Safe in her Highlander’s arms!

After discovering her role in her father’s plot to destroy another clan, Sorcha MacMillan risks her life to go into hiding. Her safety relies on her disguise, but she is drawn to a man who could see through her...

Unknown to Sorcha, Alan Cameron has been sent to track her down. He’s attracted to the woman in disguise. Even after learning her true identity, he can’t overcome his instinct to protect her. No matter the danger, he will keep Sorcha safe...and claim her as his bride!

Sorcha could not explain her reaction to Alan Cameron.

Of all the men here, he was the most dangerous to her. God forbid she should slip up and err in front of him. What had James said about him? Ah, aye, that he was a tracker. He found and sorted clues to find missing things and people.

All the enjoyment she’d felt during the last few hours soured as she realised he was the worst possible man for her to spend too much time around. Her inexperience with men while under her father’s protection had left her with little knowledge of how to protect herself from him.

Sorcha understood the danger of him. Of his appeal. Of his smile. Of the way he met her gaze and stared back. But for tonight she would allow herself the weakness of savouring those few special moments during which he’d been with her.

Author Note

While I was researching I came across information about the three-centuries-long feud between two powerful Scottish clans–the Mackintoshes and the Camerons–and knew I’d found a wonderful source of stories. That’s how A Highland Feuding began–as a way to share many generations, many locations and a lot of history with my readers.

Alan Cameron appeared in the first book in this series, Stolen by the Highlander, as a young man, and he even tried to be the hero in the most recent one, Kidnapped by the Highland Rogue. I took that as a message that Alan needed to be a hero in his own right. So here is his story. Though you will find some familiar faces, there are some intriguing new ones that might show up in their own stories, too.

Sorcha MacMillan is a woman lost–and she must not be found. Of course there’s nothing more enticing to a man experienced in finding things than that. Drawn in by her vulnerability, Alan discovers many of his own secrets in this story as he seeks out Sorcha’s truth.

I hope you enjoy Claiming His Highland Bride!

PS–I’ve just got home from a wonderful trip to Scotland, where I had the chance to visit Cameron lands and the Clan Museum. Let’s just say that my visit and my sightseeing and research have inspired many stories. See you soon!

This last year I have been very busy with the two very special girls I call the ‘Brisbin Princesses’–Alexis and Sydney, my first two granddaughters. Watching them grow has been amazing for me. Now, with more grandbabies expected in 2017–just around the release of this book–I’d like to dedicate this book to them.

To my grandchildren Alexis and Sydney–and the new ones coming–I wish you happiness, health, success and lots of friends and family around you at all times. But mostly I wish you lots of love and books!

Prologue

Castle Sween, Lands of Knap, Argyll,

Scotland—summer, ad 1370

‘Sorcha, come and sit with me a while.’

Sorcha glanced over at her mother’s companion for permission before approaching her bed. Anna nodded, so Sorcha climbed up on the high rope-strung mattress, having a care not to sit too close. Her mother had been ill and failing for years, but the last few weeks had brought a sunken and grey look to her face. From Anna’s grim expression and her mother’s glassy, weak gaze, Sorcha understood that Erca MacNeill had little time left living on this earth.
