Abducted by the Highlander

She dreams of a future with her noble Scot-only to discover he's an outlaw from his clan.

Roisin MacDonald lost her heart to Hugh the day she met him, but despite his promises to return to her, after he left her isle, she never heard from him again. And yet she cannot forget him and harbors the secret hope that one day their paths will cross again.

Traveling in the Highlands to visit her sister, Roisin's party is ambushed. When she tries to escape, she's horrified to discover one of the bandits is none other than Hugh Campbell. She scarcely recognizes this menacing stranger and yet there's no denying the passion that still blazes between them.

He saves her from ruin, but who will save her from him...

Commanded to spy for the Earl of Argyll, Hugh Campbell leaves everything to go undercover in a rebel MacGregor clan. Forced to survive as a mercenary, it's only the memory of sweet Roisin MacDonald that keeps the darkness at bay. One day, he hopes to make her his, but as he falls deeper into the shadows of subterfuge, he despairs he'll ever escape this life, never mind be worthy enough to seek her hand.

Hugh can't believe the one woman he hoped would never discover this side of his life is now ensnared with the rebels. Every moment she stays with him puts her in peril, and he swears he'll protect her and return her to her kin. He'll keep her safe whatever it takes, but his pledge to keep his distance from her shatters with their first illicit kiss.

As danger closes in, Hugh knows he must risk everything to ensure Roisin survives.

But how can he let her go, when he knows it means they will never see each other again?
