About Michelle M. Pillow Free Reading Guides Please Leave a Review About A Dash of Destiny A dash of destiny and a pinch of passion can change everything… Scottish warlock Rory MacGregor knows something from the supernatural world is trying to kill him. He’s not sure exactly what that something is, but it’ll make for a fun adventure figuring it all out. Of course, nothing is simple, so when Fate tosses in a dash of destiny to keep him on his toes by way of an enchanting new arrival in town, he’s all in. He just wished she was too. Life hasn’t turned out as planned for Jennifer Greene. After taking care of her sick father for years, she’s come to Green Vallis, Wisconsin, for one reason only—a job. She isn’t looking for adventure, even if it’s by way of a tempting Highlander in a kilt or men streaking across the countryside. And she definitely isn’t looking for love—even though love is looking for her.

So if you have found yourself waiting and wishing for his proposal, gazing for naked warlocks running past your window with longing, well, we have a support group for that: Michelle M. Pillow Fan Club Uncle Raibeart Love Fest. My sincerest apologies. We do what we can to keep him reined in but unfortunately have not found a proper firewall for Raibeart’s magickal hacking skills. If you do see him, please, tell him to put on some clothes and come home. And, whatever you do, do not say yes to anything he proposes. Thank you, Michelle M. Pillow Note from the Author The term “warlock” is a variation on the Old English word “waerloga” primarily used by the Scots. It meant traitor, monster, deceiver, or other variations. The MacGregor Clan does not look at themselves as being what history has labeled their kind. To them, warlock means magick, family, and immortality. This book is not meant to be a portrayal of modern day witches or those who have such beliefs. The MacGregors are a magickal class all their own. As with all my books, this is pure fantasy. In real life, please always practice safe sex and magic(k). Chapter One Ireland, 1693 Rory MacGregor watched the muddy hand give one last twitch before the earth swallowed the woman whole. The stitch in his side from trying to push through the peat bog was nothing compared to the agony of defeat. If not for the fact he needed to catch his breath, he would have screamed.

Only too late did he realize his warlock magick was useless in the enchanted trap. For the moment, he was like any other human, imprisoned inside the knowledge that death came for him—in slow, descending inches. He reached his hand into the bog, feeling around in a desperate attempt to grab hold of her even though logically, he knew she was too far away. He shivered at the cold pressure against his naked legs. The smell of the decaying plant life stirred each time he slowly tried to lift his foot. This was not the first time he’d been stuck in a bog, but it was the first time he couldn’t quickly maneuver his way out of it. “Tha mi duilich,” he whispered to the woman he’d tried to rescue. I’m sorry. Rory knew he should back up, but he tried to take a step forward instead. Her eyes, the same dark color as the land that consumed her, had pleaded with him for help. Maybe if he reached her, there would still be time. The bog refused to release his legs. Rory glanced around the flat landscape, stretching his neck to see behind him. He caught sight of a figure along the edge of his vision. He tried to twist farther, but the movement caused his body to sink a little more. “A woman went under,” Rory yelled over his
