King's Outlaws

After the crowning of Robert the Bruce, Sir James Douglas is sent to the Scottish borders to wreak havoc on those loyal to Edward of England. But his plans go wildly astray when Lady Ailish Maxwell's brother is captured by her traitorous uncle. James has every intention of finding the lad but when Her Ladyship announces she's joining the quest, he's not about to let her go, no matter how beautiful her crystal eyes, or convincing her silver tongue. And Ailish will not sit idle while her brother, the true heir to the Maxwell dynasty, is taken deeper into the enemy's lair. After putting forth every ounce of reasoning she can muster, Sir James agrees to allow her to pose as his wife. But what she doesn't count on is falling in love with the braw Highlander. And as they ride farther into enemy lands, they cannot ignore the intensity of the passion simmering between them, though it could very well destroy everything they have worked so hard to preserve.

When Angus Og MacDonald, Lord of Islay agrees to harbor Robert the Bruce from the clutches of King Edward, he becomes an outlaw of the English crown. They sail to Ireland, seeking support from kin but are forced to flee for their lives. As Angus escapes, it is not a man he finds hidden in his birlinn. A wee wisp of a lass attacks like a screaming banshee with a battle axe in her hands. Then the wrath of God erupts in a violent storm, smashing the boat to smithereens. Now, Angus fights for survival, hell bent on saving them both. Anya O'Cahan awakes half drowned in a tiny chapel on a deserted isle with none other than Fairhair, the man with the devil's heart, the vile brother of the beast who killed her Da. Terrified out of her wits, she does everything in her power to escape the Highlander's clutches. But Anya's attempts are thwarted by the cunning, far too beautiful lord. Worse, Angus takes her before the King of Scots who seizes her as a political prisoner and thrusts her into the care of none other than Fairhair himself. Will this union of two hated rivals plagued by unwanted and uncanny attraction erupt in passion or war?

"A Plot that is filled with tension, excitement, and electrifying, passionate romance…" – Goodreads Reviewer When Sir Arthur Campbell leads an attack claiming Dunstaffnage Castle for Robert the Bruce, he is rewarded with both the keep and surrounding lands. As he assumes the lairdship, he finds a saboteur within his ranks. He sets a trap to ensnare the culprit, only to discover the rebel is none other than Rhona MacDougall-the only woman he has ever loved. After her clan is devastated by war, Rhona refuses to bend to Arthur's whims. Aye, he once stole her heart, but that was before he fought against her kin. When in his presence, she plays the demure lady, though behind the scenes, she's doing everything in her power to subvert his authority. And she thinks she has him fooled…until the hardened warrior beats the lass at her own game.
