MY REVIEW
Summary:

Michael is trapped with the ‘moderns’ in a century he doesn’t understand after being brought here by a wizard, whom messed up his spell bringing other highlanders with him.

My Thoughts
Wedding The Highlander is the third in this wonderful series, that I keep falling for over and over….Janet Chapman is a new favorite author. In a way her humor is similar to Sandra Hill, however there is still a serious tone to the story, and a tender romance in every story that will pull at the readers heart strings….After seeing Michel in the previous two books, I was excited to read his story. From the first book, my heart went out to this characters, and Chapman definitely fulfilled every wish for him….Wedding The Highlander was definitely a sparkling gem…I felt enchanted by the romance that builds between Libby and Michael, and his son Robbie will just make you smile, I think I just loved everything about this book, and there was still a good plot that will keep you flipping those pages as fast as you can read them….Definitely A 5 for me!!!!
