That’s when Alec meets a woman whose lush curves make him forget, for the first time, all about tenth-century Scotland.   A lowly assistant for her sister’s motion picture company, wannabe screenwriter Sadie Williams is shocked when Alec agrees to let them film at the park upon one condition: that she report to him daily.
