 <\/strong>Highland Secrets<\/strong><\/p>\n

Furious and weary, Angus Shea wants out, but he can\u2019t stop the magic powering his visions. The Celts kidnapped him when he wasn\u2019t much more than a boy. He\u2019s sick of them and their endless assignments, but they erased his memories, and he has no idea where he came from.<\/p>\n

 Arianrhod prefers to work alone and guards her privacy for the best of reasons. She\u2019s not exactly a virgin, and she\u2019d be laughed out of the Pantheon if the truth surfaced. Despite the complications of leading a double life, she\u2019s never found a lover who tempted her to walk away from the Celtic gods.<\/p>\n

 Dragon shifters are disappearing from the Scottish Highlands. The Celtic Council sends Angus and Arianrhod to Fire Mountain, the dragons\u2019 home world. Attraction ignites, so urgent Arianrhod\u2019s carefully balanced life teeters on the brink of discovery.<\/p>\n

Can they risk everything?<\/p>\n

Will they?<\/p>\n

If they do, can they live with the consequences?<\/p>\n

To Love a Highland Dragon<\/strong><\/p>\n

A dragon shifter stirs and wakens deep in the Scottish Highlands. His cave is the same and his hoard intact, yet something\u2019s badly amiss. Lachlan ventures above ground\u2014and wishes he hadn\u2019t. His castle is gone, replaced by ungainly row houses. Men aren\u2019t wearing plaids, and women scarcely wear anything at all, particularly the woman who accosts him with unseemly banter. What manner of wench is she to dress so provocatively?<\/p>\n

 In Inverness for a year on a psychiatry fellowship, Dr. Maggie Hibbins watches an oddly dressed man pick his way out of a thicket. He looks so lost\u2014and so unbelievably, knock-out gorgeous\u2014she takes a chance and stands him a meal. Lachlan\u2019s shock when he picks up a local newspaper is so palpable, Maggie jumps in with both feet.<\/p>\n

 The hard-to-accept truth bashes gaping holes in her equilibrium. He looks odd, sounds odd, acts odd because he\u2019s a refugee from another era. Born of powerful witches, Maggie runs headlong into the myth and magic that are her birthright.[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.0.5″ background_image=”http:\/\/anngimpel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/BodyBG.jpg” locked=”off”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.0.5″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.5″][et_pb_blurb title=”More in the Dragon Lore Series” _builder_version=”4.0.5″ header_level=”h3″ header_text_align=”center”][\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.0.5″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.5″][et_pb_dpblog_portfolio custom_post_types=”portfolio” include_categories=”34″ show_categories=”off” use_overlay=”off” fullwidth=”off” _builder_version=”4.0.5″ custom_margin=”|20px||20px|false|true” custom_padding=”|20px||20px|false|true”][\/et_pb_dpblog_portfolio][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.0.5″ background_image=”http:\/\/anngimpel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/BodyBG.jpg”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.0.5″ global_module=”2170″ saved_tabs=”all” locked=”off”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.0.5″][et_pb_blurb title=” About Ann” _builder_version=”4.0.5″]<\/p>\n

I’m basically a mountaineer at heart. I remember many hours at my desk where my body may have been stuck inside four walls, but my soul was planning yet one more trip to the backcountry.\u00a0There’s a timeless element to the mountains. They feel like old friends as I visit them, and visit them again. There’s nothing like standing on a remote pass where I’ve been before and seeing that the vista is unchanged. Or on an\u00a0equally\u00a0remote peak. Mountains are the bones of the world. They’ll prevail long after all of us are dust. It feels honest and humbling to share space with them. I hope I’m blessed with many more years to wander the local landscape. The memories are incomparable. They warm me and help me believe there will be something left for our children and their children after them.<\/span><\/p>\n
