Their attraction is forbidden
All Highland warrior Gavin Patrick wants is to get back to his native Scotland. But before he can leave the battlefield, he’s given a final mission—escort Lady Marie Colette to her fiancé. Under no circumstances is he to lay hands on the beautiful, clever-tongued heiress…no matter how desperate the temptation.
Their desire, undeniable
Forced to pose as a married couple to make their escape from France, Gavin and Marie Colette find themselves thrown into peril…and each other’s arms. As the danger mounts, so does their forbidden passion. But it isn’t until Marie Colette is taken from him that Gavin is forced to decide—is he willing to lose the woman who stole his heart, or will he jeopardize his honor, defy his promise, and steal her in return?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In Forester's captivating novel set in 14th-century Europe, the Duc de Bergerac asks Highlander Sir Gavin Patrick to take his daughter, Lady Mary Collette, from France to Scotland to wed the Baron of Kintail. From the outset, Collette seeks to prove to Gavin that she is more than just another beautiful, shallow aristocrat. With the French at war with the English and Collette's enormous dowry making them an attractive target for thieves, the two are in for a dangerous ride. These truly engaging and physically attractive protagonists are instantly drawn to one another, and their mutual affection grows stronger as each is forced to make sacrifices for the other during the perilous journey. Forester (A Winter Wedding) keeps the effortless plot moving at a swift pace. Readers will be mesmerized from the very first page.
