Descripción editorial
A forced marriage. A sworn enemy. A passion that could end a clan war—or spark one.
In the unforgiving Highlands of 16th-century Scotland, peace comes at a steep price. When two rival clans threaten to plunge the region into renewed bloodshed, the King’s Regent delivers an ultimatum: their heirs must wed, or war will decide their fate.
Ailis Robertson never dreamed her future would be tied to a MacPherson—especially not Bhaic, a brooding warrior with ice in his stare and battle in his blood. She’s proud, clever, and loyal to a fault, but now she must marry into the clan she’s been raised to despise.
Bhaic MacPherson didn’t want a bride, let alone the daughter of his father’s enemy. Yet from the moment he meets Ailis, her fire unsettles him. This is no meek lass—she challenges him, stirs him, and may be the only woman who can match his strength.
Their union is meant to be political. But as clan tensions simmer and trust builds slowly, duty turns to desire. And desire becomes a dangerous game—one with the power to either heal a generations-old feud or destroy them both.
If you love arranged marriage romances with Highland heat, fierce heroines, and the enemies-to-lovers tension that keeps the pages turning, Highland Spitfire delivers a smoldering escape.
Join thousands of fans who’ve fallen hard for Mary Wine’s Highland Weddings series. Highland Spitfire stands as a must-read for lovers of Scottish historical romance, arranged marriage stories, and strong female leads.
Perfect for fans of Monica McCarty, Julie Garwood, and the thrill of two hearts colliding in the wild beauty of the Highlands.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Two enemies unite in marriage to prevent more bloodshed in Wine's first Highland Spitfire novel, set in late 16th-century Scotland. The Robertsons and the MacPhersons have been at odds for years. Finally, Ailis Robertson accedes to the wishes of the Earl of Morton and marries Bhaic MacPherson. Despite the bad blood between their families, Bhaic and Ailis are undeniably attracted to each other. When pride keeps them apart and Ailis moves back in with her father, Bhaic swoops in and takes her to his home as his bride. But the residents of MacPherson Castle are not friendly toward a former Robertson, and they constantly challenge Ailis's authority as lady of the house. Ailis is an admirable protagonist whose desire to exercise her independence is at odds with the submissive role required of many women in her time period. She insists that Bhaic woo her until she willingly consummates their marriage, adding sensual tension to the story. Wine's attention to historical detail breathes life into this captivating tale.
