Laird Ian Wallace was appointed the Lairdship of clan Wallace by King Charles II after the death of his relative Douglas. Douglas was a cruel and evil Laird and ruled by fear and force. Shortly after arriving to claim the Lairdship he found out that they had a female prisoner being kept in the dungeon. Furious that he hadn’t been told immediately he went to the dungeon to see her and get her out of it. When he found out that she was daughter of Laird MacAlpin and that their 2 clans had been feuding forever. Faced with the dilemma of how to return her home without starting a new war from them saying that clan Wallace dishonoured MacAlpin’s daughter, Ian needed to come up with something fast but was totally against his council’s suggestion to force her to wed him because he did not want to be like his relative the former Laird Douglas Wallace. Find out if Ian can avoid a war between feuding clans or will war erupt again! This is an excellent book and one that will keep you reading I highly suggest it!

Ian & Rhona

Ian & Rhona, what an adventurous journey they had to get their love conquers all. This truly is a very good read, plenty of action especially when the bearded giant lost both hands 😂😂 that was a great visual. Again this is a very good read in this "Highland Sister's Secret Desires"Romance, don't make us wait to long the next sisters story. What happened with the brother and best friend?
