When they discover a chance for redemption, Callum is willing to try. But trusting an outsider isn’t acceptable. A woman in need of a new beginning.

One argument leads to a kiss and to an unbearable desire they cannot seem to fight.

FIRST THREE BOOKS IN THE SERIES includes Going Back for Romeo Not Without Juliet and Collecting Isobelle ROMEO: Jillian is an American lured back to the 15th century to rescue a plaid-clad Romeo and Juliet before their story can end in tragedy. The monster standing in her way, however, is a handsome Highlander who might just be her own Romeo...a Romeo she must leave behind. Montgomery would prefer to go down in history as the heartless creature rather than betray his secrets. But when he falls in love with the prophesied faery who has come to expose him, he'll have to learn a wee lesson from the star-crossed lovers or suffer the fate to which he once condemned them. JULIET: Juliet has a hit man, the FBI, a long-lost sister, and a handful of handsome Highlanders hunting her through time. But she's not going back until she gets what's hers. And her hunters won't go back either--not without Juliet. Quinn's timing stinks. He's about to die a martyr, which would have been fine with him a year before, but 15th century Scotland has revived his survival instincts and he's decided he wants to live after all. His only hope? Making one of his foes believe Quinn can control the future. When Juliet and Quinn find they are meant for each other, they'll have to maneuver around a centuries-old curse and a villain with a higher purpose of his own--or everything they want will be out of their hands forever. ISOBELLE: If burying her alive didn't bring her to her senses, what will? Isobelle's soft heart for star-crossed lovers has delivered her to the shores of Venice, and to the attention of God's Dragon, a man whose responsibilities include trying witches. Her Highlander guardian has his eye on the New World, but if he doesn't stay close, Isobelle will end up in the dragon's fire. Temptation hasn't been a problem for Gaspar in years, but when a fiery Scotswoman bursts into his territory spouting words of witchcraft, what tempts him most is to put a great distance between them. But the beauty is a danger to herself, and who better to eliminate that danger, than God's Dragon? It will be a simple thing, surely, to keep her from reaching beneath his armor...
