Synopsis

A year ago, Sabella Lockhart lived in sheltered gentility as the sister of a Scottish lord. Then her brother's shocking crimes came to light, leaving her with nothing but horrifying memories, unpayable debts, and a blackened name. Before she leaves Scotland, she must face the family he harmed most: the MacPhersons. But when a Highland robbery takes everything but the gown on her back, she's forced to accept help from the MacPherson who despises her more than any other. The one man she can't forget.

Alexander MacPherson hasn't forgotten Sabella Lockhart. She's the reason he was shot, the reason he endured a hellish recovery, the reason he hasn't slept soundly in a year. So, when she turns up stranded and penniless in the village tavern, he offers her a position—as his maid. Nothing could be more satisfying than having her sleeping under his roof and following his commands. Ruthless? Absolutely.

When Sabella rises to his challenge, her fire brings Alexander to his knees. But she doesn't know how ruthlessly he'll fight to keep an angel by his side. Or how dangerous a devil can be when the woman he wants is threatened by a past that won't stay buried.

Contains mature themes.

About Elisa Braden

Reading romance novels came easily to Elisa Braden. She's been doing it since she was twelve. Writing them? That took a little longer. After graduating with degrees in creative writing and history, Elisa spent entirely too many years in "real" jobs, writing T-shirt copy . . . and other people's resumes . . . and articles about giftware displays. But that was before she woke up and started dreaming about the very unreal job of being a romance novelist. Frankly, she figures better late than never.

Elisa lives in the gorgeous Pacific Northwest, where you're constitutionally required to like the colors green and gray. Good thing she does. Other items on the "like" list include cute dogs, strong coffee, and epic movies. Of course, her favorite thing of all is hearing from readers who love her characters as much as she does.

I never have a lot of coherent thoughts after reading an Elisa Braden book, this wasn’t an exception either.

This is where my journey with Elisa Braden ends. This book is fine, really. But I cannot cannot CANNOT stand the secret psycho murderer aspect EB puts into her books. It’s super annoying and just not my cup of tea. This one has it thrown in at the end and had me PIPING HOT MAD. Why, Elisa, why! It d......more
