A magical novel about family, destiny, food, men in kilts, and the sometimes twisted path to love. Delightful, charming, and heartwarming! NYT bestselling author Wendy Higgins
Helping her aunt organize a festival in the Scottish Highlands where Rob Roy MacGregor once lived seems like the perfect escape from Anna Cameron’s broken engagement. But to succeed, she’ll have to wrangle kilt-wearing villagers, dangerous sheep, and the reclusive lord of the glen who refuses to open his property to the public for the ancient tradition of Sighting.
To locals, the Balwhither Glen is known as a thin place, where the veil between worlds peels back once a year to reveal the face of a person’s one true love. The legend could draw much-needed tourism–but that’s exactly what Connal MacGregor doesn’t want. Not when he’s desperate to keep himself and his daughter out of the public eye.
Struggling to mediate between Connal and the needs of the village, Anna finds herself falling in love–with Connal and his disfigured daughter, with the villagers, and with the enchanted glen itself. But a brief glimpse of the future is risky, and confronting old wounds scars could finally set both Connal and Anna free to love with their whole hearts–or endanger their every chance of happiness.
A wonderfully romantic story filled with love and healing, perfect for fans of the heartwarming romances of Nora Roberts, Susan Wiggs, Maddie Dawson, Susan Mallery, and Inglath Cooper, as well as Sarah Addison Allen’s magical women’s fiction and Susanna Kearsley’s novels with a historical sense of place.
PRAISE FOR LAKE OF DESTINY
I loved this! It reminds me of a Nora Roberts series, The Gallaghers of Ardmore … but a Scottish version with men in kilts! – Two Chicks on Books Outlander-Lite Meets Gilmore Girls in Scotland. This is a story that sucked me in from the start and didn’t let go until I’d laughed, shed a few tears and worked up an appetite. Fast. Fun. Romantic. Read it! – Jenuine Cupcakes Reminds me of a Maeve Binchy-type novel. The storytelling is fantastic, the characters are well-defined, and believable and she weaves such a tale of love and magic! – Amazon Customer Erin E Wolf
