Official synopsis Publisher
“This kind of story is the reason why people are in love with the highlands and the mythical men and women who once roamed the moors.”–Kerrigan Byrne, USA Today bestselling author
When a Highland laird decides to marry, nothing can stand in his way…not even the bride.
No one ever accused Kerr MacAlister of being a nice man. Everyone would agree, however, that when the laird makes a promise, nothing can stop him. Which is why everyone knows Isobel MacKinnon will end up his wife.
Isobel spent most of her childhood in love with the tall, dark, and sexy Scot. It wasn’t until she was fifteen and failed to entice Kerr into kissing her that things turned sour. Now, Kerr is the one trying to entice her, but Isobel won’t be swayed…no matter how tempting he might be.
Then Kerr discovers she may be eloping with someone else, and he has a choice to make–is this Highlander’s fate to steal her away himself, to a place where both love and danger lurk, or let her go and face losing her forever?
Readers will fall in love with this Scottish Highlander Romance with:
- Enemies (or friends?) to lovers
- A bantering band of Scottish brothers
- A lass who never loses (unless it’s her heart)
