A highland rogue Edmund MacGregor will do anything to save Scotland from English rule-even kidnap Lady Amelia Bell for ransom. As the daughter of a duke and the chancellor's betrothed, she's the perfect pawn in this game. But from the moment he first lays eyes on his spirited captive, he can't resist stealing a kiss. An adventurous lady Lady Amelia's duty is to marry well, but that hasn't stopped her from fantasizing about true love. So when a sexy Scot appears in her home, she's beguiled. When he kidnaps her, she's furious. Yet as Edmund introduces her to a world of passion beyond her wildest dreams, can she leave her family behind for this handsome Highlander? And will Edmund risk the only true home he's ever known to capture the heart of this lovely lass? "Quinn captures the aura of the Highlands and its people as well. Her portrayal of the Scots and English's conflict and contentious history is so well told that readers will feel they are a part of the events. Honorable, smart, dedicated characters fill the pages of this memorable tale as much as the sexual tension and nonstop action." "Narrator Carrington MacDuffie navigates the humor and high-stakes intrigue of this first Highland Heirs romance…Edmund's resentment and determination are clear from the first volatile scene of this story, and the growing bond between him and the feisty, hapless Amelia is skillfully captured. MacDuffie enhances their forbidden romance and heightens the dread over their inevitable separation…MacDuffie does a remarkable job distinguishing between each of the many characters in this historic adventure and is especially adept at capturing the camaraderie between the band of bold Scots heroes at its center."
