The Secret in a Lord’s Eyes by Aria Norton

Lady Audrina Watson returns to Scotland after ten years, only to unexpectedly discover Laird Brian Campbell’s captivating presence. Her father’s prejudice against Brian’s people however, is an abrupt disruption of their potentially dreamy romance. Fortunately, her kind heart helps her see beyond her father’s disdain and Audrina’s affection for Brian only deepens. Yet, a future with him would be full of doubt and obstacles…
If she cannot change her father’s mind, not even a courtship will be possible, let alone a marriage…
The sudden death of his brother-in-law has left Laird Brian Campbell picking up the pieces and welcoming friends and relatives to pay their respects. The one he dreads to see though, is Audrina’s father, Bartley Watson, who never loses a chance to be rude to him. Luckily, Audrina’s mesmerising presence reminds him of a long lost hope against prejudice. Brian feels alive when he is with her, but when alone, the uncertainty of their future overpowers him.

How could he ever court a lady, whose father hates the Scots more than anything?
Young love blossoms between Brian and Audrina, and they desire nothing more than to be together. Yet, without Audrina’s father’s blessing, their happy future can never be. Will Bartley Watson stubbornly refuse his daughter’s chance at happiness? If only there was something the young couple could do to fight his prejudice… Could love truly conquer all, or is Audrina destined to return to England alone and utterly heart-broken?
