Defended By the Warrior Highlander by Ann Marie Scott

Saving her was reckless, what comes next is madness.

Camilla Belmont is the beautiful daughter of an English Colonel. While most girls are looking for a husband, she is learning how to wield a sword, dreaming of fighting the Scots that she hates so much, one day.
Laird Reuben McLeod is a tall, muscular Highlander, famous among men for his unparalleled fighting skills, and among ladies for his tempting eyes and angelic face.
When Camilla’s father goes to war against the Scots, she will hide in the carriage, trying to participate in a battle that will eventually turn into doom for the English.
Reuben will find Camilla in the battlefield alone and shocked after witnessing her father’s death. Struck by her beauty, he decides to help her return home safely.
Unfortunately, Laird MacDougall, Reuben’s sworn enemy, will not allow that. He wants to steal Camilla from him and ask the English for ransom after the maiden satisfies the needs of his young sons!
Reuben denies, and MacDougall backs off for the moment, but Reuben knows he will return fiercer and with more men, so he makes a bold plan to save Camilla.
To execute it, he will have to risk not only his reputation and Lairdship but their very lives as well.
