Taming the Highlander
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
Description
USA Today–Bestselling Author: "Expertly laced with danger and sweetened with sensuality, Taming the Highlander is an absolute delight." —Booklist
Lady Jocelyn MacCallum had always believed she would marry for love. But the price of her brother's freedom was to become fearsome Connor MacLerie's new bride—a bargain that could cost Jocelyn her life.
From the moment she looked into Connor's sternly handsome face, Jocelyn began to hope that the rumors surrounding his first wife's death were false. His reputation was as wild and untamed as the Scottish moors. Would she find a way to reach the man beneath that forbidding exterior?
"A sharp-tongued and sharp-witted heroine clashes romantically with a dark and dangerously sexy hero in Brisbin's latest captivating medieval romance." —Booklist
"Brisbin excels at immersing readers in history and bringing her characters to life." —RT Book Reviews

Labeled the Beast and feared throughout the land, Connor MacLerie, now laird of his clan, needs an heir, and for that he needs a bride. But with his reputation for cruelty and the rampant belief that he had killed his first wife for not pleasing him, finding a willing lass will not be easy. So an unwilling one must do. Jocelyn MacCallum, outB-spoken and occasionally defiant, is not exactly what Connor had expected, but she is exactly what he needs. A hero plagued by guilt and regret and a heroine courageous enough to love him eventually resolve all issues and find happiness and the answer to a tragic mystery in this lusty tale of 14th-century Scotland. Brisbin ("The Maid of Lorne") lives in Berlin, NJ.Copyright 2006 Library Journal, LLC Used with permission.

Laird Connor MacLerie needs a new wife. However, since many in Scotland believed that he played a role in the mysterious death of his first wife, there is a distinct dearth of women willing to wed him. Now in order to save her brother, who has been taken hostage by Connor, and her clan, who desperately needs the food and men Connor offers as an additional wedding bonus, Jocelyn MacCallum agrees to marry the "Beast of the Highlands." As Jocelyn sets about earning a place for herself in her new home, she learns more about her enigmatic new husband. Soon what began as a reluctant marriage of convenience becomes something quite different--and far more passionate. A sharp-tongued and sharp--witted heroine clashes romantically with a dark and dangerously sexy hero in Brisbin's latest captivating medieval romance. Expertly laced with danger and sweetened with sensuality, " Taming" " the" " Highlander" is an absolute delight. (Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2006, American Library Association.)
