Three battle weary Scotsmen return a slain village lass,
Lilliard, to Selkirk and discover a female toddler,
Josselin, alone while her mother is in battle against the
English. In England, Edward Armstrong sends his six-year-
old son, Andrew, with a parchment of his mercy killing of a
Scots female pleading for him to finish her suffering.
Returning home, he finds his father has hung himself over
the grief at what he was forced to do.
Now an adult, Andrew has taken the alias of Drew MacAdam,
seeking his revenge with the Scots by masquerading as a
Highlander and earning his living by taking their money on
wagers of golf. Highly skilled with the sword, Jossy is
serving Queen Mary in Edinburgh as a spy under the guise of
a beer wagon wench. Drew and Jossy are destined to distract
each other, unaware of the history they share. Reluctantly
engaging in sensual loving-making, both become entangled in
Jossy's espionage. Jossy is erroneously pegged as a Scots
traitor, which has them fighting for their lives, wielding
their swords and their clever minds as they devise a plan
of survival.
If anyone can compose a thrilling historical saga of the
war between England and Scotland and still fill it with
love and excitement throughout, it's Kira Morgan. Be
prepared for scalding heat between the characters, along
with their rocky but enticing relationship. This is
definitely a page-turner with surprises at every turn.
Don't miss this one!
All her life, Josselin Ancrum has been trained for combat,
hoping to exact vengeance for her heroic mother, who was

charm distracts her from her mission.
Shrouded by Secrecy
On the surface, Drew MacAdam may appear to be nothing more
than a carefree chamption, but his heart harbors a dark
secret: This Highland hero is actually a skilled English
soldier with a hatred for war and for the Scottish. Yet
from the moment he meets the feisty Jossy, he's captured
by her fiercely loyal heart. He's determined the honey-
haired lass will be his ultimate prize - until the tragedy
of their entwined legacies is reealed. Are these star-
crossed lovers to be divided by their pasts? Or will they
be...
