About this ebook

A fateful encounter at Edinburgh Castle leaves two sworn enemies seductively entwined in this historical romance from the USA Today–bestselling author.
 With her imprisoned mother’s liberty at stake, Jacobite sympathizer Diana Maclean steals into the dungeon of Edinburgh Castle and pulls off an audacious switch. But her bold escapade comes at a price. With her own freedom now hanging in the balance, Diana is unexpectedly rescued by the mysterious Lord Calder. She’s instantly drawn to her kind savior, unaware that he is Rory Campbell, of the Campbell clan—her family’s most treacherous enemy. The youngest baron of the Scottish Court of Exchequer, Rory manages the Highland estates that were forfeited to the Crown. But the bonny lass he just liberated haunts him. As Scotland prepares for another uprising, their paths cross again. Rory finds himself yearning for Diana, and hoping to protect her family, too. Can they change the course of Scottish history by rising up against a legacy of hate . . . even as they surrender to glorious, liberating love?
  Highland Secrets is the 2nd book in the Highland Series, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
