Title: Match Made in the Highlands
Author: Pam Binder
Genre: Romance at Christmas/Time Travel
Book Blurb:
In the Scottish Highlands, and with the last lines of the movie Brigadoon fresh in her mind, Irene Redmond signs up for a tour, hoping to uncover secrets hinted at in her mother’s diary. Instead, Irene is transported back in time to the thirteenth century, along with the rest of the tour group. Logan Mackinnon, confirmed bachelor, has put his life on hold to help his father care for his mother and honor her dying wish to tour Stirling Castle. Sparks fly when Logan and Irene meet, but their budding romance is tested when they learn the conditions needed for their return to the twenty-first century. Like Brigadoon, the castle is enchanted, and only a marriage between two people who truly love each other will break the spell— and vows must be said before midnight. Irene expected to unravel family secrets; instead she meets a fellow tour guest whose kisses awaken long-ago dreams of happily-ever-after. But are their feelings strong enough to break the castle's enchantment?
Excerpt:
Strong arms wrapped around her.
“Don’t worry,” Logan said. “I’ve got you.”
She clung to his neck as he gathered her closer. She could feel his heart beat against her chest, or was that hers? Random thoughts popped in and out. How had he reached her so fast? Did he think she was clumsy? Too heavy?
Pathetic. He’d saved her, and all she could think about was her weight. Still… She squirmed in his arms. “Thank you, but you can put me down.”
“And blow my one chance to rescue a beautiful damsel in distress? Not a chance. Besides, we’re almost there.”
Although the bagpipes were louder and she could hear the haunting notes of a flute, the mist was as dense as ever. “How can you tell?” she said. She felt a rumble of laughter rise in his chest.
“It’s a guess. I haven’t a clue.”

What’s your favorite thing about the Fall season:
Everything! The autumn colors of pumpkin orange and firelight red. I love the cooler Fall days, and crisp nights that make you want to cuddle by a fire with a good book, or someone you love.
What inspired you to write this story:
I have always loved the movie Brigadoon because it was also my mother’s favorite and I wanted to also dedicate a book to my sister. Brigadoon is the story about a town in Scotland that was only visible one day out of every, one hundred years. Our mother died very young and my sister and I have always kept her memory alive. The idea of the story came to me when my sister and I found a locket that had belonged to our mother.
