Publisher Description
Wager of the Heart was previously released as part of the Once Upon a Highland Glen anthology in 2019. There is no added content, no bonus scenes. It is a novella.
When Graham Keith wakes after a night of debauchery and drink, he finds he’s not only won a very comely lass in a game of chance, he’s also married her. Worse yet, his pretty bride comes with three small children.
He is Leelah MacDonald’s last vestige of hope. She’d make a deal with the devil if she had to, in order to get her children back into the safe and loving arms of her family. But Graham Keith has no desire for a wife or children, as they’d interfere with his gambling and drinking and roaming ways.
But the lass is desperate—so desperate she is willing to put her life, and the lives of her children, in the hands of a gambler and drunk. Ignoring the little voice inside his head that warns him to run far and fast away from the woman, he listens instead to the honorable warrior of his heart.
How hard could it be to see the lovely Leelah and her three children back to Clan Hay?
Customer Reviews
Loved everything about it!
This is a book of how guilt and fear can rule your life and leads to a downward spiral of self loathing and unworthiness.
Graham Keith has never forgiven himself for a decision made years ago that caused a unforeseen tragedy. The past decade he’s done nothing but drink, gamble and womanizing.
Leelah MacDonald’s life took a drastic turn the day her husband died. Left with four young children, a farm and her mean brother in-law she’s left with very little hope. A gambling duet appears to be her only salvation, Graham Keith.
She knew him to be a honorable man she’d seen years before. Hoping that man still exists somewhere inside the drunken gambler.
Love is found when you lest expect it and during some of the most difficult times. When the future you dreamed of but lost is in the palm of your hand do you except forgiveness or let that dream slip through your fingers?
Loved this book and the many characters
