Highland Rebel

Ellie Graham is the tour manager for Ian MacGregor, Celtic rock star. She's trying desperately to resist his considerable charms. He's not only beautiful, but he's a nice guy and she knows she has started to fall in love with him. That's why she has to quit working for him and leave as soon as the tour ends. There's less chance she'll get hurt that way. What she doesn't know is that Ian has been magically transported to the present day from the year 1711. He felt an instant attraction to Ellie right from the start, but when he tried to take their budding friendship into flirtation, she pulled away. She has serious self-esteem issues, and hides herself under layers of black clothing. I can't help but love a heroine in Doc Martens. As Ellie is running, quite literally, away from her feelings for Ian, she ends up at the cairn where her older sister Maggie was transported to the past. She doesn't know anything about that though, so she isn't aware of the repercussions of walking along the spirals found within. Upon discovering Ellie has disappeared, Ian knows he must travel back in time to rescue her. Ian left behind his responsibilities when he traveled to the future, and Ellie is experiencing the same feeling of freedom in the past. But having returned to the past to save Ellie, Ian realizes he must stay in his own time and face his responsibilities. Maybe even alter history for the better. That means he'll have to let go of Ellie and his feelings for her. Highland Rebel by Tess Mallory is a fantastic blend of romance, adventure and history, with a well-crafted plot, a comfortable pace, and likeable and intelligent characters. I had read good things about Ms. Mallory's other time travel romances, and now I'm looking forward to reading more of her work. This can be read and enjoyed as a standalone, but if you're like me you'll want to read the first book as well. Anyone who likes time travel romances and hot men in kilts will love this one. Definitely recommended. 4 1/2 Kisses, 1 Pepper ~Lindy Reviewer, TwoLips Reviews, LLC [...]

Highland Rebel Tess Mallory never fails to entertain and her imaginative storytelling really shines through in "Highland Rebel." It really is unlike anything I've ever read (and I read A LOT). It's a non-stop adventure through history that makes you hold your breath til you finish the epilogue! It almost felt like a movie playing in my mind! The imagery is so detailed, the writing is beautiful, and the characters unforgettable! If you like sex, humor, and adventure (and who among us doesn't!?), this book is a must-read that is a keeper for sure!

The Highland Rebel Ian MacGregor is the hottest rock star with his songs dominating the charts and air waves. He finds his fame and fortune amusingly ironic since he is an original Highland Rebel having traveled through time from the eighteenth century. Although he plays the groupies as the "Celtic Casanova", he is attracted to band manager Ellie Graham. Ellie loves Ian, but since her parents died she fears strong emotions so she hides her feelings from the singer and to a degree herself. When Ellie accidentally travels back three centuries, Ian follows to save his beloved. Only fate picked a time and place that leaves them between a rock of Highland rebels and the roll of the armies of the English king. The Queen of Highlander time travel romance (see HIGHLAND MAGIC, HIGHLAND DREAM, HIGHLAND FLING and HIGHLAND ROGUE), Tess Mallory writes another whimsical tale as the roguish hero follows his love back to the era he left behind. Part of the pleasure in this delightful entry is the reaction of Ian's brother Angus to his siblings' return after his being away over two decades from home as he sets the tone and invigorates the saga.
