In TEMPTATION OF A HIGHLAND SCOUNDREL, Kendrew Macintosh's reputation precedes him: he wields an ax with deathly precision, strikes fear into his enemies, and lusts after beautiful women. But Kendrew has never met someone whose passion rivals his own-until an unexpected encounter with a mysterious woman. Unfortunately, he soon discovers that the vixen is Isobel Cameron, daughter of an enemy clansman. Their relationship is forbidden and Kendrew breaks away immediately. Isobel has her own scheme. She has lusted after Kendrew for some time and plans to draw the fierce warrior back into her arms. But in the darkness, villainous forces are at play—an enemy is determined to keep the two lovers apart, even if it means death.

Arabella of Kintail sets out to find her own husband when she realizes her father scares away all her suitors, and her first objective is a pilgrimage to the faraway Seal Isles to seek St. Egberts help on her quest. That crafty meddler Devorgilla and her fox-companion Somerled prod a lusty and impoverished but honorable laird, Darroc the MacConacher, into rescuing Arabella when her ship is rammed by bloodthirsty Vikings. While she recovers from her wounds and enchants his subjects, Darroc must choose between the satisfaction of a long-awaited vengeance on her father and the lure of a forbidden love. Welfonders return to Kintail and its Highlanders offers another delightfully swashbuckling adventure for hero and heroine alike as she continues to weave magical tales of redemption, love, and loyalty amid the challenges of life in glorious, perilous mid-fourteenth-century Scotland.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2009, American Library Association.)
