(2016)(Book 22 in the Ghosts of Culloden Moor / Highlanders from the Mists of Time series)
A Novella by Diane Darcy
Read THE GATHERING first, to avoid confusion.
"Know that I am here to protect ye. Ye'll not suffer harm if ye stay with me."
He sounded stern, like he was expecting her to hotfoot it out of there, but she didn't need to be talked into keeping him around. She didn't want to be on her own with thugs running about.
"Sarah, ye are mine to care for. Do ye ken?"
The way he said it - like she was his, like he owned her now - filled her with conflicting emotions. Gratitude? Attraction? Relief? What she should feel was disdain for the way he looked at her with possession and satisfaction. She bit her lip as he waited for a reply. Finally she nodded. "Yes, I understand." No, she didn't understand this at all.
When fourth grade teacher Sarah Davis receives a mysterious package from her grandfather, she's confused. When she's snatched out of her classroom by thugs demanding said package, she just wants to escape and find her grandfather.
Highland Warrior and spy Murdoch Stirling thwarts a kidnapping and inserts himself into a dangerous situation. So far, so normal for him. He's willing to help Sarah recover her grandfather. Not only is it a lot more exciting than what he's been doing for the last few centuries, she belongs to him. In fact, even if she wants him to leave, he's not going anywhere.
Can a bad situation provide the backdrop for falling in love, or will their limited time be overshadowed by the threat of harm to her and her loved ones?
They have two days to find out.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
