Andrew and Elizabeth travel far in this novel—very far, indeed. White Clover takes them on a trip to the Scottish castle of Andrew’s ancestors. They’re pulled back in time to a world where they know no one and find it necessary to fight for their very existence. They make many discoveries along the way and learn not only about the history of the castle, but about their future together. Liz intrigues Andrew, with her knowledge of Gaelic and her love of Scottish lore, and when a Scotsman named Travis shows her some attention his hackles rise. For her part, Liz is anxious to find a way home, if they can.

I enjoyed every minute of this book. Tricia McGill perfectly pulls the reader back in time along with Andrew and Liz, describing the castle and its inhabitants in such detail they fully come to life. Andrew’s aunts, Tilda and Kitty, are gems whose unsolicited advice made me laugh out loud! The way Liz first imagines she’s been swept into a television show is hysterical. The dialogue in this story is one of its strongest features, and coupled with an intriguing plot it is a winning combination. White Clover is a book I will probably order in paperback, just so I can curl up with it on a rainy day and reread it! It’s that good!
