The second book in the Highland Warriors trilogy, in which three heroes make a pact to insure that a rival clan doesn’t take over their glen and cause destruction. At the same time, three women will plot to marry these heroes to help insure peace.
In Temptation of a Highland Scoundrel, Kendrew Mackintosh’s reputation precedes him: he wields an ax with deathly precision, strikes fear into his enemies, and lusts after beautiful women. But Kendrew has never met someone whose passion rivals his own—until an unexpected encounter with a mysterious woman. Unfortunately, he soon discovers that the vixen is Isobel Cameron, daughter of an enemy clansman. Their relationship is forbidden and Kendrew breaks away immediately. Isobel has her own scheme. She has lusted after Kendrew for some time and plans to draw the fierce warrior back into her arms. But in the darkness, villainous forces are at play—an enemy is determined to keep the two lovers apart, even if it means death.

The first book in the Highland Warriors trilogy, in which three heroes make a pact to insure that a rival clan does not take over their Glen of Many Legends. At the same time, three women plot to marry these heroes to insure peace.
In Sins of a Highland Devil, James Cameron is concerned when the King’s decree states all three neighboring clans must have a battle to the death in order to lay official claim to the sacred Glen of Many Legends. James attempts to make a pact with the heads of the other clans to fight this decree. But he ends up fighting his own fierce desire when coming head-to-head with Lady Catriona of the opposing MacDonald clan, who has her own plan for peace.

Darroc MacConacher’s clan has been driven from their land by the powerful MacKenzie family. The MacConachaers now live on a remote isle, where Darroc, as chief and leader, plots the revenge he hopes will restore his family’s name and honor. When the tides of fate land Arabella MacKenzie in his arms, Darroc can’t help but admire her strength and bravery, and much to his annoyance, he also notices her beauty. Arabella is the daughter of Darroc’s greatest foe, and a relationship with her is out of the question.
Lady Arabella doesn’t believe in grand passions. Her father has scared away every suitor who ever called on her and now none even bother to try. Finally, Arabella decides to take her life into her own hands by demanding to visit the islands that are part of her dowry. When disaster strikes at sea, Arabella is rescued by Darroc, and she is completely unprepared to discover true love in the arms of an enemy.
