Kenzie MacMartin chases her ram through a cave in 2019 only to find on the other side she is now in 1203.
At first she thinks a group of re - enactors are trespassing on her land but it soon become obvious that something is not quite right.
Mathias kidnaps Kenzie and plans on taking her back to his clan. Kenzie has other ideas and tries to escape so she can return to the cave and 2019.
I loved this time travel romance. It was well written with great characters. I especially loved the ram and the dog in this story as it added a touch of humour and they were always there to protect Kenzie when needed.
It also had just the right amount of romance for me.
Cannot wait to read book two in this series.
I loved the portrayal of Kenzie’s perspective of finding herself in the year 1203, pure shock! She begins with being ‘kidnapped’ by Mathias while still reeling and trying to wrap her mind around time travel while he thinks she could be an enemy. The energy between Kenzie and Mathias jumps off the page as they try to forge a relationship. Though drawn to each other, Kenzie pushes to return to her own time. Matthias is torn between his love for Kenzie and his duty to his clan.
The secondary characters are worth mentioning, especially since two of them are animals, a dog and a very expensive sheep. Those two make quite a team. Lilias and Annag will keep you guessing with what they will do next. Nothing is as it seems is a way to keep you entertained!
Kenzie is not only a brave, independent heroine, her use of her shepherd’s crook throughout the book is pretty amazing. I loved how Kenzie would use a term from the 21st century keeping Mathias confused and wondering what she was talking about.
Such a great beginning to a new series! Time travel and a Scotsman, cannot ask for more.
I liked this historical time travel romance. It was just what I needed to read in an afternoon. It had the right amount of suspense and romance. As it was my first read from Maeve, I look forward to more from her.

I really enjoyed the first book in this new series.
It was extremely well written, but that’s not a Surprise coming from the pen of Maeve Grayson.
The characters are wonderful and entertaining, and I adore the animals incorporated into their owners lives so much, each with their own personalities and tricks.
Mathias, Kenzie, Annag and Lilias are all good characters with larger than life personalities and problems.
Their lives are about to be turned upside down by a run away sheep.
Wether in the end it’s for better or worse?
I’ll let them tell you their story.
Five stars for sure.
I received an Arc copy of this book and chose to post this review
The Highlands, time travel, and romance, what is there not to like!
This book definitely gave me Outlander vibes. Kenzie chases her ram through a cave in 2019 and ends up in 1203. Then enter Mathias battling against another clan. The rest is history.
While the romance part is obvious, I actually really enjoyed the animal sidekicks, Brodie and Ramsey. They always seemed to add complications or aid at the right times. The best part that lightened up this book a bit is the modern saying that Kenzie kept letting slip out confusing those in 1203.
The only part about this book I had wished was a bit different was a slower pace to the romance. A little extra teasing in the middle might have help in latching on to that part of the book more.
This book was enjoyable and had the right amount of suspense and fun to keep me interested in reading more!
Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me a digital copy of this ARC for my honest review.
