Editorial reviews

In part two of The MacCoinnich Time Travel Trilogy evil witch Grainna seeks a virginal druid's blood in order to consolidate her powers. Eldest MacCoinnich daughter Myra fits the bill, and the family sends her into hiding 500 years hence. Myra is ill-prepared for life in 21st-century California, and when sexy but skeptical cop Todd Blakeley comes to the aide of the confused druid, romance is afoot. Unfortunately, Todd can't believe Myra's story, and when it's time for her to travel home, she might just take his heart with her. Striking Scotsman David Monteath delivers a sizzling send-up of Catherine Bybee's romance. A fetching voice in his own right, the versatile actor convincingly portrays this eclectic cast of medieval maidens and contemporary Californians.

Publisher's summary

Myra, a medieval virgin druidess, flees five hundred years into the future in order to escape death at the hands of a cursed witch, landing in the arms of a handsome but cynical twenty-first century cop.

Officer Todd Blakely knows Myra is hiding something, but he can't resist her innocent charms. Destiny throws them both into a world of intrigue and mysticism. Can Todd be the true white knight she needs? Or will magic and the winds of time tear them apart?

Catherine Bybee is Awesome

It has been a few years since I've read Catherine Bybee's stories in print. I was happy to see this series available in Audible Escapes as it is a series that I had missed. She is masterful with her characters... especially strong women match with challenging men. I'm a scientist but historical time travel romance is a love of mine and being able to listen as I commute is truly a pleasure that brightens my days. The narrator is wonderful with his use of various voices. The tone of his voice is pleasing and not grating as some are. There have been books I thought I'd really like but listening for just a few minutes I knew it would be torture to continue. This is certainly not true of this narrator.

Great Highlander Series - Modern Meets Medieval

This is book 2 in a series. Audible isn't showing the series properly and book 4 came out first and confused many buyers which is a shame as I'm sure that affected the love of these stories to unexpectedly plop late into the series, so the books come in this order.

#1 Binding Vows
#2 Silent Vows
#3 Redeeming Vows
#4 Highland Shifter
#5 Highland Protector (not out in Audiobook yet)

This is a GREAT series, funny, serious, lots of twists and turns, and parts will make you cry. Love the books. AND the narration by David Monteath is PERFECT and frankly that alone is worth the listen. It's great to hear a Scottish man read for the male characters for a change as it really adds to those characters in an addictive sexy way. He's now one of my favorite "readers" (and I've heard many).

The books blend time travel, history, battles, humor, suspense, magick and romance (and some sex) in just the right blend. Each book picks up pretty much where the previous book leaves off and you'll want to go through the next all as soon as each one. It's more a tale of all these great characters, so it's a great family tale not just a romance based on "where can we insert plenty of sex scenes".

While some argue there's enough explanation in each to have them stand alone, since characters' histories and actions span multiple books, do yourself a favor and read them in order!!

Love these books, hope this series continues on and on....

Todd and Myra

Great book, but I don’t know what it is but I hate the relationship between Todd and Myra. I found myself wanting to fast forward through any of the parts involving them but I listened to the whole book to hear about another blossoming relationship. There’s another series where the last book was disappointing and I think it’s the princess/cop relationship. Nothing against cops at all but the story involving this type of relationship bugs me for some reason.

Engaging

Loved this book in the series! I can hardly wait to progress through the other books in the series! The narrator has a delightful talent with a Scottish brogue.

I'm hooked; I want to know how this ends. I love Simon and how he is embracing his new life and family.
