Lady Mirabelle MacLaren has found the perfect solution to rid her of an unwanted suitor....being ruined by his enemy! It has been many years since she first danced the reel with the handsome Sorley but she has never forgotten the effect he has on her. Mirabelle suspects that if Sorley knows how she truly feels for him and her reasons for walking away so many years ago, honor will get the best of him and he will not be a willing participant in her plan. Desperate to not land in the clutches of the despicable of Sir John Sinclair. If she is doomed to marry a man she finds repulsive, she will need memories of her time with Sorley to keep close to her heart and get her through a lifetime of misery.

TO LOVE A HIGHLANDER is a true gem of a book loaded with vivid imagery, Scottish lore and a touching "rags to riches" romance that is sure to tug at a few heartstrings. As the first full length book in Welfonder's newest series, Scandalous Scots, readers will enjoy reading about Stirling Castle and the Celtic history that the author so skillfully weaves into the tale. The secondary characters are a real delight and I look forward to finding out if any of them takes the spotlight in upcoming books. I anxiously await the second installment in this wonderful new series!
