I am working my way through the remainder of Janet Chapman's Highlander books. I recently finished "Only With a Highlander." Janet Chapman is one of my very favorite romance novelists. Her books are just SO COZY. Cozy cabins, cozy fireplaces, and devastatingly handsome Scottish men. Add in a bit of magic, tender family relationships, a great love story...and you have a Janet Chapman Highlander romance novel. I've been reading the Highlander series in order and I highly recommend it. While the books do stand alone, the characters are continued from one book to another and are set in different time periods. The Highlander books in reading order up to this book are:

Charming the Highlander
Loving the Highlander
Wedding the Highlander
Tempting the Highlander
Only With a Highlander

While I did enjoy this book, I did not enjoy it as much as I have the rest of the books in the series. I had two main problems with this book. The first was that I never felt like I really got to know the male lead, Matthew Gregor. The second problem was that I never really understood WHY mankind was doomed because of Matt's actions. Having said that, I did like the book and I found the ending satisfying. There was even a twist at the end that surprised me.

For those that like to know, the book did have several "intimate" scenes, though all but one took place after Matt and Winter were married. The scenes were relatively mild, with no bad language.
