Beloved highlander

The opposing quests of two mighty-willed lovers is at the heart of In the Highlander's Bed, by New York Times best-selling author Cathy Maxwell. Whoever possesses the Sword of the MacKenna will rule the clan, and Gordon must lay claim to it before all of his people are driven from their lands. He kidnaps the Duke of Colster's sister-in-law as leverage to get the sword back. He hasn't, however, reckoned with the saucy, independent Constance Cameron, an American whose careful plan to escape this miserable land has been thwarted by the obnoxious Highlander. As they fall in love, each must re-evaluate the cost of freedom. This rich and layered tale is brimming with juicy sexual tension and the challenging realities of the times.
