Christmas Heat: A Sizzling Holiday Collection

◆◆ Will haunting memories of the past doom a marriage before it starts? ◆◆

Coira MacDuff has had a hard life. Once a prisoner of the English and held captive in a hanging cage, she is hesitant to marry an Englishman. Still, she does so for an alliance for her clan. Never does she expect her new husband to bring her back to Liddel Castle, the place that still haunts her dreams.

Forced into an unwanted marriage by a reckless game of chance, how was the spoiled and pampered Catherine Augustine Ashbrooke to know the handsome stranger with the brooding midnight eyes would make her the pawn in a dangerous game of his own?

A lady-in-waiting struggling to fit in….

Even after three years at Robert the Bruce’s Highland court, Cairren Kennedy still feels like an outsider. Quiet and kindhearted, Cairren has fought to make a place for herself among the queen’s ladies-in-waiting when she doesn’t look like any of the other young women. A Lowlander with a French mother, her Mediterranean heritage sets her apart both by her features and her customs. When her father hints at an arranged marriage to a Highlander, Cairren fears she’ll face more discrimination when she’s forced to make her home among strangers. Can Cairren prove that she’s more than what people assume? Can she create a new life where she’s not welcome?
