Heather and the Highlander by Elizabeth Cole

Can an English wallflower survive on the Scottish moors?

Heather is a spitfire disguised as a spinster. Unwilling to face a marriage to a loathsome man, she does the only sensible thing…she runs away to Scotland! Unfortunately, before she even crosses the border, her coach is held up and a dashing Scotsman rides to her rescue.

Niall MacKenzie will gamble on nearly anything, but he wouldn’t have bet on finding a bonny blossom of a lady in the middle of the high road. But Heather proves to be much more than a pretty face, and when he hears her tragic tale, Niall makes a mad proposal: marry him instead!

Can a simple yes solve all of Heather’s troubles? Of course not, and soon the couple find themselves in a whirlwind of family drama, passionate embraces, and hidden dangers. Heather must draw on her wit and the advice of her best friends from Wildwood Hall to get through this thorny path to true happiness with her daring highlander.
