will the light of hope be doused forever? To Weave a Highland Tapestry (Order of the Dragon Knights) by Mary Morgan

"Mary Morgan has done it once again. She has rocked this book in a way that no other author could as she has a certain style of writing that pulls you in from the first page and doesn’t let you back out until the end and even then you are still thinking about it." - Alison, Goodreads

Description:

Or will the light of hope be doused forever?

Highlander Fascination—A love affair by Mary Morgan

What is it about a man in a kilt that evokes romance? Especially a Highlander standing on a heather-filled mountain top or by a shimmering loch in Scotland? Can I explain this fascination some of us have with these brawn, kilted men? No. Each of us could debate and/or argue the topic for hours. I know I have within my own book club.  

So let me state my own fascination and reasons…

1. Literature is a powerful source. I was a bookseller for Borders Books. I understand the draw of a sexy Highlander on the cover of a romance novel. For some, it’s an automatic buy. Psst…I was one of those buyers, too. Who doesn’t want to be rescued (or rescue) by a Highlander? I’m raising my hand to volunteer!

2. Perhaps some of the attraction and allure came when I watched the movies Braveheart and Rob Roy. The fight for justice, freedom, and love. Powerful ingredients—values that are true even today.

3. My love affair with Scotland and Ireland began decades ago. I blame it on my own bloodline—a yearning to return to the land of my ancestors. It called out to me within the stories of Irish mythology and Scottish history. I'd close my eyes and pretend I was there.

When I finally took my first trip to Scotland sixteen years ago, the birth of a series—the Dragon Knights were born. I was sitting on a boulder in the Highlands, surrounded by the magic and the mists of the land. However, on the second half of my trip, I visited Ireland. As I wandered the soft rolling hills in various shades of green, the land spoke to my soul and urged me to place the Dragon Knights here, too. It would be several more years before I decided on both countries—Scotland and Ireland as part of my stories. A perfect solution to a problem I had been debating on for the Dragon Knights—my mythical Highlanders.

I’ve incorporated the major highlights with my obsession with Highlanders. There are so many factors—from my own DNA, to the magic of the land, and the historical research and stories. I’d love to discuss this further, so feel free to send me an email. I’m always open to a discussion about anything relating to Highlanders.
