Description

Kristianna discovers the magic of Scotland when she comes face to face with the man of her dreams – four hundred years in the past… Art-history major Kristianna Campbell gets more education than she bargains for when she visits Scotland with her college class. On a shopping excursion she picks up an unusual souvenir—an antique pocket watch once owned by Iain MacGregor.

The enchanted watch pulls her back through time where she lands smack in the middle of Iain MacGregor's territory—in the year 1603, during the proscription against the MacGregors.
Unsure of where she is or how she got there, Kris is stunned when she sees Iain and realizes he’s not exactly a stranger to her. She’s dreamed of him for weeks. And her attraction to him is stronger in the flesh than in her dreams. Realizing the danger in revealing her real surname of Campbell, Kristianna tells him her last name is Armstrong.
The situation is tense as Iain battles enemies on all sides, thanks to King James VI and the decree that the name of MacGregor be outlawed, and the Earl of Argyll, Archibald Campbell’s desire to see the MacGregors decimated. Iain has neither the time nor the inclination to deal with the strange lass who mysteriously landed in his territory.
But Kristianna affects him in ways no other woman has. To desire her is acceptable, but when she begins to reach the heart he thought long dead, he knows he will never be the same.

While researching my own genealogy with my children, I came across some interesting facts. I knew my great-grandfather came from Scotland. I came across a site that told about the MacGregor's and the proscription against them. It also showed some of the names taken by them, one of them being Wilcox. It was then I decided to write my story with Iain MacGregor as my hero.

"Terisa Wilcox has penned an intriguing story, filled with interesting historical detail and dialogue so realistic as to transport the reader back in time to Scotland of the 17th century. Kristianna and Iain are charming characters and Wilcox relays their attraction to one another in a fun, entertaining way. The plot moves quickly and will hold the reader’s attention throughout as Wilcox cleverly weaves conflicts into the story that threaten the two lovers’ future."

"Forbidden love, deceit, trickery and distrust. If you like the sound of any of these words then you are sure to enjoy Timeless Mist. There is nothing like a book where a man has to overcome his ego and pride to conquer the woman that he has his eyes set on. What struck me most was the Scottish dialect, it is consistent and impressive. Kristianna is a sweetheart and Iain is impossible…just the way I like my romance novel men."
