The ferocious and virile Scottish highlander Angus MacDonald and his clan have accomplished a successful siege on his father's Kinloch Castle and claimed his rightful place as Laird of Kinloch. However, this was not forthcoming without the dead laird's daughter, Gwendolen MacEwen, and her brave attempt at defending her castle. Having a realistic dream prior to the attack, Gwendolen recognizes her battle-hewn "Lion" with the tawny mane immediately. Angus declares Gwendolen as his bride and future mother of the children commingling MacDonald and MacEwen blood in sealing the merging of the two clans. Gwendolen's resistance to succumbing to her fate keeps Angus on his toes and surprised at every turn.

CLAIMED BY THE HIGHLANDER is the second book in Julianne MacLean's Highlander Series and as exciting as the first. The saga features three fierce Highland warriors sworn to protect their land and those they love, each has his own unique story. Angus and Gwendolen are passionate characters thoroughly reveling in their lust and eventual intoxicating love for one another. I am anxiously awaiting the third passionate tale in this series to be released later this year. This is one I will not miss!
