Heidi Belleau (Goodreads Author),

Ah, Scotland, an Art History student's wet dream. Gorgeous old castles, great booze, sexy locals with even sexier accents, and even a gory ghost story or two.

Maxwell's annoyingly young, but there's cranky Cormac from The Druid Stone so that makes up for it. The story itself is a good one if a little short, but it's also slice-of-life so I don't know how much more mileage really could have been gotten out of it.

This is a fun short story. I liked the atmosphere of the setting and the sexy boldness of the protagonist, Maxwell. It's a quick read, but I certainly got a feeling for Maxwell and his relationship problems at home :). It's not too deep, has some fun action, in both an exciting-spooky and a sensual sense.
All in all, good way to take up 20 mins.

An enjoyable short story, rather lighter and less polished than others I've read by these authors maybe. Obviously a snippet from a larger universe that raised interesting questions about the supernatural and then distracted us with sex from pondering the answers!
A short, sexy introduction to the swarthy Cormac. He's got some attitude that counters Maxwell's free spirited exuberance. We see that both men are hurting and in need of someone who understands them.
Not as perfectly crafted or significant as Harm Reduction, which really blew me away. But I still liked it well enough.
Nice short addition to the series.
Damn! Wish there were more.
