A Dance Through Time
1996
Scotland, 1311. James MacLeod was the most respected—-and feared—-laird in all of Scotland. He loved his men like brothers and his land with a passion. And he allowed no women to cross the threshold of his keep... New York City, 1996. With an indifferent fiancé and a stalled writing career, Elizabeth Smith found passion and adventure only in the unpublished romance novels that she wrote. Until a Scottish hero began calling to her... Elizabeth longed for the man of her dreams. But she knew she was overworked when she began hearing his voice—-when she was awake. To clear her mind, she took a walk in Gramercy Park. She dozed off on a bench—-and woke up in a lush forest in fourteenth-century Scotland. A forest surrounding the castle of James MacLeod, an arrogant and handsome lord with a very familiar voice. Elizabeth would turn his ordered world upside-down and go where no woman had ever gone before: straight into his heart...

Until he sees a woman who touches his heart and stirs his soul...and makes him believe love might be possible again after all. For Madelyn Phillips, Scotland is the land of dreams, filled with magic, romance, and handsome Highland lords. Unfortunately, the reality of her dream vacation is no car, no luggage, and a pesky ex-fiancé determined to shadow her every move. She thinks her dreaming is in vain until she sees a man standing on a windswept moor, a Highlander full of secrets and longing, and knows she has seen her destiny. But the past isn't through with either of them, and it will take all the love both of them possess to make their dreams come true.

Every Day of My Life
2024
From
New York Times
bestselling author Lynn Kurland comes the enchanting tale of a holiday that goes completely sideways and love found in the most unlikely of places . . .
Oliver Phillips can’t think of a worse place for a holiday than Scotland, land of midges, rain, and Highlanders with swords. His freedom from his enforced seclusion hinges on three things: avoiding very sharp Claymores used by those Highlanders, completing a program of self-care perfectly curated to refresh and restore his ability to do serious damage to the friends who’ve sent him on his unwanted holiday, and, most importantly, avoiding any and all gates through time that might lead him to encountering any possible maidens in Renaissance distress who might be in need of a rescue. But two out of three isn’t bad . . . right? Mairead leads a Cinderella-like existence despite being the oldest daughter of the laird of the clan MacLeod. When she miraculously finds a book about a saucy kitchen maid and the Duke who adores her, she’s convinced she has the key to escaping her own terrible straits. Her problem? She only has the first half of the curiously written manuscript and she’s convinced the solution lies in the remainder of the missing tale. And when a man who looks just like the gallant nobleman on its cover walks out of the magical forest near her home, she knows she’s found the one person who can show her how to have a different life entirely . . . But sometimes the past and the future become intertwined in unpredictable ways and the best-laid plans, even on holiday in Scotland, can go awry, leaving two souls wondering just how far they’ll have to bend time to have their own happily ever after . . .
