Highland Bride (Scottish Fire Series, Book 3)

To unite their clans, Kara Gordon is bound by a marriage contract to the McKie family. But when her intended dies in a bloody mountain skirmish, she is forced to marry his heir and younger brother, Henry, a mere twelve-year-old boy. Fearing their union—and its consummation—Kara is relieved that the new earl is more in need of a mother's care than a lover's touch.

Yet one man longs for Kara's caress—Henry's advisor, protector, and half-brother—Ian. As Ian's attraction to Kara dares to flame into scandalous desire, enemies inside and outside the castle fight to remove Henry from the throne—by any means necessary.

But Kara, who has never once known the love of another, cannot deny her fiery passions. Only Ian's undying devotion can embolden her to face the future—one that may destroy everyone she holds dear.
