When British reporter, Lindsay Pawlowski, is sent to interview American pilot, Alex MacNeil, there's a small spark of interest on both sides over the fact nether fits the expected stereotype, but no imminent flame. Then, when Alex is assigned to ferry Lindsay home in his jet, a fiery vortex suddenly appears, sending them crashing into the sea. They survive, but are soon made aware that somehow they've been transported back in time to Robert the Bruce's Scotland.

Where there may be a place for a warrior of Alex's experience and skill but where there is no place for a woman like Lindsay. So, to protect her body and preserve some independence, she becomes his squire. A position which places her body in very different dangers - from their closeness, as well as more conventional battles.

An interesting thread intertwined with the relationship between Lindsay and Alex is how differently they accept and adjust to the time they are now living in. I enjoyed the historical depiction of the culture, although I did have one major quibble over having people called Mr. or Miss rather than the more appropriate Master or Mistress those are derived from.

Overall an interesting historical romance, with some real fire - sexual and otherwise - between the lead characters and a vibrant depiction of an interesting time in history. Recommended, but to romance readers rather than fantasy fans.
