MacFARLAND'S LASS

The Scottish Lasses - Book 1

When Florie Gilder, the jeweler to Queen Mary, runs afoul of the law, she flees to sanctuary, never imagining she'll fall in love with huntsman Rane MacFarland, the man hired to keep her prisoner.

Meet the lasses in the world of Mary Queen of Scots...

Like the Scottish thistle, they're lovely yet tough, beautiful yet prickly, and only the strongest and wisest heroes

are able to elude their thorns to discover the tender blossom within.

A woman on the run...a man on the hunt.  He has forty days to earn her trust.  She has forty days to win his heart.  They have forty days to outwit their enemies.

When Florie Gilder, the once-respected jeweler to Queen Mary, claims sanctuary in an abandoned church for a crime she didn't commit, hunstman Rane MacFarland, a local hero of the common folk, vows to protect her.

But when his overlord charges him with preventing the fugitive lass's escape, Rane finds himself torn between duty and desire when he begins to fall for his spirited captive. And when powerful foes conspire to turn Rane and Florie against each other, they need courage, wits, and, above all, love, to survive.

"'Tis only a bruise," Rane said.

"Earned on my account," Florie muttered.

He flashed her a mischievous grin.  "Ye know, my mother always gave my bruises a kiss.  She assured me 'twould speed the healin'."

"Did she?"

"Oh, aye," he assured her with mock solemnity.

Her eyes were drawn instinctively to his mouth—his wide, elegant, sensual mouth with its seductive upward curve.  Faith, she wanted to kiss him.  She'd wanted to kiss him for days now.

He turned his head aside, presenting an injured cheek.  Though she'd hoped for more, the playful innocence in his eyes was irresistible.  With a brief smile, she inclined her head to bestow upon his cheek a chaste kiss of healing.

Her lips had scarcely grazed his cheek when he captured her face of a sudden between his hands.  His touch was not ungentle, but 'twas uncompromising.  A glimmer of danger gleamed in his eyes.

She gasped softly.  Their mouths inches apart, she felt his intent as if 'twere a living thing.

"Ye want it, as well," he whispered, and there was no need to clarify.  "Ye want this."
