Audrina James was only trying to stop the old brooch from being stolen;
she didn’t know that touching it would send her back in time to medieval
Scotland! But the brooch belonged to Audrina’s ancestor, a woman who
died tragically on her wedding night and swore to her last breath that
she would be reunited with her true love — and Audrina is her mirror
image.
It’s been one year to the day since Colin MacLaren’s bride suffered and died at the whim of a bloody-handed English occupier. So how is she standing before him? No matter how adamant her protests that she doesn’t know him — no matter how crazy her story about coming from the future — Colin is sure this woman is his lost love. Now if only he can convince her of that.
Together they must navigate the vagaries of fate that brought them together, their own scorching physical attraction, and the ever-present danger from Colin’s enemies… including a certain murderous English nobleman who knows Audrina must be a witch. After all, didn’t he kill her with his own two hands?

Review: While I love historical romances, and time travel stories, in particular, Highlander Found is not one of the best. The plot line is Ok and the idea had potential, but the writing is repetitive in places, there are typos here and there, and some sentences have to be read a few times to be able to make sense of them.
In addition to that, the story sometimes gets a bit confusing. At first I thought Colin was a widower, only to conclude that he really wasn't, or no one was sure he was. And when Audrina realizes that she has not only traveled in time but is the reincarnation of a long lost ancestor, things get a bit muddled again.
So, overall, just an Ok book. If you love the genre you may want to give it a try, but I'm not actively recommending it.
Highlander Found is book one in the Highlander in Time series by Rebecca Preston and I intend to have a look at the next book in the series, Highlander Warrior, to see if the story improves a bit.
