A NIGHT OWL REVIEWS BOOK REVIEW | Reviewed by: Deidre
Ericka travels to Scotland to join her Aunt May, where May has recently bought a Castle. The Castle is known as Castle MacKinnon, a castle that Akira MacDonnell writes about in her heart-rending diary that speaks of love, struggle and the horrors of curses and death. Ericka's first night in the castle leads strange dreams of ghostly imagines and to sexual dreams and wonder. As Ericka spends more time in the castle she realizes that Akira, who only wants to free her brothers from a curse that leaves them frozen in stone, haunts it. Akira has seven brothers all frozen in stone by an evil clansman; she hid their statues until the time that she could find a way to free them. Akira gives Ericka a riddle to figure out a way to find Gavin, the brother that is in stone at Castle MacKinnon. Ericka must overcome her disbelief of the curse and come to believe in the unbelievable. Gavin is the oldest brother in the Clan MacKinnon; he is the first to be partially freed from the curse of the Gargoyle that an old enemy placed on his family. Gavin learns of the tragic end to his family after he is freed and he swears to rescue his brothers and somehow get his revenge. As an old enemy's plans to destroy Gavin come to light, Gavin and Ericka must work together to completely free Gavin and to figure out where the other brothers are and how to free them. This book is a very quick and interesting read with very steamy scenes in it. I would like to read of the rest of the brother's stories.

Book Blurb for Curse of the Gargoyle
Gavin has been entombed in stone for hundreds of years, waiting for the right person to break the curse that put him there. After the voice of an unknown woman speaks the special words to free him, he finds himself in a time that is no longer his own. Though this woman pleasures him in every imaginable way, he's still racked with anguish for all he's lost. Duty, honor and his deep-seated need for revenge consume him.
Ericka thought flying to Scotland was the toughest feat of her life. That was until she met a ghost and freed a seventeenth-century Scottish hunk from stone. Ghosts aren't real and curses don't exist. Hot sex with Gavin fuels her imagination, but he can't possibly her soul mate, or can he…
The evil behind the curse lingers. Gavin is stone by day, man by night. Together they fight, determined to overcome the source behind the curse. But if they fail, their love could be lost for eternity.
