10. Dark Rival (The Masters of Time, 2) - Brenda Joyce, HQN Paranormal Romance, October 2007, ISBN: 9780373772193, 416p.
Featuring: Black Royce (Ruari) and Allie (Ailios) Monroe
Synopsis:
Highland warriors sworn to protect Innocence through the ages….
A golden man, he is called Black Royce—a battle hardened soldier of the gods. His vows are his life—until he is sent to New York City to protect a Healer from those who would use her powers for themselves. The moment Royce sees beautiful, feisty Allie Monroe, he knows she will be his only weakness—and he is right.
Destiny is a dangerous thing.
Allie Monroe is more than an heiress. She is a Healer, willing to do anything to save victims of the evil that lurks in the city at night. But alone, she can do only so much—until destiny sends her the darkest Highlander of them all. Then evil strikes and Royce is destroyed before Allie's eyes. Now Allie will do anything to save Royce—even if it means going back in time to a dark, dangerous world to be with him. And confronting their enemies could cost not only their lives, but also their love—for all eternity.
Comments:
I definitely liked this one better than the first. Royce is just as "macho man" as his nephew (Malcolm), but it went over much better. ::shrug:: I'm looking forward to more of this series, especially the next one Dark Embrace (Aidan's story). Just a note: this book had a lot of time jumping.

I haven't read this author
I haven't read this author yet, but I've seen this book picked up by a lot of people- so I'm glad to have read your review!
Could you tell me how you included the picture of the book cover? Thanks and hope you're having a great day!

Pictures
The is a little button at the bottom of the screen you're typing on that has a tree on it. When you click it a screen called "insert/edit image" will pop up.
The first line "Image URL" is where you put the link for the pic. If you go to a website that has the cover pic (I use B&N), right click on the pic, you should either have an option that says "copy image location" or "properties." If the copy image location option is there, just click it and paste in the "Image URL box." If you see the "properties" option, click on it. A box will pop up and you'll see a line that says "Address (URL)" highlight, copy, and paste that in the "Image URL" box. Either way, the information you paste should end in either .jpg or .gif
You can put the book title in the "Image description" box (or at least that is what I do), the alignment scroll-down option is what determines where the pic is on your screen - I use "middle" but that's up to you. I've never messed w/ any of the other boxes.
Um, hope that made sense. I may have made it sound more complicated than it really is.
