At the age of nine, Caitrin Fletcher was sent by her father to foster with a neighbouring clan, the Lathans. Over the years there, she had made a true friend in Jamie Lathan, until fear for her safety had forced them to return her to her father. Now Caitrin is all grown up and her father is negotiating her betrothal to the MacGregor, a very powerful clan. Her father warns her to do her duty to her clan and not let anyone hear of her silly ways - meaning her ability to sense when someone is lying. Determined to do what is right for her family, Caitrin is willing to marry a stranger, even though her heart will always yearn for her old friend Jamie.
Needing an escort for Caitrin, Lathan has sent Jamie to deliver her to MacGregor, and also to get MacGregor to sign a peace treaty for the clans. When Jamie and Caitrin reunite, it is not long before their feelings flare to life. But Jamie knows that he has a role to fulfill, as does Caitrin, and they try to steady their hearts. But when MacGregor begins to show his true colours, and evidence of a murder from long ago, resurfaces in the MacGregor keep, will Jamie be able to protect the woman he loves so deeply? And as Caitrin tries to save both her father, and Jamie, will she be forced to sacrifice herself?
HIGHLAND TROTH by Willa Blair is an exciting, romantic, historical tale full of angst, action and searing hot passion. Caitrin is so brave and strong as she is willing to sacrifice everything for those she loves, while never giving up hope. Jamie is the ultimate hero - sexy, brooding, protective and yet so tender where Caitrin is concerned. With plenty of adventure and the twist of an old murder, HIGHLAND TROTH by Willa Blair, kept me hooked from beginning to end. A wonderful Highland romance.
Years ago, after tragedy struck Jamie Lathan's family,
fosterling Caitrin Fletcher was sent home, out of danger.

lose
her again. The secret he hides, however, may prevent any
chance for a future with her. Can Jamie find a way to
claim
her himself without starting a war involving three clans?

father wants and her feelings for Jamie, the lad sheβs
loved
for years. When she meets the man her father has chosen,
her
secret Highland talent tells her he cannot be trusted. Can
she refuse the powerful lord without revealing how she
knows
he's lying...about nearly everything?
