Lady Juliet Kingston did not expect to find love in the Scottish Highlands. Sent by the king to marry a laird’s son, she had no expectations until she met the strong and stubborn Ross MacLaren.

EXCERPT #1



“In two days, we will be wed.” He took her hand. “Do ye think ye may come to love me?”



Love? No one had ever spoken so directly to her. “Um.” She sank her teeth into her bottom lip. “I just met you.”



“Aye, I ken.” He placed his hand around the back of her neck. “And so, I ask permission to kiss ye.”



“Kiss me?” Juliet’s mouth went dry. She wished she still had the glass of sweet wine in her hand. You are going to marry him. You have kissed John. You know what it is like. “Yes, you may.”



He leaned in closer. The other hand went around her waist, bringing her to him. She felt his breath on her cheek, and the scent of ale was pleasant. His lips touched her face so lightly she jumped.



“I willna hurt ye,” he whispered.



Juliet’s heart fluttered as she looked into his eyes. Green pools of summer, ones she could dive into and never come out. She nodded and placed her hand on his chest, feeling the hard muscle beneath the coat. She opened her mouth slightly to tell him she was all right, but instead found his lips on hers.



Ross tightened his grip on her, pulling her so close she fought for breath, yet she did not want him to stop. His lips felt soft against hers as he pushed her mouth open wider. She felt the tip of his tongue on hers. John had never kissed her like that. John!



Juliet pulled back, head spinning. Ross did not let go, still holding her close. He rested his chin on the top of her head, nuzzling her hair. “Ye taste of summer and honey.”



“I think you should give credit to the wine.” Juliet tried to laugh but could only think of the kiss. She wanted another.



“I will take ye to yer room.” Ross offered his arm. “Because if I dinna, we may have to marry tonight.”
