Kathleen O'Donnell, a Cleveland, Ohio judge, is about to be married in the same church where her grandparents were married sixty years before. Her fiancé made all the arrangements for the "wedding of her dreams," and surprised her with this trip to a tiny, isolated village on the northern coast of Ireland. Her dream turns into a nightmare, however, when a crazy, sword-wielding shepherd kidnaps the bride.
It is May 1st, a day of enchantment when certain portals to the past open and Kat doesn't realize that she has stepped from the twenty-first century into the middle of a first century clan war.
Connor, chieftain of the Malley clan, believes he has captured the daughter of his lifelong enemy. He does agree with her that she is on her way to a wedding. A wedding to him. A wedding that will avenge a blood debt, and continue a clan war into another generation.
While Connor is certain she is Donal's daughter, Kat is just as insistent she is not. And, she will not go peaceably with this madman who talks about a demented druid, warriors and the Otherworld. His kidnapped bride belongs to another time, another place and another man.
In the end, Kat must choose between two men and two very different lives, all that she is and knows, and all that love offers, while Connor must surrender a lifetime of hatred and revenge to make room for love in his life.
I have been reading Joyce Good Henderson’s books for years! She writes with a style that captures your attention and hold it though the entire book! Every time a new books comes out I put down whatever I am reading at the time to read her book! She is one of my favorite authors!
