Until one day, the sought-out bride comes across Malcolm Lennox, a warrior from a friendly clan who looks like no other man.Malcolm is not only built like a beast and devilishly handsome, but also, he does not try to impress Edna with fake words and flattery like every other man does. Edna tries to flirt with him, but to her surprise, the warrior avoids talking to her although he is unmarried. After this embarrassment, Edna thinks it was wrong trying to open up, and she wishes never to see the man again.The fact that Malcolm has to stay at the McGregor castle for a while makes Edna desperate; how will she be able to see him daily? However, this will be the least of her problems as, while she is wandering alone away from the castle, men approach her, and everything goes dark…Edna hears someone fighting with her kidnappers, and she thinks for a moment that it is her old betrothed, but Malcolm has somehow been able to track her and save her.

This book has a few twists and surprises with in it and such a good read

When an author writes characters I don't know how they do it but this author did a good job of making you feel that you knew them and they were your friends. The scenes throughout the book were very descriptive you could feel how each character felt at the time the pain the confusion and the love. It starts out not as a happy book but ends up very happy in the end The circumstances to get there were Interesting But so enjoyable to read.

This book wasn’t bad but had a time line that was very convoluted as well as characters that should have been in the story and events that were out of sequence that it was like trying to put together a puzzle. Read all the books in order but they seemed to have so many missing peace’s, perhaps it was because the author never changed characters names and so who was where, what timeline were they

Ann Marie Scott has written a story that is filled with some twists and turns which also contained suspense, adventure and kidnapping. The characters were amazing and captivating. Edna lost her betrothed before they could be married. Malcolm had made his dying friend a promise to protect Edna. Then Edna is kidnapped!

Highlander’s Secret Protector

An evil Laird wanted Edna for his wife. She ended up with a secret protector. I cried and I smiled at some parts. It’s truly an amazing book.
