A penniless lady. A broken warrior. A Highland passion.
A witty, sensual Regency Romance from Best Selling Author Emma V Leech
Miss Fredericka Wycliffe never expected a miracle -- but when her eccentric Uncle Phin leaves her his worldly goods, she suddenly finds herself the owner of a tiny Highland cottage and a modest inheritance. To a penniless young lady, it feels like fortune itself.

There is, of course, a catch.

To claim her inheritance, Fredericka must swear to continue her uncle's final mission: to bring spiritual enlightenment to his most challenging neighbour -- the fearsome Laird of the Moncreiffe clan, who broods in the half?ruined Tor Castle like a dragon guarding its hoard. It is the perfect setup for a Highland romance filled with grumpy?meets?sunshine sparks.

Ross Moncreiffe is a man carved from stone. Scarred by war, hardened by loss, and fiercely private, he wants nothing to do with an earnest English miss determined to save his soul. He has survived battlefields, betrayal, and brutal Highland winters. He is not prepared for Fredericka Wycliffe.

Unfortunately for him, Fredericka does not scare easily.

Armed with stubbornness, curiosity, and a wicked sense of humour, she finds tormenting the glowering Highlander far too delightful to resist. And the more time she spends in his company, the more she suspects there is something warm -- something tempting -- beneath all that granite. A wounded Highland laird and a fearless, sunshine?bright heroine are a dangerous combination.

Besides... why does the man smell so distractingly of vanilla and cinnamon?

Ross is hiding a passion he'd rather die than reveal. Fredericka is determined to uncover it. And in the wilds of the Highlands, a battle of wills becomes something far more dangerous -- desire.

A fearless heroine, a wounded laird, and a clash that sparks like flint and steel -- perfect for readers who love Highland grump?and?sunshine, castle?set romance, slow?burn heat, and emotion beneath a warrior's armour.

* Warning: This book contains a careful selection of quiet determination, resolute tight-lipped-ness and (almost) insurmountable levels of tension. Although coupled with the presence of occasionally descriptive sexual encounters.
