Read an Excerpt
Her Scottish blood began tosimmer. The mettle of her ancestors wronged by backstabbing, licentious Englishbastards was rising to a call so deeply ingrained in her soul, she wanted tofight. It didn’t matter her mother was English, she was a Scottish bastardthrough and through as far as the ton was concerned. One of the scandaloussisters. Even Iseabail’s marriage to a duke hadn’t been able to stop the labelfrom spreading. Máira’s good-for-nothing husband had just added to her family’sruination by making her a walking, talking scandal of the worst kind. It was Ellison. There was nodoubt. It didn’t matter that he wore clothes she didn’t recognize, or that ahat sat low over his brow hiding most of his features. It didn’t matter thatthe sun was going down and the only light in town was coming from the windowsof The Happy Hag. It didn’t matter that she’d somehow slept the night and dayaway probably due to the bump on her head. She knew it was Ellison by thetune he whistled and poetical way he performed it. He’d whistled that same tunethe night of their wedding. How she remembered that she wasn’t certain, but itwas him, of that there was no doubt. He could whistle like no one she’d everheard in her life. Melodic, and sorrowful, his song spoke of love found andlost. It spoke to her soul, and she wanted to punch those sinful lips formaking her feel anything but hatred.About the Author:
