Book Description
A Soldier's Salvation Forever seeking salvation… Rodric Anderson isn't a soldier anymore. Nay, many would refer to him as a mercenary-a soldier for hire. He's embroiled in a Duncan clan matter. He's also hunted by the authorities, wanted by women, and tied to none. He's a part of a band of brothers, all former soldiers, some outlaws, all who make themselves available for the right coin-sometimes, the right cause. One woman has caught his eye. A shrew of a woman. Why was it he could not get her out of his mind? Caitlin's hand has been given in marriage by her wretch of a stepfather to a man who is no less a wretch himself. Her only escape is to run away. Except that things are never quite so simple when it comes to choices. A Warrior's Soul This warrior’s soul isn’t meant to be alone... Brice is a former warrior turned soldier of fortune hired to escort a Highland shrew to an Englishman. Alana’s the niece of a Highland laird betrothed to English royalty against her will. She’s hardheaded, fierce, and independent. He’s hellbent on delivering her to her destination. Until he discovers her destination is a version of hell he wouldn’t wish on his worst enemy, and certainly not on this spirited Highland lass. An Outlaw's Word Some words are meant forever… Ysmaine’s half Scottish, half French, all attitude and independence. Quinn’s a mercenary that needs more cash than the recent jobs have been providing. She’s got the means to money. He’s got a need for it. She’s not willing to do what needs to be done for the money. He’s willing to kidnap and hold her for ransom. Until… Until a Frenchman with a title and no morals steps into the picture. Now… Things have changed. A Highlander's Need Some needs are forever… She accepts no man as her boss. She runs her father’s household and runs the forest when she’s not. He’s a youngest son brought home from his mercenary soldier of fortune ways by a father’s trickery. He’s not remotely interested in settling down. She has news for him. Neither is she. Except both their fathers think they know what this hardheaded woman and this fierce former soldier need. Only it would seem no one bothered to learn what these two want. A Highlander's Scars Not all scars are visible… Donnan Ross, a friend of Padraig Anderson, is headed home from battle bearing more scars than a man should. He discovers that his father is dying, and his brother has left the family with hefty debts to pay. Beyond frustrated, Donnan retreats to a life of a hermit while spies infiltrate the Highlands and take “disloyal” folks as captives. A powerful laird offers Donnan’s father the opportunity to erase the family’s debt in exchange for helping him find his missing daughter. A woman that some claim has fallen in love with one of the enemy. Donnan remembers the laird’s daughter only too well. Fenella, they called her. A headstrong mouthy Highland lass. No one told Donnan that Fenella was involved with the spies. No one told him she’d blossomed into such a beauty. Now, Donnan has a difficult decision to make. Fenella is not the type to fall for traitors, nor is she naïve to the ways of the world. She is not enamored with one of the enemy, but her wish to serve her clan has dropped her in hot water. And, now the bitter recluse of a man she remembers from childhood thinks the worst of her. And she doesn’t care. But why is she so bothered, then? A Highlander's Woman A Highlander loves forever... This book in the Highland Heartbeats brings us a wonderful love story for Padraig Anderson, Rodric’s younger brother who now heads the Anderson clan and has seen his brother and all of his friends find his happily ever after while he’s stayed the course and run the family business. Margaret is an assassin with the Order. Until she can’t perform her last assignment. Now she’s on the run, disguised as a lad, and facing down scoundrels outside brothels. Until she’s rescued by Sorcha and Moira and brought to the Clan Anderson homestead. Who said life would be any easier when her heart keeps beating faster every moment the laird steps near?

