It started with a knife to the throat … When a young clan-chief travels to meet his bride-to-be, their violent first encounter ignites a tempestuous relationship—one that risks ending in tragedy. High stakes collide with epic romance in Medieval Scotland. Makenna MacGregor is about to slit a man’s throat, when she discovers he’s not one of the hated Campbells but her betrothed. Unfortunately, Bran Mackinnon isn’t quick to forgive and forget. Worse still, her husband-to-be is prickly, proud, and dislikes the idea of having a warrior wife. But Makenna won’t put down her sword. Not for any man, especially with the enemy baying at her clan’s borders. Their marriage risks becoming a battlefield—until a vicious attack brings them together against a common foe. Suddenly, they must both face what’s really worth living, and dying, for. Full of impossible choices, forbidden love, and steam, Jayne Castel’s new series, HIGHLAND SCANDAL, is set on Medieval Isle of Mull and follows three unconventional sisters, and the men who put everything on the line for them.
