Spell of the Highlander
Powerful. Sensual. Seductive. He is all that is shamelessly erotic in a man. In her sexiest Highlander novel yet, New York Times bestselling author Karen Moning stirs up a sizzling brew of ancient
mystery and modern passion as she brings together a devilishly handsome
Celtic warrior trapped in time . . . and the woman who’s about to pay
the ultimate price for freeing him. Age-old secrets haunt them. Deadly
danger and irresistible desire shadow their every move. It’s a
relationship for the ages. And all that separates them is a mere
thirteen hundred years. . . .
Jessi St. James has got to get a
life. Too many hours studying ancient artifacts has given the
hardworking archaeology student a bad case of sex on the brain. So she
figures she must be dreaming when she spies a gorgeous half-naked man
staring out at her from inside the silvery glass of an ancient mirror.
But when a split-second decision saves her from a terrifying attempt on
her life, Jessi suddenly finds herself confronting six and a half feet
of smoldering, insatiable alpha male.
Heir to the arcane magic
of his Druid ancestors, eleven centuries ago Cian MacKeltar was trapped
inside the Dark Glass, one of four coveted Unseelie Hallows, objects of
unspeakable power. When the Dark Glass is stolen, an ancient enemy will
stop at nothing to reclaim it, destroying everything in his
path–including the one woman who may just hold the key to breaking the
ninth-century Highlander’s dark spell. For Jessi, the muscle-bound sex
god in the mirror is not only tantalizingly real, he’s offering his
protection–from exactly what, Jessi doesn’t know. And all he wants in
exchange is the exquisite pleasure of sharing her bed.
Yet even
as Cian’s insatiable hunger begins to work its dark magic on Jessi, his
ancient enemy is about to obtain the final and most dangerous of the
Unseelie Hallows–and the ninth-century Highlander must stop him from
getting it. Nothing less than the very fabric of the universe and two
passionately entwined lives are at stake–as Cian and Jessi fight to
claim the kind of love that comes along but once in an ice age. . . .
