When Alasdair MacAulay meets a witch while celebrating a victory over the English at Edinburgh Castle in 1314, he is taunted into meeting the Sorceress Morgaine Le Fee. Instead, he finds himself transported into 1998 to land at the feet of American tourist Morgan Lafayette. He thinks she’s a Farie and she thinks he’s drunk. Her sister Justine thinks this is a perfect chance to get her sister to date.
Unfortunately, Alisdair’s time travel has changed the course of history causing Robert the Bruce to lose. Through all the confusion with neither knowing who/what the other is or when they are from, Morgan and Alisdair are drawn to each other. Can this love withstand the stretch of centuries if Alisdair returns to his own time?
Reading this book I felt like I had done some time traveling myself. The present day in this book is 1998 – Morgan uses a Polaroid camera and I was wondering why she didn’t use a cell phone to call her sister when they got separated until I remembered that they didn’t have cell phones then. This story is a wonderful read. I laughed and cried at various parts of the story and you can’t help pulling for these lovers brought together and then separated again. This book is now part of a 4 book time travel boxed set and I look forward to reading the other 3 books in this collection.
A copy of this book was gifted by the Publisher in exchange for an honest review but I already had purchased the 4 book box set based on the description.

WOW! While this isn't my favorite Claire Delacroix book I don't think it is as bad as the other reviews would make it seem. In this time travel story, Viviane, accused of being a witch travels forward in time from 1390 to 1999 using a moonstone pendant. She dropped the pendant when she disappeared and Niall is sent on a quest to find her. He uses the Moonstone to travel to wherever she is. She thinks they have traveled to Avalon, a magical kingdom but Niall recognizes that there is no such thing as magic.
Although they are attracted to each other, Niall knows they must return while Viviane wants them to stay. They love, they fight, and they do return only to be in even more trouble than when they left.
The villian of this story was not very believable and kind of ruined it for me but overall, the book wasn't too bad.… (mehr)
