Highland Stone

He’s all raw strength, old-world dominance, and sinful temptation. She’s modern, mouthy, and not about to surrender to anyone—especially a bossy Highlander with a sword and a smirk. But fate doesn’t care what century you’re from. Danger lurks, a betrayal simmers, and secrets unravel.
On her deathbed, Kara Malone’s grandmother confessed a secret so strange, Kara’s logical, scientific mind filed it away as just another of the old woman’s fanciful tales. Until she opens her grandmother’s small cedar box. With one touch to the talisman she finds inside, she’s swept back in time to the Scottish Highlands.
Nothing about this place is familiar. Except for the towering Highland warrior whose chiseled face, flowing back hair, and blazing blue eyes have haunted her dreams for years.
Alaxandar MacLeod, determined to discover who is behind a series of deadly raids on clan land, can’t ignore the whispers and rumors surrounding Kara’s sudden appearance. But accusing her is not an option—because Kara has lived in his dreams since he was a wee lad.
The longer Kara lives with the MacLeods, the more she wonders if she could just secretly restore the talisman to its rightful clan and stay in Alaxandar’s arms forever. But the raiders’ attacks are intensifying. And when Kara is kidnapped, her last chance to make her own choice could slip through her fingers.
Highland Stone is book one in The Talisman Trilogy. Perfect for those readers who crave historical, time travel romance with sexy highlanders and a bit of steam.

Rave Reviews for Highland Stone
“Good god I love this book! I loved that there were no editorial mistakes, and no moments where I was like "yeah, whatever". Sloan McBride weaves an entire world into the readers view with her wonderfully described story. I felt like I could really see the things she wrote about. And the ending? My breath literally caught, my heart skipped a beat, and I teared up. I promise, I promise, you will not be disappointed.”
