The Highlander's Return : A Novel

A bold warrior who never expected to marry meets his match in a fiery young widow in this latest installment of New York Times bestselling author Lynsay Sands’s Highland Brides series, perfect for fans of Outlander. Graeme Gunn is a warrior through and through. Content for his brother William to hold the title of clan chief, he left home years ago, battling his way through Scotland as a mercenary.

When news arrives of William’s death, Graeme is forced to return to everything he left behind, including his brother’s shy young widow, Annella Mackay.

But the beautiful, determined woman he finds at the keep is nothing like the quiet virgin he remembers…Annella Mackay once had hopes for a loving marriage, a dream that shattered when her husband abandoned her.

Hiding her pain, she took on the responsibilities of both laird and lady for the Gunn clan with spirit.

But when she learns her husband is dead, she realizes she finally has a chance at a new dream, and she won’t let anything deter her plans.

Not even Graeme, no matter how strong her attraction to the gruff and stubborn warrior…It's a clash of will and passion unlike anything they’ve known, especially when Graeme decides to stay and claim his title.

But as the clan faces the threat of a hidden enemy, Graeme and Annella must fight for their home together…and they realize they are also fighting for their love.
