When love collides with duty, only the bold will survive...

Gregor “the Black” MacLeod is on a mission. He has been tasked with raising an army to oust the Pretender King who usurped Scotland’s throne. But when he is met with naught but refusals, he must turn to his only asset—his brute strength. He spreads a wager through the Highlands—any man he defeats in single combat must pledge to stand against the Pretender. But when a bonny lass turns his challenge against him, he finds himself indebted to her service. Gregor intends to see his obligation through as swiftly as possible, but his heart may have other plans…

Birdie Morgan is in search of help. With her clan battered by raids from a neighboring enemy, she needs the strongest warrior in the Highlands to protect her people. When she brings the Black MacLeod to his knees—literally—she binds his strength and skill to her cause. But drawing Gregor close may have unexpected consequences. She isn’t supposed to care for the fierce, commanding Highlander, yet a breathtaking passion ignites between them, endangering the very peace she is fighting for. Can they deny their desire for the sake of the country, or will their love destroy everything they’ve built?

If you enjoy forbidden romance, gruff alpha Scots, and stories of love conquering all, start reading this page-turning, sizzling Scottish historical romance now!

Um sich zu beweisen, würde sie alles wagen. Um sie zu schützen, wird er alles riskieren.

Als einzige Frau im Bodyguard Corps von König Robert the Bruce will Mairin Mackenzie sich unbedingt beweisen. Als der König eine Mission vorschlägt, um in England die Saat für einen Bürgerkrieg zu säen, ergreift Mairin die Chance, obgleich die Rückkehr dorthin die Konfrontation mit dem albtraumhaften Trauma ihrer Vergangenheit bedeutet. Doch zu ihrer Enttäuschung beschließt the Bruce, ihr ein zweites Mitglied des Corps zur Seite zu stellen – Niall, den einzigen Engländer im Corps. Obwohl Niall eine überraschende Wärme in ihr entfacht, hat sich Mairin geschworen, alle Engländer bis zum Tag ihres Todes zu hassen. Wenn sich ihr die Chance auf persönliche Rache bietet, kann sie dann auf ihre Stärke vertrauen, auch wenn das bedeutet, dass sie den Sturm in ihrem Herzen ignoriert?

Niall Beaumore fürchtet, dass ihm diese Mission zum Verhängnis werden könnte. Nach sechs langen Jahren im Corps von the Bruce ist dies seine beste Chance zu zeigen, wie tief seine Verbundenheit mit Schottland ist. Doch die Verbindung mit Mairin ist weitaus gefährlicher als alles, was er je erlebt hat. Von dem Moment an, als er sie das erste Mal sah, war Niall von dem Feuer hinter Mairins taubengrauem Blick gefangen. Nachdem er schon einmal dabei versagt hat, diejenigen zu beschützen, die ihm am Herzen liegen, verspricht er, Mairin niemals zu Schaden kommen zu lassen. Doch als Pflicht und Sehnsucht aufeinanderprallen, sind beide gezwungen, sich zwischen einer unerwarteten Liebe und dem Schicksal der schottischen Freiheit zu entscheiden.

Enthralled (Viking Lore, Book 1):

He is bound by honor…
Eirik swears never to claim possession over another human being, but when he journeys across the North Sea to raid the holy houses of Northumbria, he encounters a dark-haired beauty, Laurel, who stirs him like no other.

He claims her as his thrall, but can he claim her heart, or will Laurel fall prey to the devious schemes of his enemies?

She has the heart of a warrior…
Laurel refuses to be bested by the backbreaking work and lecherous advances she must endure at Whitby Abbey. When Viking raiders storm the abbey and take her captive, her strength may finally fail her—especially when she must face her fear of water at every turn. But under Eirik’s gentle protection, she discovers a deeper bravery within herself—and a yearning for her golden-haired captor that she shouldn’t harbor. Torn between securing her freedom or giving herself to her Viking master, will fate decide for her—and rip them apart forever?

Despite the danger, Madrena risks trusting Rúnin. The two travel deep into the Northland wilds, only to be entangled in a world of secrets and peril.

Eine gefährliche Mission. Eine tödliche Verschwörung. Eine gewagte Liebe.

Jerome Munro hat sein ganzes Leben lang mit einer schändlichen Wahrheit gekämpft – er ist der Sohn eines Verräters. Als Robert the Bruce ihm befiehlt, eine kühne Erklärung über Schottlands Unabhängigkeit zu überbringen, weiß Jerome, dass dies seine beste Chance ist, seine Loyalität zu beweisen. Als er in die Borderlands reist, um Unterstützung für den König zu gewinnen, fühlt er sich ungewollt von einer Engländerin mit kupferfarbenem Haar verzaubert, deren Entschlossenheit, the Bruce zu dienen, eine unerwartete Anziehung entfacht. Jerome fürchtet, dass sein Verlangen nach Elaine seinen Auftrag behindern wird, und kämpft gegen die Anziehung zwischen ihnen, doch als das Schicksal sie auf einer gefährlichen Mission zusammenführt, muss er sich zwischen Liebe und Loyalität entscheiden.

Elaine sehnt sich nach viel mehr als dem behüteten Leben einer englischen Lady. Der dunkle, gut aussehende Highland-Krieger, der in ihrem Haus in den Borderlands eintrifft, bietet ihr die perfekte Gelegenheit zu zeigen, dass sie mehr ist als ein dummes, verwöhntes Mädchen. Sie überredet Jerome, sie mitzunehmen, als dieser an den Hof von the Bruce zurückkehrt, doch als sie versehentlich eine Verschwörung gegen den König aufdeckt, erkennt sie, dass sie und Jerome die Einzigen sind, die Schottlands hart erarbeitete Freiheit retten können. Können sie das Geheimnis lüften und ihre wachsende Liebe schützen, als die Bedrohung überhandnimmt?
