As soon as Outlander's first season premiered in 2014, it became abundantly obvious that the show had something special. In addition to a remarkably talented cast, plenty of "we're not afraid to go there" storylines, and scandalously quotable dialogue, the heart of the time-traveling romance is the intense love between its main characters, Claire and Jamie. Their sexy relationship has been a nonstop emotional rollercoaster from the minute Claire arrived in the Scottish Highlands, all the way to their current separation in season three. With their reunion impending, let's reflect on all of their steamy sex scenes, tender kisses, and loving glances, prepare yourself: it's about to get hot.
