But first, a word from ... Today's Sponsor
I really enjoyed this story because it brings together many unlikely characters -- gods, goddesses, witches, and dragons -- and artfully meshes myth, legend, and fantasy, creating a highly enjoyable tale.
To Love a Highland Dragon (Dragon Lore)
Ann Gimpel is a clinical psychologist, with a Jungian bent. She's also a mountaineer and vagabond at heart. A lifelong aficionado of the unusual, she began writing speculative fiction on a bet. Since then her short fiction has appeared in a number of webzines, magazines, and anthologies. Her paranormal romance and urban fantasy novels are widely available in e-format and print. When she's not writing, she's skiing, hiking, or climbing with her husband and three wolf hybrids.

Here's the set-up:
A modern day psychiatrist and a dragon shifter stranded in time can't escape their destiny, no matter how unlikely it seems.
In a cave deep beneath Inverness, a dragon shifter stirs and wakens. The cave is the same and his hoard intact, yet Lachlan senses something amiss. Taking his human form, he ventures above ground with ancient memories flooding him. But nothing is the same. His castle has been replaced by ungainly row houses. Men aren’t wearing plaids, and women scarcely wear anything at all.
In Inverness for a year on a psychiatry fellowship, Dr. Maggie Hibbins watches an oddly dressed man pick his way out of a heather and gorse thicket. Even though it runs counter to her better judgment, she teases him about his strange attire. He looks so lost—and so unbelievably handsome —she takes him to a pub for a meal, to a barbershop, and then home. Along the way the hard-to-accept truth sinks in: he has to be a refugee from another era.
Never a risk-taker, Maggie finds her carefully constructed life changed forever. Swept up in an ancient prophecy that links her to Lachlan and his dragon, she must push the edges of the impossible to save both the present and her heart.

One Reviewer Notes:
The writing itself was wonderfully done. Small bits of quirk and humor were slipped in as Lachlan learned our world and it was entertaining. I love when comedy is expertly woven into the general parts of a story. The plot moved forward at a nice pace and the connections made in the story were believable and easy to immerse into the world created.
