No home. No clan. No need of a wife. Until her.
Alexander MacCoinnich fights for hire if the cause is worthy and the price is right. Life as a mercenary suits him—until a fierce beauty snatches him from death's door after the massacre at Glencoe. Though he has nothing to offer her but himself, he can't leave behind the sweet lass who risked everything to save him.
She made an impossible promise.
When Catriona Neal promised her dying mother she would do her best to shield the clan from her father's maniacal whims, she didn't realize her twin brother, next in line to be the chieftain, was far more dangerous than her evil sire. But the arrival of the wounded, Highland warrior her brother hates and fears gives her hope and so much more.
Conquer or be conquered.
Heartbreaking treachery melds a bond between Catriona and Alexander, but can they survive long enough to nurture the love they both so desperately need?
*If you love action-packed, romantic page-turners set in Scotland during the dangerous times of the Glencoe Massacre and the early Jacobite uprisings, stirring tales about fierce Highland warriors and the fearless women who tame them, then this is the perfect novel for you!*
Intrigue, betrayal, and fiery romance abound in this prequel to the Highland Heroes series from bestselling author Maeve Greyson.