Book Description
A Highlander’s Captive Rufus MacIntosh wants his family’s birthright back. He’s fought wars and his own personal demons. Time to claim what is his family’s. More specifically, his brother’s. And so, bringing friends and allies, he takes back what is his family’s. The lands are theirs again. Except now, Rufus discovers his brother has abandoned the birthright, the land, all of this. He’s headed to new lands and new worlds. Rufus should be relieved, he’s no longer responsible for any of it. He can walk away from their ancestral lands. He’s not sure if he wants to. Davina MacFarland never claimed she was an angel. She certainly isn’t a common thief, even though she’s related to one, now that her brother took Rufus McIntosh’s lands. She shouldn’t have been involved. She really shouldn’t. But now there’s been a scuffle and she’s the captive of that damned Rufus MacIntosh. But she can hold her own. Or can she? A Highlander’s Gypsy William Blackheath’s had recurring dreams, the same one, over and over again, of a woman calling out for him, asking for help. He doesn’t believe in seers, but goes to visit one anyway, to learn what the dreams mean. He’s told that to find peace, he has to find the woman. Shana Invermore’s half Scottish, half gypsy. She’s definitely not a wilting flower, nor is she always one to follow laws. She can raid with the best of them. Until she’s caught. Now Shana’s the captive Jacob Stewart. And that damned Steward plans to use her as bait. She’ll show him who’s bait. A Highlander’s Reiver When a Highland lass is the orphaned charge of an uncle who leads ne’er-do-wells and thieves she has no choice but to stay and steal. No choice because leaving would mean abandoning her little brother. She’s told him not to follow her when she’s out reiving cattle from other clans. It’s just her luck he would choose to follow her on the night she’s captured. Drew MacIntosh never imagined he’d become the guardian of his sister’s twin toddlers. He’s a fighter.

One with a burden of her own, it would seem. How is he supposed to turn the lass over to Rufus so she can pay for her crimes when it would mean her brother would be left in the hands of brigands and cattle raiders? Life was so much simpler when he was soldiering and fighting. A Highlander’s Second Chance Clyde McMannis is not exactly happy. Who would be with his bairns and the love of his life gone? But he manages. He keeps his pain at bay with the ones he’s become close to. All of that changes when a familiar face from his long-forgotten past finds him and makes him an offer.

Book Description
A Highlander’s Redemption Like battles, some redemptions cannot be won In early 1746, Alasdair Macintyre is headed home after the rout at Culloden on Drummossie Moor, in sight of Inverness. The battle has been lost and scar on his face that makes him so ferocious-looking that even children run from him in terror. He learns his father has betrothed him to a local lass—a nearly blind woman—in exchange for a sizeable dowry and a chunk of land. The woman brings with her a companion that hates him immediately. He has no interest in having a chain around his neck, not even in the form of a woman he once knew as a girl—a gangly, twig of a girl. When Alasdair learns the English government has sent agents to look for those who fought on the side of Bonnie Prince Charlie his ire arises. An ire that is even more enflamed by a vision from the local sheriff who offers a thinly veiled warning that there is a price of his head. But Beitris is no longer the girl Alasdair Macintyre remembers. She’s blossomed into a stunning woman, though one that is terrified of the scarred Highlander she’s betrothed to. When Beitris learns of the treachery behind the one who has given up Alasdair to the English she’s forced to make a decision. One between her family and the gruff, scarred soldier she’s begun to love. A Highland Inheritance An English heiress has no cause to live in the Highlands. Or does she? Sheriff Colin Ramsey simply wants to keep the peace in the territory. He doesn’t want to have to enforce the Tartan and Dress Act of 1746. Nor does he want to babysit the feisty Highlanders that seek to create chaos and defy the laws—regardless how unjust said laws might be. He doesn’t like complications. Enter Iona Douglas, who brings complications in spades. This stubborn Englishwoman has inherited Scottish Highland property. She scandalously refuses to follow rules or suggestions. She insists—quite stubbornly—on brushing off advice in this lawless land. If only there weren’t feelings involved. If only she wasn’t irresistible. Colin’s problem is figuring out how to keep the lass alive when she seems hell bent on ending up dead. A Highlander’s Love Dougal Craig might have been amused regarding his reputation as a highwayman/ruffian/bandit, when actually, he's nothing of the sort. He just likes his privacy and it doesn't take much for rumors to start. He doesn't bother to deny them. More the better so people leave him alone. He's anti-social but not unfriendly, so he typically shrugs off the opinions of others. He lives quietly out on the moors, taking care of any trouble that comes his way with his guns or his swords. Tyra Fletcher’s running from a secret. But she didn’t plan on running into a musket wielded by Dougal Craig. Now she’s injured and at his mercy. Dougal’s got secrets of his own. His are far more deadly. Who’s protecting who now as this English refugee runs into the wrong end of Dougal’s weapon?
