| Amelia Tucker may be too tall, too strong and just too masculine but she is a damn good soldier. Out of the Army, she is currently working as a professional bodyguard and takes that job seriously even when the client does not. Tuck’s latest assignment is to guard Jenny Maxwell. Jenny is the daughter of a multi-millionaire and had been receiving kidnapping threats. Despite that, Jenny is determined to see all of Scotland and Tuck is along for the ride to make sure Jenny stayed safe. When the bad guys make their move, instead of saving the day, Tuck falls into a wishing well and is transported back to the 16th century. Tuck is determined to get back to Jenny and finish the job but she’s found the one place where she feels like she belongs. Can she really leave that? Not to mention the sexy highlander that makes her feel petite, feminine and truly wanted for the first time in her life.
I really like this one. The characters were great and the story was so interesting and well written I didn’t want to put the book down. Just about everyone will be able to relate to Tuck. You may not be too tall or strong but we have all felt as though we didn’t fit at some point. When Tuck finally finds a place to belong you, feel her joy and her struggle with doing her duty. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the relationship that develops. I rated this very sensual because there are a couple fairly explicit scenes but they don’t overshadow the story at all. The story is about the romance not the sex... and what a great romance it was. I can’t wait for the sequel!!
