One forbidden kiss sets them on a path from which there's no return.
In a desperate final attempt to force her cruel betrothed to call off their arranged marriage, Arieen Fleming deliberately creates a public scandal. Aware she'll likely be shunned by Society and remain unmarried, she kisses a dashing swashbuckler at a masked ball. What she doesn't anticipate is her powerful fascination and sensual reaction to Coburn Wallace. And she most certainly doesn't foresee her father casting her out as a result of her madcap scheme.
Coburn Wallace is a man who enjoys life and women to the fullest. As cousin and second-in-command to a laird, he has no need or desire to marry and produce an heir. When a beautiful female pirate demands he kiss her, who is he to refuse such an unexpected gift? Upon learning Arieen's been disowned and is destitute, he's seized with an inexplicable urge to protect her even as his honor demands he marry Arieen for his unwitting contribution to her ruination.
Arieen has no choice but to accept Coburn's offer, and though they can't deny their overwhelming, mutual attraction, dare they hope for more? Can attraction blossom into love in a marriage neither wanted?
For an enthralling, emotional Scottish Highland adventure you won't want to put down, read this second book in the Heart of a Scot Series.
Though this book is part of a series, it can easily be read as a stand-alone novel.
To Redeem a Highland Rogue is book two in the Heart of a Scot series by Collette Cameron. This is a wonderful story and fits like a perfect puzzle piece with the first book in the series To Love a Highland Laird. Although this is a standalone, it is so much richer to read To Love a Highland Laird first and then move on to this book. I absolutely adored the hero in this story, Coburn Wallace. There are so many tender, sweet, romantic scenes.
“He breathed her name, a reverent, seductive purr and tenderly palmed her cheek. Laird and saints and angels help her. ‘Do ye ken yer eyes are sparklin’ with longin’, leannan?’ He pressed his mouth to her forehead, her nose, and finally her lips.” Heart pounding sweet romance. I laughed and sighed my merry way through this book.
