Anna Bradley: How to Lose a Laird, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Three unusually gifted sisters in Georgian Scotland must protect their family fortress from those who would steal it's rumored treasures---and their hearts---in this sweeping, adventure-filled, historical romance series for readers of India Holton, Lex Crocher, Manda Collins, and Evie Dunmore.

Despite their village's wild, insistent rumors, middle sister Freya MacLeod is no more a witch than her extraordinary siblings. Quiet and observant, she can't control the weather---although her magnificently skilled drawings often predict it. But now a very different sort of storm has besieged their home of Castle Cairncross. When Freya's fearless younger sister disappears and is accused of murder, Freya is determined to prove her innocence---and bring her back. That means matching wits with a warrior---no matter how dangerous he may
be . . .

A reluctant laird, Callum is glad to escape his clan's intrigues. But helping to protect Castle Cairncross as a favor to a friend is far more difficult than he thought. Especially when the seemingly timid Freya eludes him, his battle-honed instincts---and enrages the village into putting a bounty on both their heads . . .

As they flee, Freya is stunned to see how caring---and vulnerable---Callum can be. . . . But he must keep his growing feelings for her hidden in order to honor a secret promise to his clan. Yet as their peril increases, they may find that battling side-by-side will uncover something more precious than gold . . .
