  His Highland Lass (The Clan Sinclair, Book 1)

  Arranged to marry his stepbrother, Laird Tristan Mackay cannot take his eyes off of Lady Mairghread Sinclair. When things rapidly sour between Tristan's stepbrother, Sir Alan, and Lady Mairghread, will there be a way to end the ongoing feud between the Mackays and Sinclairs? Unassuming and friendly, Mairghread Sinclair is not prepared for the danger that awaits her while visiting the Mackay clan. Who wants Mairghread out of the way? Why would anyone want to harm her?

  Laird Tristan Mackay was not looking for a wife, but could Lady Mairghread Sinclair be the one to open his heart and bring peace to their clans or will their passion tear the two clans apart?

  Teaser from Celeste Barclay’s His Highland Lass

  "She entered the great hall like a strong spring storm in the northern most Highlands. Tristan Mackay felt like he had been blown hither and yon. As the storm settled, she left him with the sweet scents of heather and lavender wafting towards him as she approached. She was not a classic beauty, tall and willowy like the women at court. Her face and form were not what legends were made of. But she held a unique appeal unlike any he had seen before...

  Mairghread Sinclair was intended for his brother—his stepbrother, Alan. She and her father, Liam, and her four brothers approached with a contingency of guardsmen behind them. They had left even more guardsmen in the inner bailey attending to their horses. The Mackays and Sinclairs had not been on good terms of late, and an alliance between Tristan’s stepbrother and the Sinclair’s daughter was meant to create a truce between the two raiding clans. Within the last three years, numerous crofts and fields had been burnt by both sides and countless heads of cattle and sheep went back and forth between the two. However, when an out and out clash between raiders who met coincidentally one night left fifteen Sinclairs dead and eighteen Mackays dead or wounded, both chiefs decided that a truce was needed. The strongest way to secure that and to form an alliance was through marriage. As there were no eligible females in the Mackay chief’s family to marry off to one of the Sinclair brothers, it fell to Mairghread to marry a Mackay. Tristan did not think he was ready or even inclined to marry at this point. He did feel that his stepbrother, Alan, would benefit from settling down and sowing his seed in only one woman rather than any he could get his meaty hands onto long enough to lift his plaid. He had a quick pang of guilt as the thought that Mairghread was the sacrificial lamb flashed through his mind..."
