Publisher's Summary:
A boy with dreams of adventure...a girl with a traumatic past...and a prince determined to take a throne...
Ailean MacLachlainn, the son of a poor crofter in Scotland's highlands, wants a life of adventure. He often daydreams of being a respected warrior of his clan. And he battles rival Latharn Cambeul in the game of camanachd...and wins. But Ailean meets a girl, and a shy smile and a glance from Mùirne's blue eyes turns his head. He wins her love, and his rivalry with Latharn is no longer a game with a camanachd stick; now they fight with swords.
Ailean gets his wish to become a warrior when Bonnie Prince Charlie comes to raise a Highland army in the attempt to retake his father's throne. Ailean's clan chief involves his clan in the uprising and sets Ailean on a course toward a destiny he could never have forseen.
What happens when a man's dreams turn to dust? And when a man loses everything, does he have what it takes to go on?
High on a Mountain is the stirring tale of one man's remarkable journey through life. A story of adventure and love...of faith, loss, and redemption.

High on a Mountain ~ Ailean ~ A MacLachlainn Saga ~ Book 1
High on the Mountain ~ Ailean ~ tells of a common man's life during the time when Bonny Prince Charles tried to take Scotland back from control of the English. Ailean MacLachlainn is a second son and dreams of adventure; when he finds it on the bloody battlefield where he Da and brothers all die, it is nothing like he expected.
The story includes details of battles, a personal rival for his first love, capture, deportation to the colonies, slavery, a murder plot, finding a new home in the mountains of with Native Americans. The action is fast, Ailean the hero is strong and brave but also caring and gentle to those he loves.
The author, Tommie Lyn did a great deal of research into the times in the book in Scotland and wove a great historical fiction with facts from the time. She also researched how people lived in the colonies at this time and gave an accurate picture of the workings of a plantation in South Carolina. Finally she did her research on how the Cherokee people lived and kept the second part of the story historically accurate. I enjoyed the accuracy of the historical point of view with a great story.
Proud and strong Highlander
From the Western Highlands of Scotland in the 1700âs comes a story of a strong and loyal people in a struggle to survive. Ailean MacLachlainn well represented his family and clan against Latharn Cambeul and his family in the annual camanachd games. The rivalry continued for years between Latharnâs family of means and Aileanâs strong family bond.
Ailean seeks to settle his soul in the heights of Godâs creation but peace alludes him for a long, long time. Latharn also searches to soothe his rage-filled soul but believes it will come when his own version of justice is fulfilled.
This book was well written and kept my interest throughout the whole book. Good job Tommie Lyn.
