Once again Karen Moning doesn't dissapoint with this one. For those 16th century Highlander fans out there this is the story of Dageus MacKeltar, mighty warrior & twin brother to Drustan. Possessed by the souls of thirteen evil Druids, Daegus is fighting a losing battle to keep his one good conscience intact. When Chloe Zanders enters his world with her curious nature, Daegus is drawn to her & sparks fly! Daegus MacKelatar takes tall dark and handsome to a whole new level! This one in the Highlander series is not to be missed.

"Great Read"

I am a lover of Karen Marie Monings highlander books, and the dark highlander is no exception.

This story is a page turner and you will end up reading the whole book without putting it down before you realise it.

I would definately reccommend that if you love the scots, druids, faery, and a awesome love story to boot this grab this book and enjoy.

A sixteenth-century Scot trapped between worlds, he is fighting a losing battle with the thirteen Druids who possess his soul, dooming him to an eternity of sexual pursuit. When Chloe Zanders, student of antiquities, is drawn into his world, she finds the insatiable alpha male an irresistible lure.Before long, she is caught up in an ancient prophecy that will sweep her back into time to medieval Scotland. Plunged into a world of timeless magic and dark seduction, she will soon face the challenge of a lifetime: fighting thirteen evil spirits for the heart of one irresistible man….

Review

"Darker, sexier and more serious than Moning's previous time-travel romances, this tall tale is every bit as entertaining. A Highlander from the 16th-century versed in both ancient Druid magic and the many ways in which to love a woman, Daegus MacKeltar is an enchanting hero as well as his own worst enemy. At the end of Moning's previous book, To Kiss a Highlander, Daegus used his Druid powers to travel back in time and save his twin brother, Drustan, who would have otherwise perished in a fire, but in doing so, he released the spirits of 13 evil Druids, who now reside inside him. In his search for age-old texts that may hold the key to re-imprisoning the spirits, Daegus meets ever-curious Chloe Zanders, a Manhattan antiquities lover. When she accidentally stumbles upon his collection of "borrowed" texts, Daegus holds her captive, which leads to a number of hilarious exchanges and heady encounters. The tension, sexual and otherwise, hits a boiling point when the two travel to Scotland to face Daegus's demons. Chloe's cheery disposition is a perfect foil for Daegus's brooding sensuality, and their clever banter leavens the weighty plot line. This wild, imaginative romp takes readers on an exhilarating ride through time and space." Publishers Weekly
