The Beast of Lismore Abbey
Lara, a homeless peasant without family or surname, flees to the Selkirk forest after surviving the siege of Lochmaben. Bereft of all she held dear, she leads a bleak existence, numb to joy or connection. Rumors of the feared Beast of Lismore Abbey reach the forest, but Lara's encounter reveals a captivating man, Magnus Matheson. Entranced by Lara's aloof charm, Magnus offers her refuge at Lismore Abbey, promising freedom from fear and sorrow. Despite her reluctance, Lara finds herself drawn to Magnus, torn between her past pain and the possibility of love. Can Magnus help her rediscover the courage to open her heart once more?
The Lion of Blacklaw Tower
John Craig and Ava Guthrie are indebted to each other, each saving the life of the other. Ava's heroic act has made her a fugitive, compelling John to insist she flee with him. Their shared kiss before John's near execution adds to the complexity of their situation. Despite Ava's reluctance to leave her home and John's gruff demeanor, there's an underlying vulnerability that suggests a deeper connection between them. Pursued by an ambitious sheriff, John, and Ava, and their companions, navigate treacherous terrain while evading capture. Caught between loyalty to the king and newfound feelings for Ava, John faces a crucial decision that could change their fates forever.

After inheriting Gladstone Castle upon the deaths of her father and brother, Catherine Dersey finds herself at odds with her uncles, who threaten her rightful claim.
