Highland Fire (Guardians of the Stone Book 1) Kindle Edition

"Magical from the very start." — InD'Tale ReviewsShe was sent to kill him. She never expected to want him.In the wild heart of Medieval Scotland, Aidan dún Scoti is a chieftain forged by war, feared by kings, and bound by blood-sworn oaths. He despises alliances, distrusts peace, and has vowed never to take a bride—least of all one tied to an ancient betrayal. But when a woman bearing the stain of her father's treachery is delivered to his stronghold, Aidan faces an enemy he cannot simply put to the sword.Lìleas MacLaren comes to him as an offering of peace—and a hidden threat. Commanded to kill the dún Scoti chieftain or forfeit her only son, she enters his home cloaked in lies and desperation. Branded accursed for sins not her own, she expects hatred and gives it freely in return. What she does not expect is the dangerous pull between them, a desire that sharpens with every clash of wills.They are bound by duty, divided by blood, and driven by a passion neither can afford. Each touch is a betrayal. Each kiss a risk. And as ancient grudges rise and war closes in, Aidan and Lìleas must decide what they are willing to sacrifice—clan, crown, or each other.A sweeping enemies-to-lovers Medieval Scottish romance steeped in Celtic lore, where hatred burns hot, passion burns hotter, and love is the most dangerous weapon of all.Perfect for readers who love:– Medieval Scottish romance with Celtic magic– Fierce heroines protecting their children– Enemies-to-lovers with slow-burn tension– Warrior chieftains and forbidden passion– Ancient feuds and dangerous secretsPraise for Highland Fire & Tanya Anne Crosby“Enchanting landscapes, breathtaking betrayal, and heartwarming passion herald Tanya Anne Crosby's triumphant return to ancient Scotland.”— Glynnis Campbell, Bestselling Author“Tanya Anne Crosby is a master of her genre … Highland Fire will keep you turning the pages late into the night!”— Laurin Wittig, Bestselling Author“Crosby’s characters keep readers engaged...”— Publishers Weekly“Tanya Anne Crosby pens a tale that touches your soul and lives forever in your heart.”— Sherrilyn Kenyon, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Read more
