Four Horsemen of the Highlands

When love collides with vengeance, only the strong will survive...Scotland's throne has been stolen by a Pretender King who means to crush all those who oppose him. Four Highlanders refuse to yield. Hell-bent on revenge, they vow to destroy the Pretender and restore Scotland to its rightful King. Laird Domnall MacAyre is out for blood. He bears a personal vendetta against the murderous traitor who helped the Pretender ascend. But when he tracks the traitor to a remote island keep, he finds the man’s sister in his stead.

Gregor “the Black” MacLeod is on a mission. He has been tasked with raising an army to oust the Pretender King who usurped Scotland’s throne. But when he is met with naught but refusals, he must turn to his only asset - his brute strength. He spreads a wager through the Highlands - any man he defeats in single combat must pledge to stand against the Pretender. But when a bonny lass turns his challenge against him, he finds himself indebted to her service. Gregor intends to see his obligation through as swiftly as possible, but his heart may have other plans....

Highland warrior Tavish MacNeal is a wanted man. After narrowly escaping the Usurper King Balliol’s noose, his only hope of survival is to hide out in the Lowlands. He is just passing through Lorraine Bronson’s alehouse, but when a pack of Balliol’s soldiers give the widowed alewife trouble, he can’t help but intercede. So much for lying low. To protect them both, Lorraine claims they are husband and wife.

Artair MacKinnon will stop at nothing to dethrone the Usurper King Balliol. With his brother’s blood on the Usurper’s hands, Artair volunteers to scout Balliol’s base of operations ahead of a secret attack. But to avoid suspicion, his mission must be concealed as a diplomatic visit. He’s saddled with the gentle-bred yet headstrong Lady Sybil Douglas, acting as her bodyguard while she negotiates a truce. Her presence is supposed to give him cover, yet Sybil’s fiery beauty is a dangerous distraction. As the peril mounts, he finds himself falling for the one woman he can’t have.
