Lady Isobel is a Norman laird’s daughter, living near the Scots border where her father, Lord Pembroke, is trying to keep the peace. But her mother was a Highlander and the man Isobel loves most of all is Laird Marcus McEwan, who has been bringing news of her mother’s people for years. But now Isobel’s father wishes her wed to an English nobleman, who will carry on his title. Isobel will wed no other man but her heart’s desire—and that is one braw Highlander from her mother’s homeland.
Laird Marcus McEwan has loved the feisty lass forever. For years, Marcus has tried to convince Lord Pembroke to allow him to wed his daughter. But the Norman lord will not allow it. Then ambushes and murders make it too dangerous for Marcus to reach a peaceful resolution.
Nothing goes as planned and keeping the lass for his own is fraught with danger, as they try to determine who was behind the killings. Isobel and Marcus will do everything in their power to ensure they are together as they have always vowed they would be.

Excerpt: Her Highland
Hero by Terry Speark
Och, Marcus could not be
the bearer of bad news when she could be near death herself. He would wait
until they were safe and dry and warm again. He wanted to wait until they were
home in the Highlands, but he felt she should know of her da's death before
that.
Would it ease her
suffering if he told her the whole truth? That her da was not who she thought
he was? He wasn't sure that was something he should speak of now. Mayhap never.
She believed she was the daughter of a Norman earl when she was truly the bastard
daughter of a Highland laird. He wanted her to know she was all Highlander, no
part of her heritage being of Norman descent. On the other hand, the knowledge
she was a bastard and not an earl's daughter, raised by a man not her da, and
shunned by the one who was—might not be the most welcome of tidings for the
lass at this point.
She didn't say anything
more, and he lapsed back into silence.
After they had traveled
for some miles, Isobel warily asked, "Why are we not headed for Pembroke
Castle?"
