Book Review By Kayelle Allen
Highlander Unbound by Julia London

To save the family lands, Liam goes on a quest to London to retrieve a "beastie." Legend tells of an ugly beast created with sapphire and rubies, which has a giant emerald buried inside it. It rightfully belongs to his clan, and if he can steal it back from those who took it, all will be well.

He meets Ellen, a woman whose young daughter is slipping more and more into a fantasy realm. Liam confides his plan to Ellen. Desperate to help her little girl, she betrays him and goes after the priceless beastie herself.

How these two outsmart each other and attempt to locate each other and reconcile after the betrayal makes for an enjoyable read. Sensual, with a remarkable hero and truly memorable heroine.
