In the Highlands of Scotland, a fierce Laird must protect his land and his heart from a strong-willed beauty who threatens both.
Scotland 1813:
Highlanders are her weakness.
Hannah Dounreay has no time for suitors who only seem interested in her family's land, which she manages as well as any man. If she marries, she wants to be loved for the educated, independent woman she is. But when a strong, silent—and spectacularly handsome—Highlander saves her from a violent attack, her heart is stirred. Who is this man? And if he asks for Hannah's hand, will she be able to resist him?
Love is the most powerful weapon of all.
Alexander Lochlannach, Laird of Dunnet, has no time to lose. The Highlands are in an uproar as clans battle for land—without mercy—and Alexander can't afford to fall for the wildly attractive, strong-willed Hannah. What's more, he has a desperate secret, one that could destroy them both. But as their attraction turns into an all-consuming passion, Alexander has no choice but to prove to Hannah that he's the only man for her—body and soul...in Hannah and the Highlander.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
York's first Untamed Highlanders novel, set in 1813 Scotland, is bold and steamy. Hannah is the smart, stubborn eldest daughter of a respected baron. She has always secretly hoped for a marriage of love and passion, but at the ripe old age of 22, she has begun to despair. When she sees Alexander, another baron, from afar, his towering strength and chiseled good looks captivate her, and she agrees to be his wife after her safety is threatened by a devious suitor. Hannah soon learns that Alexander is a man of few words, which irritates her until she discovers the reason behind his quiet ways. Despite his gruff exterior and her headstrong manner, Hannah and Alexander slowly build an attachment that is realistic and heartfelt, especially as his foes grow increasingly brazen. The pair's chemistry, intense from the first moment their eyes lock, results in numerous sizzling hot encounters that satisfy, despite some over-the-top descriptions. Sexual tension, jilted suitors, and power-hungry men fill the pages of this entertaining tale, which is packed with passion and intrigue.
