Gwendolyn McClintock has no patience for love. With her tragic romantic past, how could she? Besides, now that she's been named guardian to her niece and nephew, her priorities must lie elsewhere. All she truly needs now is a fresh start-and she can think of no better place to get it than the Scottish Highlands. But the grand adventure she promised the children becomes a tangled muddle when her coach runs down a much-too-attractive rogue...

Dugall Ferguson is on the cusp of realizing his dream to become a spy when he's nearly trampled to death. He has no time for the remorseful and deliciously tempting woman responsible. But the fiery lass hasn't a clue about the peril awaiting her at her new home. She desperately needs his protection-and while he's no gentleman, he's not about to deny her anything she needs...or wants...

Their passion is irresistible. Their futures? Completely incompatible. Is happily ever after even possible for this pair of polar opposites?

Only if Gwendolyn's powerful enemy doesn't ruin everything first...

Wishes and Wonder is the ninth book in Collette Cameron’s Highland Heather Romancing A Scot Series. I have read all of Cameron’s works and this one does not disappoint. In fact, I truly believe this one to be her most outstanding work. She mixes romance with comedy and intrigue. Southern belle Gwendolyn McClintock is escorting her nephew Jeremiah to Scotland to claim his place as the new Laird of Suttford House. On the way, she and her small group encounter a wounded Scot Dugall Ferguson along the road. When her British driver panics and runs over the man, Gwendolyn feels obligated to help him. And so begins a hilarious journey for both Gwendolyn and Dugall Ferguson – the hapless victim. I loved Gwendolyn’s southern drawl and her funny quips. Dugall is the perfect giant hero. This book is a must read.
