Summary

Lightning isn’t the only thing streaking in small-town Wisconsin.

Warlock Raibeart MacGregor is on the prowl and looking for his true love. He has only one question for any lassie he meets, “Will ya marry me?” With his sanity often questioned by those who know him best, Raibeart believes there is a method to his madness. At least he hopes so. He’s convinced his true love exists, but he just can’t seem to find her.

Plagued by nightmares, he’s compelled to run himself to exhaustion each night to keep them at bay. The fact that he prefers to drop the kilt while doing so is just a bonus. But when those nightmares begin to bleed into reality, he realizes the woman he’s been searching for is literally the one tormenting his dreams.

Katherine Galbraith has been imprisoned by magick for so long that she can’t even remember what her crime was beyond the vague impression that she once loved a warlock. Bound to a world that never changes, she spends her days wishing for an end. But when prison walls begin to crack, she must decide if she wants a second chance at lost love or if that love is the reason for all her suffering.

Magic, mischief, and kilts!

From the Highlands of Scotland to the valleys of Wisconsin.... A modern-day Scottish paranormal romance by New York Times best-selling author Michelle M. Pillow.

Book ten in series

Throughout the series there was a character that always brought a smile with his antics. Raibeart was unpredictable (or was that predictably naked). Here in this tale he may finally get an answer to the question he has asked every woman.
As ever the story has been well written, my only gripe is that there appears significantly less humour, all the MacGregors are maturing as they marry off and there are less antics- a pity as that was a key feature of the early books.

Intriguing

This story was super confusing at first I had a hard time understanding what was going on but then the main characters didn’t know yet either and things later became clearer dealing with Alice was frustrating and took a lot of effort but it was entertaining and very satisfying when things took a turn for the better and I enjoyed how the book ended

Railbeart’s Happy Ending

Railbeart has been one of my favourite characters throughout this series and it’s great to see him get his own book and his happy ending. This explains some of his eccentric behaviour and we get to meet his one true love. I’ve loved the audio’s of these books and Michael Ferraiuolo never fails to deliver.

The odd wizard and the jealous witch

I love how the main hero has his own way of doing things. Also how she stands up for him.

Plus their is an amazing Umberbridge type death (if anyone else is a Harry fan you will totally agree).

Finally that beloved goofball gets a HEA!!!

This is so hysterical. horrific and super sweet. I've read the book now I've listened to the audiobook. I can honestly say I prefer the audiobook for 2 reasons. Michael's narration is so much more vivid than my mind. His voices bring the book to life. Plus while I was laughing hysterically I didn't have to worry about dropping my phone or a book and loosing my page.

Finally we have Raibeart's book and it explains a lot. Four new characters are introduced. Three are fantastic, 2 of which I hope gets books. One however is almost as vile as the devil himself. There's also a revelation that made my jaw drop to the floor.

Raibeart and Katherine (must listen to audiobook to find out who she is.) are literally put through hell and back. Not once, but twice. It's all courtesy of the evil, vile biotch Alice.
We also find out that if it wasn't for Donovan and Gregory (must listen to audiobook to find out who they are.) Raibeart would have been dead long ago. Due Alice's eardrum shattering screeching and wailing.
There are some fantastic comical one liners and phrases as well. Such as what Raibeart calls his "third leg." What he says the ghost granny's moonshine does to him and even what he plans on naming Maura and Jackson's baby. I agree 100% with his answer to the devil’s greatest trick. Katherine thinking that Crow being goth meant that she was a "creature" and not human. And Cait burning his pants instead of mending them. Oh and I can't forget the bee costume. :) :) :)
For all the horrid things Alice did to Katherine and Raibeart that made me sad, the one liners made me laugh out loud.

Michelle M Pillow's mind never ceases to amaze me. Her books are top notch and this is no exception. And nobody can do her books justice the way Michael does. He's an amazing narrator with fantastic voice talent.
My advice to you is this, ONE CLICK.... ONE CLICK....GO ON....DON'T WAIT

Another great Warlock’s MacGregor story.

It was great to hear Raibeart MacGregor’s story. I never saw this coming. I was pleased to know Katherine get’s a happy ending as well with her Raibeart and her sons!

4.5 Stars - Another Great Addition to the Series

Michelle M. Pillow has done a great job with this latest addition to the Warlocks MacGregor series. The characters were as endearing as they were entertaining while the story line kept my attention.

The narrator did a fantastic job of bringing the story to life and making it as fun to listen to as it was to read.

"... It was like a curse kept him from..."

This book is equal measures delightful and magical.

Raibeart may be the eccentric member of the MacGregor family, but underestimate or dismiss him at your peril.

Katherine has been imprisoned so long she doubts her own thinking, and no longer sees the point in surviving... then, one day, she sees a crack in a world that has been constant and unchanging for centuries, and dares to hope.

This done in one book had me laughing out loud at times, at others it ripped my heart out and reminded me just how much of an emotional rollercoaster can fit in one book.

Raibeart has a unique perspective, and while others may have their doubts, he's an aware guy with better than average observation skills... just the kind of guy you want around in a world where Magic can have all kinds of effects.

I really enjoyed this reading/narration, it captured Raibeart's personality and accent, as well as the magic, and wildness of their world.

Raibeart Forever

I love Raibeart, he's funny. This book was so good. I think the MacGregor series is one of the best series that Michelle M. Pillow writes. I like the whole MacGregor clan, I really like the accent. I'm gonna have to listen to the couple of audio's I haven't heard yet in this series. I like that Raibeart found what he was missing.

A Streak of Lightning

Warlock Raibeart MacGregor is looking for his mate or a wife. His first question to any female is "will you marry me?" One night on his walk he meets with two men who claim him as a father to which he knows he cannot be. In the morning he returns home but something isn't right. In his room there is a picture he has never seen and then the woman in that picture is there. Now he must unravel her past and quite possibly his own to make thiWarlock Raibeart MacGregorngs right.
Michael Ferraiuolo is wonderfully sexy as the warlord.
Fantastic audio and even better to listen to that scottish burr!!

Raibeart's Nightmares

Warlock Raibeart MacGregor’s seemingly crazy actions really do have a reason and purpose. He has nightmares and is driven to find his soulmate. This is not random behavior. There is a reason behind this irresistible driving force. And there really is someone he has to find, not just a generic woman. But who is she? How can he find her? Why is it so urgent?

Katherine Galbraith is imprisoned by magic and is not sure why anymore. Then something begins to change. But she can’t remember whether she should give love another chance or fight against the one who has caused her eternal suffering. How will she choose? And what will it mean for Raibeart? Grab your copy – there are unexpected surprises on the way that you won’t want to miss!

The narrator for the audiobook version is Michael Ferraiuolo. He does a great job with the intonation of the voices to keep the story interesting and make it easy for the listener to get an accurate idea of what each character is thinking or feeling. It helps to set the mood and is a comfortable way to “read” and enjoy the book.
