Highland Romance Box Set 1

Book excerpt: A collection of 3 Historical Scottish Highland romance short stories with no cliffhanger! Highland Mist At his birth, Gavin Loudain's parents were told he would be a great man with a terrible fate, courtesy of the old witches who lived out on the moors. “He will find his greatest treasure, and then succumb to death.” Fearing for his life, his parents kept him secluded and under careful watch, and in doing so let a thirst for adventure take root and grow. With the death of his father, Gavin's life was able to begin in earnest. His first act as the new laird was to hold a hunt and games in his father's honor, inviting friends, family and famed hunters to come and join them. Amongst them was Reagan MacGregor, sister of the great hunter Isaac, and a capable rider herself. From the moment their eyes meet they are destined for one another, but a sinister fate awaits Gavin on the moors, and perhaps not even the strongest love can keep him from it. Highland Rapture A peaceful trip through the Northern English countryside to a quiet town on the sea turns into a bath of blood when the band of soldiers accompanying Isabelle Wharton and her new husband Captain Alan Wharton are attacked and massacred by a band of Scottish outlaws. The men take Izzy hostage, and she finds herself the prisoner of one Owen Chester, the very man directly responsible for her husband's death. Held captive whilst waiting for ransom, Izzy finds herself wrestling with her undeniable, fiercely strong attraction for Owen and her guilt against feeling anything but contempt for the man who killed the one she thought she loved. Highland Vow Lyla never imagined she would be a lynchpin for anything. Her mother told her all her life that, following the death of her father, it would be her responsibility to marry the boy next door and merge their lands and cattle. To her credit, she does intend to... ...until a group of men wearing Cameron colors come riding down the road. With her fields condemned to burn, and her town threatened to be razed to the ground, Lyla does the unthinkable, and offers herself in marriage as a show of good faith to the leader of the clan, a powerful man named Lachlan, if he will only spare her town and allow them to pay tax and tribute to remain alive. To the horror of her people, Lachlan accepts.
