Seeker by Jean M. Grant

Nock, draw, release. . . If her arrow hits its mark, will it prevent war…and secure her destined soulmate?

 About the Book:

     Aileana Montgomerie’s bloodline holds valuable gifts of foresight and healing, but with each honor comes a curse. Even though she is descended from the mystical isles’ folk, she lacks the ability of the Scottish Ancients and wonders if she belongs in a magical family. Aileana just wants a purpose. What good is her bow and arrow if she is denied the right to fight for her clan?

     Brodie MacDougall is ordained to be the next war chieftain of his clan. The title is a privilege as long as his brother, the future laird, doesn’t expect him to lift a sword and charge into battle. Chronic pain and nervous vapors force him to spend his days alone. Can his strategic skills keep him one step ahead of his conspiring brother?

     Through a magical Mortar & Pestle, Brodie finds his heart’s desire. But there’s a catch. The seat on his brother’s council is no longer dependent upon his health…but on Aileana’s strength. With rumblings of unrest among their clans, will their love foster an alliance or be a step toward war? 

Our Review: 

          Author Jean M. Grant, who is known for her imaginative descriptions of both setting and characters, goes above and beyond with Seeker. It is one thing to describe what appears to be unrelenting conflict—it is quite another to invent new and clever ways for the lead characters—Lanie and Brodie—to carry it out. This one warms the heart in all ways.

 On a scale of 1-5, Seeker merits a 6.
