“Ye do everything aroond here yerself?”
“Aye.” He drove the ax into the block, then bent to gather the chopped wood.
Mailie had some idea of what that meant. There were countless things that needed attention: fire, water, food, tools, furnishings, and more. If it needed doing, he had to do it, all with little help.
“Dinna ye get lonely?”
“No.” He tossed her a reproachful look. “I like the quiet.”
She met his gaze with a pitying one of her own. “Shame. Ye’re going to miss it with me here.”
“I already do,” he countered, stacking the wood in front of the shed.

The Black Isle
Early Spring, 1712
Laird Lachlan MacKenzie, Earl of Cromartie, has a heart that is cold as ice in the black sea since his wife and toddler daughter were viciously murdered by dark jacobite supporters. Now he lives in an empty dark cold 22 room Castle totally alone with only dead ghosts for company. The only voices he now hears is his dead wife Hannah, and his young daughter Annabel. As a certain insane, unstable, and cruel villain, Earl Ranald Sinclair, is obsessed with the Mailie MacGregor. He keeps offering for her hand but her family keeps turning him away. Now he is out of options, so he asks Lachlan to abduct the lass for a very high price. A price that Lachlan could never turn away.
Information that his young daughter, Annabel, is indeed talive. Lachlan feeling so guilty he never protected Annabel and her mother all those years ago. He knows the MacGregor with their fierce and brutal reputation. If they find him he’s a dead man, the reason this evil Earl Sinclair would not do this abduction himself. It would be the first place the MacGregor’s would suspect, look, and investigate! Yet it would be a good month until Sinclair would fetch his prize. At first Mailie is ready to pounce on Laird Lachlan and kill him herself. Than as she and two orphans all fall a bit in love with this dragon beast. Can a damsel fall in love with her abductor? Will her fierce warrior family even allow him to live if they locate their missing daughter/sister? What will happen to the orphans and will his biological child Annabel ever be found? Can these two star crossed lovers ever find a hea? Or shall their future just be one of doom and gloom and despair? I advise you read this beautifully written masterpiece from start to finish! It is definitely a fast paced, action packed, emotional, romantic read, and so beautifully written.
Again Paula Quinn punches a powerful novel filled with emotional , non-stop action and passion that you won’t ever forget.
This is the seventh book in her popular Highland Heirs series. It’s is full of all the delightful elements Scottish historical readers love so much. Such a breathtaking setting-you can actually smell the heather! The dialogue is absolutely brilliant, plots within plots so cleverly phenomenal with wonderful characters that will take your breath away! Children like Lily and Will are definitely the scene stealers whether biological or adopted and the dog Ettarre, that stole my heart! I loved the older Ruth too who took care of Lachlan too. Yes dog lovers like myself will adore this novel too! This is my favorite novel in the Highland Heirs series so far, which just blew me away so much! A fabulous read Paula Quinn fans don’t want to miss!
I can’t wait for “Highland Ever After” book #8 in the Highland Heirs series, coming this December. Adam MacGregor’s story! It sounds absolutely captivating, fascinating and amazing! Another I look forward to read!
