While visiting her uncle's home, Catriona "Riona" Duff finds herself
kidnapped in the middle of the night by a burly Scot and taken to
the Highlands. Hugh McCallum insists their fathers bound them to
each other as children to share use of the McCallum land with a
dowry promised to the Clan McCallum. At the Earl's refusal to
honor the contract, forcibly taking his bride was the only option.
The fact that Riona and her cousin are both named Catriona and he
had the wrong bride, wasn't to be believed by the rugged
Highlander.
Forced to share the Laird's quarters at Larig, Riona's anger soon
turns to desire for the handsome leader. Trying to persuade his
intended bride of their commitment, Hugh begins to also feel
something strange developing. He never thought the arranged
bride would be such a beauty. Unable to convince the stubborn
leader he has the wrong bride, all Riona can do is wait it out until
they hear from her uncle of the deception he has arranged. Once
the clan learns the truth, betrayal and disgust will be directed at
their leader. Finding a way to fulfill his commitment to the contract
with honor but still keep the beauty that has stolen his heart seems
beyond reach.
With desperate passion and a will to fulfill his contract, this bold
Highlander finds no difficulty in falling in love with the bride he
abducted. THE WRONG BRIDE is the first book by the gifted Gayle

people. Now he's starting to crave Riona for her own sake,
but her true identity jeopardizes his clan's contract. And
unless she chooses to risk all to be his bride, he'll lose
the only thing he prizes more than the lands he's fought so
hard to save—the passionate marriage they could have together.
