I HOPE YOU’VE ENJOYED this first installment in my new time travel series, Something About a Highlander. I promised a surprise for those readers who’ve also read my Victorian Historical Romance series, Questions for a Highlander, and I hope it was enjoyed by you all. Tristram MacKintosh was depicted as a wee lad in the series, son of Richard and Abby from The Perfect Question, book four in the series. Hazel/Hazy as a little girl in book six, A Question Worth Asking. Hannah is Kitty’s daughter from A Question of Trust, book two. The other members of the MacKintosh family I reference are other main characters of that series about the ten brothers and single sister of the clan. Having such a ready and established family to draw characters from made building the past easy.
Donell has become a fan favorite, there’s no way I could leave him out of this. Having completed his previous mission in the Laird For All Time series, he’s back with a new plan to save the future for all mankind...with more of a direct approach this time around that I hope you appreciate.
The setting of this book was an easy for one for me to choose. I’ve longed to use the time period for years. It offers a wealth of history and beauty to draw on. The fashions of the Edwardian Era are a personal favorite of mine. But it is the tragedy that occurred in April of 1912 that has drawn me to the time the most. From a young age, I’ve always been intrigued and filled with sadness by story of the Titanic and its sinking. By the people who died on it and the ones who survived. Books — both fiction and non — depict each detail so clearly, you can almost see it. The exhibition of items salvaged from the wreckage of the Titanic bring it all to life, yet settle the sorrow for those lost deeper in my heart.
Though Henry and Tris were saved from death aboard the ship in this book, I didn’t get a chance to truly describe it as much as I would like. Future installments in this series will give me that chance at long last! I hope I’ve intrigued you enough to continue on with the series!
Lastly, please remember while success for me personally is measured in bringing you joy, a moment of emotion, and escape from the hectic thing that is life, it is also measured by the quality and quantity of the reviews my books receive. They don’t just help other readers decide to spend their time and money on a book, they help me, too. I read each one that is posted. I take what you say to heart and use it to improve and grow.
If you would take a few minutes of your time to leave a review, I’d be grateful.
All the best,
Angeline
