Hard-Hearted Highlander - Julia London - An indomitable governess...a brooding Highlander...a forbidden affair... An ill-fated elopement cost English-born governess Bernadette Kent her reputation, her fickle lover, and any chance of a future match. She has nothing left to fear - not even the bitter, dangerously handsome Scot due to marry her young charge. Naive wallflower Avaline is terrified to wed Rabbie Mackenzie, but if he sends her home, she will be ruined. Bernadette's solution: convince Rabbie to get Avaline to cry off...while ignoring her own traitorous attraction to him. Forced engagement to an Englishwoman is a hard pill for any Scot to swallow. Even worse when the fiancee in question is a delicate, foolish young miss - unlike her spirited, quick-witted governess. Sparring with Bernadette brings passion and light back to Rabbie's life after the failed Jacobite uprising. His clan's future depends upon his match to another, but how can any Highlander forsake a love that stirs his heart and soul? - Her Legendary Highlander - Nicole Locke - Her rugged prisoner...becomes her fiercest protector Capturing legendary highlander Malcolm of Clan Colquhoun was Andreona's last chance to win her tyrannical father's respect. Instead he orders them both to be killed! Resigned to her devasting role as the family outcast, she and her prisoner escape and continue on his quest to return a treasured heirloom. They find solace in their unexpected passion, but haunted by a lifetime of betrayals, will either dare to hope it could last beyond the journey?
