies, and ten years developing
community crisis-intervention training programs, Aleigha turned her writing
efforts to her first loves, fiction, and poetry. Her poetry has appeared
in numerous anthologies and university presses over the past few decades. Following a difficult period in her life, she
discovered solace in romance novels that inspired her to write in this
genre. As she says, "who doesn't desire a guaranteed
happy-ever-after scenario?" Always interested in the concept of
time-travel, she knew her first few stories would follow that theme.
When not writing,
her trusty four-legged companion/helper, Strider, accompanies her on sunset
walks along the shore. During these quiet walks under an expansive sky, with
the whoosh of waves across the sand and her gaze drifting over the rolling sea,
her best glimmers of inspiration come to mind. Following the recent
discovery of distant Scottish ancestors, she embarked on a trip to the Highlands . Although she had already developed the
characters for Finding My Highlander,
her trip to the Highlands enriched the
characters and enhanced the story direction. This is her first full-length
romance novel. Aleigha is working on a prequel to Finding My Highlander, and another time-travel novel set in a later
period.

What I love most about time travel novels is the perspective. Having someone from today's world going back to times when things were probably simpler and much less complicated is always fun to read about!
